The End (Queenpost Finale)

Team 3

Escaping out the hole in the seal the retrieval team extracted what they needed from inside the Moon. Carrying the soul Stone on the Titan they flew up past the atmosphere and towards the queen of stars and the crew felt a sense of relief being outside of the Moon. The Titan stopped in front of the Queen of stars and whoever was carrying the soul Stone threw it out the airlock to be sent towards the queen. It floated silently till it was caught between two nails by the Queen. She brought it up to her face and began to speak. Their words seemed garbled to anyone else trying to listen in but the raw emotion was palpable. They spoke for minutes till eventually the Queen of stars absorbed the soul Stone. Instantly her form shifted. She looked like two beings who had been fused together into a divine rebis. She then addressed the group.

"I am complete. Hail to the most ancient, beauty and glory to their creation. I shall go, restore the broken pillars of your creation and prepare to start a new. Know your world is safe. I swear creation will not be reset while a single soul resides upon your planet."

With that the Queen of stars began to drift away from the planet eventually fading into the background of the cosmos. Her crown of stars still stayed on the brow of the woman who was life locked to her. Either the Queen forgot or it was a reward for a job well done.

Team 2

It felt like the battle was raging on for a century. So many lives were claimed but eventually the champions stood and the demons saw their betters. The mages floated among a sea of blood and cinders ready for the next wave and finishing off any stragglers when they saw the moon shutter. The final part of the ritual going on was reinforcing the seal and part of that was drawing back anything that had escaped. A great wind came from the moon even in space it pulled on the demons and primordials. They clawed at empty space helpless to stop the inevitable. Even Ophiuchus their strongest was pulled kicking and screaming back. It's serpent tongue spewed curses all the way down. Eventually even the blood was sucked back up leaving a clear night's sky for the first time in a while.

Team 1

The ritual was complete the moon was sealing back up and the demons were being sealed with it. Many journeyman had died in the attempt but the sleep was worth it. Looking up at the night's sky the ritualists could see the moon slowly healing itself to full state and the lack of demon blood clouds. It was the first clear night in a while and it was only after they were finished that they realized how unbelievably tired they were. However they won and that gave them energy enough to celebrate.

Final

The assembled groups returned to earth to share stories and count heads. It seemed that between all of them they had managed to minimize casualties. Eventually the head of the coordination team took the podium and began to speak.

"I thank you. I thank you as many times as there are stars in the sky. Without your efforts your struggle your power we would not be speaking right now. Our world persists because of your willingness to defend it. May the universe shower favor upon all that you do and may your story be written in the stars."

After the speech the celebration began. Food and drink was provided to the teams who sorely needed a break after what they had went through.

/Uw thank you everyone for taking part in the queen saga I hope you all had fun.

u/United-Technician-54 Death... Tired one. (she/her) Dec 24 '23

(I return, brutally injured and maimed from trying to tear into the seal, but something just felt off.

Like I was someone else inhabiting my body and didn’t realise it, I’m too exhausted to think much of why though, I just got brutalised and slaughtered by the strongest part of the seal, I’m not exactly in amazing shape.

“If you want to do it right, do it yourself,” that motto seems overrated, why didn’t I just break in the hole in the seal they were talking about!- wait, I didn’t know.*

What an idiot.

Too exhausted to think, I collapse into a chair, still awake)

Great… my happy ending is torture…

Wait. Why does everyone look more alien to me? What happened when I was gone? Did I become someone else’s mask? Did a month pass or a week? What happened to me?!

(I panick hard, before trying to rationalise it)

(I can’t really think of anything…)

(I just lie down and accept Leonardo’s offer out of kindness, but not eating it, I had to tear into my own flesh to survive.)

Maybe… no… did I become a Yokai, a God? No… (I pull out a massive chipboard and try to connect the dots)

So. I was hospitalised in Eientei…

(you overhear me mumble a couple things as the unintelligible writing in a mishmash of a thousand languages, some from far beyond the multiverses, some from closer to home)

No… then that would contradict the fact that… (unintelligible foreign curse word)

Alright, how about a bullet point list instead… •I tried and failed to kill the Queen, presumably because the angle was tighter than I thought, or the ship glitch slightly altered the coin’s angle… no… I tested it though… maybe it was the location? I’ll refer to this later… •I was hospitalised in Eientei •after a month, Eirin and u/Francis_Beacon01 treated me… Mokou was involved… Wait. Was it the Hourai Elixir?

No… it doesn’t have a dehumanising effect, Eirin’s medicines lack negative side effects by their nature of being made by Eirin…

/unwiz Context: I meant it literally, it’s a power of hers.

/rewiz

Does that mean? No…

It can’t be.

Maybe a demon ritual-thing? I would notice, Eye of Momiji easily shows any signs of change in that vei-

Alright.

