Dialogue
*Somewhere unknown, in almost complete darkness, a figure sits with a glowing green crown suspended above their head, a Maleurous mask covering their face, and some kind of boned gauntlet on their right arm; Remthalas hovers nearby.*
Remthalas: It's always dragons with you. You know, I could help with the nightmares, if you'd let me.
???: Our burdens are ours alone to bear. They are what they are.
???: The terror begets peace.
*The unknown figure pauses to contemplate Remthalas' presence.*
???: To what pleasure do we owe this visit?
Remthalas: I know what you're planning. I come merely to warn you.
Remthalas: The champions of the Avatars are not to be underestimated.
???: They have not yet met us.
Remthalas: True, true. But they've proven quite capable so far. And I hold a personal interest in one of them.
???: Are we to leave that one to you then?
Remthalas: If you would be so kind.
???: Very well.
Remthalas: Ah, but their dragon–
???: ...
Remthalas: I have no need of it. Do with it what you will.
???: Then let them come.
???: And if they don't, we shall hunt them to the ends of Lore.
*Elsewhere, your dragon appears to just be waking up.*
<Dragon>: Mmrrmph.
*You, your dragon, and Uaanta have once again been summoned to the Firmament by the Avatars.*
Voidstar: There is no time to explain!
Fiamme: You must go, now! The Maleurous is already getting away!
Uaanta: Makers, is-is everything okay?
<Character>: Look, calm down for a moment. What's going on?
*Without a moment's hesitation, the Avatars have teleported you to Azaveyr, signified by the pink trees.*
If you have a Dragon Amulet:
<Dragon>: Did I miss something again?
<Dragon>: What's all this?
If you don't have a Dragon Amulet:
<Dragon>: *Sleepy yawn*
<Character>: Let's see...
*You, your dragon, and Uaanta take a look at your new surroundings; there appears to have been some kind of assault and theft, as a golden coffin lies empty before you, surrounded by broken golems and foreign mages, presumably dead.*
<Character>: What happened here? I've never seen anything like this before. Uaanta, is this familiar to you?
Uaanta: Can't say it is.
Uaanta: It looks real–
Uaanta: –fancy though.
*You all have been teleported back to the Firmament.*
Uaanta: You know, you kind of do get used to all this teleporting after a while.
<Character>: Avatars, what's happening?
If you have a Dragon Amulet:
<Dragon>: WHOA!
<Dragon>: Hello, shiny people!
If you don't have a Dragon Amulet:
<Dragon>: *Shocked gasp*
<Dragon>: *Greetings chirp!*
Haeos: We were too late. We stalled. We took too long–
Fiamme: We could try to catch up. The Champions could intercept–
Celeritas: But they are shrouded now. How could we have not seen this coming?
Temblor: Where did they take it?
<Character>: Um. Hello?
Neso: We must... we must remain calm. We mustn't give in.
<Character>: Deep breaths, Avatars.
<Character>: Wait, do you even breathe?
Uaanta: <Character>!
*The Avatars take a moment to calm themselves before briefing you all on the events that have just transpired.*
Voidstar: Champions, one of the Maleurous has become active.
<Character>: We figured as much...
Kyanos: The one known as The Angel of Azaveyr has made their move against us.
Kyanos: Against Lore.
Temblor: The Angel stole an artifact of immense importance from its determined place.
Celeritas: We may have been overzealous in our... initial response.
Voidstar: We apologize.
Uaanta: We apologize as well, Makers.
<Character>: We do?
Uaanta: We should have been able to–
Kyanos: No.
Kyanos: By the time we summoned you, it was already taken.
Khazri: You will have to retrieve the artifact for us.
<Character>: So, who is this "Angel"? And... why is <Dragon> here?
Fiamme: The Angel of Azaveyr was a champion of her people. A powerful mage and mighty warrior.
Temblor: But at her final stand, she allowed herself to become bonded to a spirit of Doom in exchange for the ability to wipe out her foes.
Kyanos: Now they live a cursed life, filled with hatred and fury.
Voidstar: <Dragon> is here because the e–
Haeos: Because the foes that The Angel fought so long ago were dragons.
