A battle ensues. New heroes arrive (Rydia, Cecil, Shadow, Cid, and Aerith), called on by the Planet, and join the fray A distance howl sounds the arrival of the Hound's leader, a war ridden Werewolf. The battle seems promising at first, as Sephiroth easily plunges his Masamune into the beast, but soon find that the werewolf ignores all forms of attacks and is rendered berserk. Two shots, one either eye of the beast finishes it off. Vincent Valentine arrives in time to save the day. Overwhelmed by the numbers of the approaching Imperial troops, Astral orders a retreat, taking her new allies to the Black Tower in the eastern district of the city. Cecil wanders off. At the tower they meet with the Wiseman and Guardian Ramuh, who claims that the several Guardians including himself, had broken the ancient magicks that kept the worlds divided. As a result, other unfavourable side effects would be consequential. The Heroes are offered a warm place to sleep for the night and that they would have the opportunity to discuss the issue in the morning. Day 1 Rydia, Shadow, Sephiroth, Cid, and Aerith arrive to the meeting. Hoping to be better informed of their new circumstance. Astral gives a very brief history lesson around the War of the Magi explaining the cause and time frame the division had occurred. Ramuh instructs the heroes who wish for the world to return as they were, to head to the Sacred Grounds where Gates have been established as a contingency. "...Find the gates, fight the Guardian, acquire the power..." Ronin argues about the out-worlders, wanting them to help eliminate the Empire. Astral directs them to remain uninvolved. For one she has no idea if their affect where they will end up if in their proper world should they meddle. Ronin threatens Astral and is quickly disarmed then dismissed. Cid claims that getting involved is what they do. Rydia states the same, happy for a new adventure. Introductions are made. Astral introduces herself as a pure Jenova. Rydia as a Summoner. Sephiroth is suddenly struck with the recent memories of his forgotten past and passes out. A healer is summoned. Once he is well, he vows to help. The party head out, joined by Vincent who slept in. At the Tower entrance a man name Fenris wanders in and is awe struck upon seeing Vincent and Cid. He joins the party if only to tag along with his idols. Outside, Edward is playing a melody, joined by Mog, Maverick, Gogo, and Sabin. Cloud arrives, spots Sephiroth and attacks. Cid and Vincent side with Sephiroth, while Aerith waves at Cloud but otherwise goes ignored. Cloud is arrested for disrupting the peace and is escorted into the Tower. The party crosses a hidden passage(that collapses behind them) and through a Dinosaur preservation area. Outside the 'park', each take a waiting chocobo and begin their trek toward the Shifting Forest. The party is attacked by a farmer who is accusing them of being thieves. Astral explains that he was told that these birds would be at their disposal that if there was a problem she'd gladly pay the fee. As it turns out, the thief accusation was in referral to body snatching. He thought that she was an undead in disguise. The farmer asks that she investigate the area more thoroughly in hopes that they could be rid of the undead devouring his flock. Astral reluctantly agrees and urges the party onward. "But DON'T go into the forest at night!" she warns and says that she'll be back by morning. She also notes that the farmer is making two paths instead of one. Sephiroth, bored wanders to the farm house hoping to assist. He joins Sithicus and Maverick, eliminating three guarding Wraiths who lurk in the barn. They enter the cavern and fights off 12 more Wraiths, while Maverick is forced to take cover. Astral is unable to fight the undead, and relies on Niwaka's limited magical resources. Battle complete, Astral explains to the group, what it is she's investigating. she explains that the farmer has been kidnapped is currently locked behind a barrier along with a demon. her goal is to rescue the demon, while Sephiroth and Sithicus distract the threat. Upon rescuing the farmer, Astral discovers a mark on his wrist marking him as a wizard. He is an impostor. The farmer is brought to the farmhouse where he is later interrogated rather aggressively by Sithicus, and later in a more direct though passive form by Astral. He claims that he has a gift for General Daamon from a Seraphim, who approached in him a ruined temple, across the sea. He further claims that he is not from this world. Having irked Daamon, she leaves the farmhouse instructing the