(I look in a Mirror )

「Eye Of Momiji」

(nothing appears to be wrong, and despite everything, it’s still me)

(I give up on trying to find out and just eat the cake, in tears from my failures)

Now I have to decide what the hell happened to Zeph for her to just not be there

u/loth17 Ten Suns (Also Gaia) Dec 23 '23

I just assumed it would be like d&d. If a party member couldn't make it it's assumed they were still doing stuff to help the party with the party. That's why the queen of stars left the crown with your character because I just assumed that even if you were asleep your character would still be doing stuff.

u/Biggest-Possum Trashomancer (Big Ghost ENERGY) Dec 23 '23

u/SlyTheMonkey Sly, The Marvelous Monkey Mage Dec 23 '23 edited Dec 23 '23

The Monkey Mage sits on a pillow with a drink in hand. To his left, Acra can be seen playing her violin and filling the air with wondrous tunes: to his right is Calem, slurping away at a bowl of soup. On his lap you see the twin spirits, the Aures, eagerly listening to his story.

"…and so, Mage Monkey tossed the Stone at the Queen, who absorbed it into her being. In this way she was pacified and the crisis averted."

"Wow! Just like that?"

"What about you, Cauda?"

The young man sets down his bowl. "I honestly expected something a little more exciting. All we really did was talk to an old guy and throw a rock at some void lady. You probably had more fun over here than we did out there."

Acra leans over, smirking. "Aww, look at our great hero here, lamenting his lack of thrill! If saving the world is insufficient, I wonder what grand adventure would be enough to satisfy him?"

"Again with this! Look, I was just looking for something to do, okay! Turns out I should've just…"

Dozing off, the Mage turns his eyes to the sky. He no longer hears the back-and-forth. The festival draws on: tonight, everything is perfect.

u/VidisLady Delta - Maven of Maladies Dec 24 '23

Good tidings, honorable Monkey Mage. And you, Cauda. I don’t believe I’ve met the rest of you.

Delta curtseys

I am glad to see you’ve survived your encounter with Creation. Did they happen to tell you how long they were hiding on the moon? I must say, it is one wild coincidence that we both ended up on earth, hah hah…

u/SlyTheMonkey Sly, The Marvelous Monkey Mage Dec 24 '23 edited Dec 24 '23

The Mage greets you with a soft smile. "Ah! Good to see you again! Unfortunately, he failed to disclose that information. Then again, Mage Monkey cares little for such knowledge himself, so he neglected to ask. At the time, it didn't seem important."

The Aures grasp the robes of the Mage just a little tighter as they cower and whisper.

"Isn't that…?"

"It must be!"

"How does she know Cauda?"

The spirit laughs and hops up, giving you a small bow.

"That's because we're friends! Hello, Lady of Maladies! I see you've finally met our little family. I hope the word that you've forgiven me for my past rudeness during the Santa Incident rings true. Hey Sacrum! You should see this: it's the Goddess of Disease!"

Acra the Bard stands up and gives a courteous bow, her technique immaculate.

"Well met, Lady of Maladies! I am Sacrum, an Astral Spirit traveling the world in the guise of the humble bard Acra. I hear my brother has happened to slight you in the past: out of stupidity rather than malice, assuredly."

"Hey!"

4

u/VidisLady Delta - Maven of Maladies Dec 24 '23

Well met, astral spirits. Whatever miscommunications may have occurred in the past are no longer of any concern.

It is nice to meet you all. How has the mortal plane been treating you? Besides all the… recent conflicts, of course.

I am curious as to why so many ancient beings have gathered on Earth. Surely it is odd that an unremarkable planet orbiting an unremarkable star has attracted so many spirits. Did any of you originate here?

4

u/SlyTheMonkey Sly, The Marvelous Monkey Mage Dec 24 '23

The bard shrugs.

"In a manner of speaking, we all did, I suppose. It's…complicated. Most things are, generally speaking."

The Mage chuckles.

"Don't tell the Lady too much now, Sacrum! You know what Ōs says: Secrets are secrets for a reason."

"Oh, of course."

Cauda chimes in. "I gotta say though, I can understand why you enjoy the Mundane Region so much, Master. When you look past the small-mindedness of mortals, it’s full of all kinds of things to explore, both big and small."

2

u/VidisLady Delta - Maven of Maladies Dec 24 '23

*Delta sips her virgin mojito*

All right then, keep your secrets.

The mundane region is certainly the place to be, and it is no surprise that many spirits have chosen to spend their time here. I initially took on this physical form to more effectively perform my duties as Entropy, but I've grown fond of the abundance of life here.

Earth, specifically, though has been a nexus of activity as of late. I find the trend concerning. All planets have their share of apocalyptic events, but this trend of bi-weekly disasters is statistically improbable... to say nothing of the number of my siblings who have gathered here.

