A Birthday in Battleoff
You and Twig are getting Battleon ready for its second birthday when Paul and Storm appear by the cake. The bards say a champion from another world sent them to find its greatest hero. You agree to help before they finish explaining, and they whisk you off to Battleoff. The cake stays behind.
The champion turns out to be Drakath. In this world, Alteon the Imbalanced took the throne from Drakath’s father and sent his undead army after Gravelyn the Good. He now holds her and the Lords of Order prisoner. Drakath says Alteon plans to use the Lords to tear open reality and flood the realm with Chaos. If the Mirror Realm unravels, so will the world you came from.
Ordinarily, travelers have to trade places with their reflections to cross between the two worlds. The bards come from outside the multiverse, and you have no reflection, so all three of you can cross without a swap. Drakath keeps fighting on the front while you go after his friends.
Three Pieces of a Spell
Warlic and Cysero have found a spell that can break the shadow magic holding the Lords. The first thing it needs is the Crown of Blood. Its owner, Safiria, Queen of the Werewolves, won it by defeating the Vampire King Constantin. She’s surprised you ask for the crown instead of trying to steal it, though she still makes you earn it in battle. The second object is the Platinum Feather, which the Nugget Man uses to command an army of chickens he’s infected with Chaos.
The last object is the Shadowreaper of Doom. Its wielder is Artix, an undead DoomPaladin who commands Alteon’s army. He’s waiting in Alteon’s lair on Skullcrusher Mountain. Paul and Storm find excuses to skip the climb and promise to send Jonathan Coulton in their place. When you ask what he can do, they tell you he can sing.
The Lords of Order Go Free
You defeat the DoomPaladin and break the spell holding the Lords. Wolfwing, Escherion, and Vath recognize that Drakath has found help. Alteon appears in the hall after their release, and Drakath thanks you for freeing his friends. You return to the birthday party to find Twig sprawled on the platter beside what’s left of the cake. Your own Artix is jealous that he missed the chance to fight his undead counterpart.
Your next trip to the Mirror Realm begins with the stolen celestial egg.