newly joined Vincent and Fenris to fetch the guards who were snooping around the area earlier that day. Sithicus makes fun of the Wizard's name 'Bob' and presses him for the truth. Sephiroth is more concerned with the nature of this gift that the wizard was set to deliver. Astral re-enters the house. Alistair (not Bob as it turned out) provides a scroll, which he claimed would prove his innocence. He only hoped that the Warriors in the area knew nothing of magic. Phantom provides evidence of his presents by causing scroll and robes to apparently float across a room into the was a chance. The heroes are not convinced. Astral indicates that the spell had potential, except for the need of a sacrifice and that often times though the wizard may not make the sacrifice himself, that the spell would provide for him. A false General Daamon arrives in claims the gift from Phantom, who reveals itself in full form. Phantom offers a challenge solve it and when his power. Phantom turns himself into a monster, splitting himself in three entities. A fight ensues in the false general is killed. The group split into three parties and work as a team to fight off the threat. The battle is seamless as each party attacks their target in proper timing. The battle won, Alistair is arrested (for his own protection) and brought the the Black Tower. Where Ramuh can extract further information from him. Day 2 Sephiroth, Astral, Sithicus, Vincent, Fenris, Maverick, and Niwaka Arrives at an empty campsite. The party examines site briefly finding no sign of a struggle and assumes that the others had entered Shifting Forests against orders. Astral refuses to waste her time looking for them Astral asks about Sephiroth enhanced sight. While he concentrates on moving trees, she concentrates on the hidden bogs within the forest Astral prepares the party by explaining about the Trent trees, to simply not attack Astral gives Maverick, her coat to appease Sithicus’ paranoia about being mugged by brigands within the forest. The travel through the forests, seemingly uneventful until they find a clearing full of fairies. Niwaka dashes through the forest and eats a fairy. The pixies scatter, leaving Astral angry with Niwaka, but unable to do anything. As a result of the feline’s actions, everyone is transformed into children Once outside the forest, they are pursued by a monster, which Heidegger defeats Heidegger questions the children, and mocks them for wanting to join SOLDIER Astral constructs a quick alibi for the group and tells them to rendez-vous at Junon in case they get separated Sithicus complains, and Fenris annoys Vincent A discussion of a cure arises. Sithicus suggests the Transform Materia. Astral states, that Esuna or Remedy would be better choice due to the nature of their enchantment. When they arrive at Costa Del Sol, its still too early for shops to be open. They have free time Sephiroth finds a secluded spot on the beach where he considers his past actions and Jenova's hold over him Heidegger confronts him thinking Sephiroth to be a clone and demands the Black Materia. He soon realizes that it is Sephiroth himself that he is dealing with and is forced to change tactics, however, Heidegger is interrupted when Astral tells him to back off in her own subtle way Astral talks with Sephiroth about his brooding “If only…” She advises him to learn from his past, but to look to the future. “…Always know that I will always be there for you, no matter what you do…” Astral comes up with the plan to board one of the ships using Heidegger to her advantage. Sephiroth agrees to the plan but urges that everyone should also be taken Astral leaves a prepared and tells Sephiroth not to get captured…yet Sephiroth is assaulted by a pair of SOLDIERs attempting to capture him on Heidegger ‘s orders. He quickly disables one SOLDIER and flees leaving the remaining one to pursue him Astral collects Sephiroth and Niwaka. They are pursued by a soldier. Sithicus executes the plan. Astral cries out for help in a crowded area, searching for adult sympathy, only to acquire it from a motherly sort of woman, who confronts and humiliates Heidegger, much to everyone’s amusement Astral and Sephiroth cannot make their way through the crowd and are forced to swim to the ship where they join the others whom have hidden successfully among the cargo, taking a nap as the ship leaves port SOLDIER searches the cargo hold for the pair Astral gives Vincent the tome and map that she got from Ramuh Astral and Sephiroth initiate the capture phase of their plan in order to better gauge what Heidegger is up to.