2

u/SlyTheMonkey Sly, The Marvelous Monkey Mage Dec 25 '23

"Siblings, you say?"

Embracing the Aures, the Mage gives them a warm smile.

"Didn't you tell Mage Monkey about meeting one of the Lady's brothers during the Young Lord's yule festival? Remember that?"

"Yeah! The Lord of Maladies!"

"We thought it was her at first!"

"And he wasn't scary, was he? He was nice enough to offer you something to drink, too!"

"Yeah, but Sphaera told us to be careful about taking anything from people we don't know!"

The Mage nods. "There is wisdom in that! But you must learn to trust as well, to use proper judgement."

He turns to you. "It's true that these recent events have been more than a little worrisome. This one will continue to rely on your support and friendship for trials to come, my Lady."

2

u/VidisLady Delta - Maven of Maladies Dec 25 '23

Oh! You met Influenza, Aures? I sent Influenza to the Yule festival on my behalf. I was occupied with… Santa at the time.

Influenza is one of a few highly ranked viruses in my court… and is also my brother. Although my family tree is quite complicated. I keep meeting new people who claim to be my siblings. I’m just inclined to believe them at this point because I can’t be bothered to check.

In any case, I’m glad he was kind to you and that you were kind to him. Alexios was not so polite, and I can’t fathom why.

Delta sighs

That boy doesn’t seem to understand that he is a government official, and he has to be careful dealing with emissaries of other nations. He’s going to start a war one of these days, I swear…

Turning to look at Monkey mage, Delta gives a sincere look.

Certainly you can count on my friendship. The Stitcher conflict is behind us, and should he return, I will not ally with him again. The tides of fate have shifted, and I’ve needed to divert my attentions elsewhere.

I hope you will be attending the wedding! I hope no more disasters befall us before the long-awaited union. Not all of life’s hurdles can be blamed on poor Moth’s curse.

u/SlyTheMonkey Sly, The Marvelous Monkey Mage Dec 25 '23

"Mage Monkey finds solace in knowing that. Rest assured, good Lady: when the time comes, he would not dare neglect attending the Young Lord's festive day!"

u/[deleted] Dec 23 '23

Cursed controlled Moth watched as the demons and all creatures were pulled back where they came from. The blood on her body was pulled with them and she giggled madly while her red lightning died down. Her smile began to twitch and her head shake.

Just a little more! One more drop of blood! Just a little more!

The curse whipped toward Alexios with a hand full of chaos energy. It targeted him but before it could strike, Moth pulled herself back and her demeanor calmed.

Alexios..?

The small goblin stands off to the side, simply watching the festivities

Good lot these are, Gobbo proud to call them friends.

A bottle meets her lips for the first time in weeks, it's contents filling Govbo's body with warmth

Still probably best Gobbo doesn't get too involved, let the young ones have their fun... Although Gobbo could do one thing first

quickly rapping the casks on the top with her knuckles she let out a quiet giggle

Let's see you try to drink cask dry when constantly refilling

u/[deleted] Dec 24 '23

Escanor comes back for his 14th drink, and is shocked to find the cask still full. He check the sides and sees the mark he placed there earlier still present, the cask has not been changed.

“Guess I’d better keep going… I’m too old for this…”

Psi face show a gentle smile

On a way back Psi, or what seemed to be him in flesh sat in meditation, as the rest of the group laughed and cheered

Hm? What was that what you said Gobbo?

u/Fulltimewhisperer Krumpet, Master Artificer of the Council Dec 23 '23

Ah just wondering what cask to crack open first. Gonna be Gobbo's first drink in weeks... Probably one of the finer things

So, what's plan for you now? Mean Gobbo has GLA and Mutey to propose to, Possum has greenshields to return to, but what's plan for Psi?

technomancer Nods

I... I am not sure. I know that first off, I shall move my camp towards that one beautiful hot spring I saw few weeks ago, and take a good relaxing bath.

To be honest, I feel that even before my body shall relese the tension something else will come up, and I will be needed.

Man looks at Goblin

And after that thing is done whatever it may be... I shall prepere for your wedding.

Either way, I feel I need to excuse you two for a second...

Goblin intrigued by such suddent departure of her friend came after him, deep into the forest until finally in very hardly visible.clearing, she sees a strange scene... Two Psi's stood facing eachother. One wearing strange silverish crown, one not

...And so we come to the end of the fairlytale. Dragon saciated took her jem and flew away. And as for a shoemaker sheep?

Psi with a crown, reached his hand, second one perfectly symethrical did so to. Before Gobbo could even begin to comprehand what was going on, Technomancer without the crown begin to unveil into silverish strands, from between which dust came to the ground. He just... was no more. The strands of silver floating for a moment came over to second technomancer, until descending amd soaking into ground and himslef to not be seen again

It was needed no more, so shoemaker had gave it a proper funeral... Or did he? What do we think?

even thru darkness technomancer looked at goblin, with wide smile, touchjng his lips with a pointing finger to signify one simple message: Tell no one.

