"What in the bloody hell /is/ going on then?" Anton Macrow sighs, leaning back in his chair and rubbing his forehead.
"That's the thing, High Councilman, we're not /sure/. Timestar city's reverted, the land ship /exploded/ about two hours ago, communication's still down, and we're recieving reports from all over of botched teleportation spells....." The man seems to trail off.
Anton, for his part, blinks. "What in the..."
Another figure appears. A thin male in a thick robe of black and white. Balanced... "High Councilman, I believe I can explain."
He blinks, raising an eyebrow.
"The Greater Balance of All has been thrown off. And it will be off for at least two more days."
This causes the other eyebrow on the older purplehaired man to raise. "...What happened?"
"This requires a bit of explaining, sir. As you know, Skydera Prime is watched over by the Gods and Goddesses who follow Dera's Laws." He shifts his stance a little, he looks, in fact, a little drained. "The Goddess, Isis, would be here herself, however this requires her attention. I am Sibari, the fourth Patron of Balance"
"...A half-god. I don't believe it. Go on..." Anton folds his arms and blinks, impressed.
"There are, older, more ancient gods of alternate worlds that can indirectly effect our own. I'm sure you've heard mention of the Nexus from your daughter...?" The Patron continues.
"Yes, she introduced me to Moonshadow, yes...." Anton nods.
"Well, a God that controls Barriers, Order, Travel, and other such things has recently passed on to be reborn."
"...I see."
"When he's died, he's been cut off from his providence, and he was an active god, rather than a passive guardian god. As such, when he died in the Nexus itself, it had a ripple effect that effected all the worlds connected /to/ it."
"...A ripple effect, essentually?"
"That'd be it, sir." The Patron sighs. "Until he's reborn, we expect rocky troubles..."
"...Why can't you /do/ anything?" Anton sighs, annoyed.
"By Dera's Law, the Goddesses and Gods are bound not to directly interfear with mortals. Lest we face her ressurection and retribution."
"....I see." Anton slumps. "Why are you telling me this?"
"To spread the news, mostly. Unfortantely, there's very little we can /do/ at the moment..."
"...And why exactly are you treating me with respect? I always thought your kind was mischivious..."
"Some of us are, more than others..." A slight smirk from the Patron. "I'm also bound by Her laws, being half-godling. Not to mention the fact that we, dispite some beliefs, /do/ respect you. We simply watch over you."
"..Hnn. Regardless, I thank you."
"It isn't a problem, Sir..." He fades from existance as Anton snaps back into reality.