<Character>: Wait, if The Angel is good at fighting dragons, wouldn't that be a bad thing?
Celeritas: The Angel fought many dragons and people. But not at the same time. Not on the same side.
Khazri: We believe that your... unpredictability as a pair may prove a boon here.
Uaanta: What are we to do then, Makers?
Fiamme: We will send you as close as we can to their sanctuary. It is a place of Doom, and must be cleansed.
Neso: Are you prepared, Champions?
Uaanta: I am, Makers.
<Character>: As ready as I'll ever be.
<Character>: <Dragon>?
If you have a Dragon Amulet:
<Dragon>: This "Angel" doesn't stand a chance against us!
If you don't have a Dragon Amulet:
<Dragon>: *Confident growl*
<Character>: Oh wait, before we go. Have you heard of Lock and–
<Character>: –Key?
*Before you can complete your sentence, you have been teleported elsewhere by the Avatars.*
<Character>: They really need to get better at not teleporting us mid-sentence...
Uaanta: ...
<Character>: Uaanta, are you okay?
Uaanta: Yes... yes, I am. It's just... difficult to see the Makers in a moment of weakness.
<Character>: Oh right, you're used to them being all powerful beings. But believe me, they've made their share of mistakes.
Uaanta: Thoughts for another time. What are we dealing with here?
*You, your dragon, and Uaanta examine your new surroundings once again.*
<Character>: Are these all... bones?
Uaanta: It's... horrible. You can feel the weight of the tragedy that transpired in this cursed place...
If you have a Dragon Amulet:
<Dragon>: It's just some old bones. Who cares?
If you don't have a Dragon Amulet:
<Dragon>: *Indifferent grunt*
<Character>: Those are dragon bones, <Dragon>. And humans too.
If you have a Dragon Amulet:
<Dragon>: Yeah, but they're dead, and we're not. What's the big deal?
If you don't have a Dragon Amulet:
<Dragon>: *Curious grumble*
Uaanta: Ah, in all of this chaos, I don't think we've been properly introduced.
Uaanta: You must be <Dragon>. My name is Uaanta. It is my honor to finally formally meet you.
If you have a Dragon Amulet:
<Dragon>: Hello, old lady!
If you don't have a Dragon Amulet:
<Dragon>: *Cheerful greeting*
<Character>: Are there any dragons back in Lhe'Shyiac, Uaanta?
Uaanta: The very few dragons I know of are ancient and revered, guardians of the oldest temples.
Uaanta: Who knew they were so majestic, even when young?
If you have a Dragon Amulet:
<Dragon>: I like this one, <Character>. Can I keep her?
If you don't have a Dragon Amulet:
<Dragon>: *Proud chirp*
*You glare at your dragon.*
<Character>: Anyway, now that we're here, where is this sanctuary? I just see bones, bones, and more bones.
Uaanta: Perhaps we should start digging?
*You turn around, noticing your dragon has flown off somewhere.*
<Character>: <Dragon>! Where are you going?
If you have a Dragon Amulet:
<Dragon>: This way!
<Dragon>: I... I have a good feeling about this direction!
If you don't have a Dragon Amulet:
<Dragon>: *Beckoning chirp*
*You and Uaanta follow your dragon to what appears to be the mouth of a cave; a literal mouth of a dragon's skeleton.*
Uaanta: Well done, <Dragon>! Now that's an entrance if I've ever seen one.
<Character>: <Dragon>... how did you know to come this way?
If you have a Dragon Amulet:
<Dragon>: I'm not sure. It just felt... right.
If you don't have a Dragon Amulet:
<Dragon>: *Uncertain growl*
<Character>: Hmm. Let's be careful then.
Uaanta: Agreed.
*Presumably inside the cave, the Angel of Azaveyr now sits alone, with a locked chest to their right.*
Calm
in this darkened crypt, the screams
and roars no longer haunt
me, yet the voice whispers still,
murmurs still,
carries me, drives me, sustains me–
a bond forged in desperation,
a magick unleashed and radiant
with fury, with vengeance, with justice.
And yet a voice whispers still,
my eternal vigil.
While in these empty catacombs, I await
the calm.
