[Not long after the end of the battle against Quintus, Seta contacts the members of Project Unification through a video message. From her expression, it is clear that something urgent has come up.]

Good day.

I apologize for having to make this request in times like these...I am aware of the threat that The Lady poses, and it is not one that I take lightly...

Today, I will require the assistance of a few of our fighters to deal with an immediate problem in the Kijin World.

The time flow between our worlds has stabilized for the moment. The sooner we solve this issue, the sooner we may return and continue our battle here.

-

1. [For those who agreed to follow, the only, and heavily guarded entrance to the Kijin World is now located at the old Gloster Foundation HQ.

The Gate is easily large enough for mecha to go through, and beyond it lies the strange realm of the Kijin - looking much like it did before with endless floating platforms and pieces of broken structures suspended in mid air by an unseen force.

However, there is a different feeling in its atmosphere: it seems less chaotic and more calm. Another easily noticeable change is the presence of an enormous floating city that appears to be built using the many broken pieces from the surroundings. This is your destination for now.

Upon arrival, you are greeted by the cheers of a mostly white-silver haired crowd. There are no hostile or questioning stares from these Kijin, only looks of admiration as you are paraded down the streets. This is a celebration for the arrival of heroes.

At the end of a long main road that leads to a grand plaza is a magnificent white citadel. And at its entrance: three figures, dressed in dark blue and gold, await. They immediately kneel as the Project Unification members arrive, along with their Empress.]


Welcome back, Your Majesty.


And welcome, heroes of Unity Group! It is an honor to meet you all in person.


...I wish it was under better circumstances. But we're glad to have you here with us.


Cebrail, Kalash, Memno. It is good to see that you are all well.

[As Seta addresses them, the three look somewhat nervous.]

-

2. [After a small tour to get used to the environment, it's time to get down to business. The throne room comes equipped with a magical projector device that displays a hologram of a large building, covered from top to bottom in a blood-red glow.

It is Memno who speaks first.]


...And this is our problem. We call it The Tower, and it's been here for a very long time. Even before the time of the last Emperor.

Lately, it's been spitting out hostile beings that started to attack Kijin in the surroundings. Their numbers are growing, and we're spread too thin to contain it for much longer.


[Cebrail, who is now wearing a pair of glasses, adjusts them.]


From bits of information I have been able to gather from the elders in that region, The Tower's original purpose was to serve as the final test of the one who is to become the next ruler of the Kijin. The would be ruler ascends with his closest allies. Reaching the top means success, and the right to rule is theirs.

Unfortunately, Invicta ruled our realm for so long, that any knowledge of what lies within has been lost. Her Majesty is not one to take unnecessary risks, either, so we have avoided contact with the structure until now...



Hehe, we could have just let Vallar try to climb it alone to clear the way for us like he wanted to. If he came back from it, we'd know its safe!


Vallar is indeed our hardest hitter. Amusing as it is, I doubt he could do it alone, and at the same time, we are at a disadvantage without him, seeing as he is crucial in all of our strategies. Perhaps, as younger Kijin, we simply aren't ready for this challenge...

Regardless, I propose that we climb the Tower as soon as possible to alleviate the problem and prevent casualties. With Earth's mightiest warriors here, we will be able to do it for certain.



...

[Despite the fact that her friends are taking all this quite well, Seta still looks rather worried.]