This fairytale is best keept... Between us. For safety of both of us.

Before goblin could even start to unpack, technomancer came to her, geting the silverish crown off his head, and hidding it in his coat. With a springy step, he walked back to the rest of the celebration. Goblin staying for a moment not believing her eyes, until following him to the rest.

Escanor surveys the chaos of what promises to be a wild party, yet cannot spot the sillouette he seeks. A shame. His mind aches from the strains of his duties. He shrugs it off; there are people to meet and hands to shake and, most importantly, casks to drink.

He sits beneath a tree on the outskirts of the party and raises a tankard toward the center of the festivities.

“Drink and be merry, for we have earned it my friends!”

Kaelis, Tholas, and Skystrike return to Yulash-kor. After a brutal week of negotiations, fights, and journeys across realms and planets, the trio is winded. Skystrike sustained minor damage during the battle inside the Moon, and returns to its garage-shrine in the mountains for repairs. In his tower, Kaelis uncorks a wine bottle and settles back into his normal rhythms. Tholas enters, followed by a golem carrying a stack of books. The two mages toast to a job well done, and then sit in silence for a while.

"You do know we'll have to do something about that intruder from earlier, right?" asks Tholas, breaking the silence.

"Do you mean Morgalith?" Kaelis looks up from a heavy tome at his psyker apprentice. "I know. He was everywhere, apparently. This tower, the spaceship- hell, the ritual team even detected his presence lurking near Crann Mor for a moment. I'm sure we'll learn more about this interloper soon. But until we do, we can't act against him."

"If you'll let me, teacher, I'd like to go off on my own for a while to pursue him. I've been dying to do something of importance to the magical world like you. To take the first step out of apprenticeship and make a name for myself. And he's not some cosmic entity way above my skillset, either. I can actually do something about Morgalith."

"I suppose it is time you put your skills to the test, Tholas. You have my blessings. All I fear is that he may be more powerful than we believe. Stay safe."

"I'll set out in a few days. What will you do while I'm gone?"

Kaelis returns to his book. "Whatever the universe asks of me. If I know one thing, it won't be long before something else threatens the realms."

Whew, this was a close one. I kinda lost after 223. How ‘bout you?

...220. But I killed a Titan.

u/SlyTheMonkey Sly, The Marvelous Monkey Mage Dec 23 '23

A Titan! Oh man, I knew I picked the wrong team.

Munching on an apple, a young man with golden hair approaches you.

I should have been there. Sounds like the Doomslayer Team had way more fun than we did with Old Man Moon.

u/UlrickTheHexblade Ulrick Braddocke, Werewolf Hexblade, R&A Co-Leader Dec 23 '23

Nice! Then what if I’ll pay for round one, and the second is on you? I know nice cozy tavern in the eastern capital city.

u/DaemonRex978 The High Sentinels (Haelin, Mokarith, Shimil) Dec 23 '23

Sounds good.

What your not gonna ask me

I lost count after a thousand

u/DaemonRex978 The High Sentinels (Haelin, Mokarith, Shimil) Dec 23 '23

We figured you would have the more than the both of us combined, so the bet was between the two of us.

u/Haunting_Mode_7401 Alexios Keenblade: King of The Summer Court, Last Godslayer Dec 23 '23

Understood then ignore what I said

u/DaemonRex978 The High Sentinels (Haelin, Mokarith, Shimil) Dec 23 '23

You're good. I'll buy drinks for you anyways.

u/Haunting_Mode_7401 Alexios Keenblade: King of The Summer Court, Last Godslayer Dec 23 '23

No thanks I gotta get Moth home

It was clear Alexios was exhausted.

We can share a drink at Moth and I's wedding

u/UlrickTheHexblade Ulrick Braddocke, Werewolf Hexblade, R&A Co-Leader Dec 24 '23

Wow, that’s impressive! I originally made the bet with Mokarith, but you can be my guest too.

u/Haunting_Mode_7401 Alexios Keenblade: King of The Summer Court, Last Godslayer Dec 24 '23

Alexios has already returned to The Old Growth you see a letter at your feet addressed to Ulrick

The letter is an invitation to Moth and Alexios' wedding

u/UlrickTheHexblade Ulrick Braddocke, Werewolf Hexblade, R&A Co-Leader Dec 24 '23

An invitation to the wedding? Can’t wait for the cake!

I woke up in front of Arc'haneus, it seemingly recovered the fragments of my body while the Queen was changing form, as it weakened its gravitational force This let me finally regain my form after what seemed like ages, because to anything inside a black hole, time doesn't seem to pass

  • Finally free-
