"Jokesum! Are you okay my dude?"He opens his left eye slightly, a green-skinned Ogre stands over himself looking concerned. "Berd? The heck happened?""You got knocked the eff out! That's what!"Grabbing Berd's outstretched hand, Jokesum is helped up by his friend as he squints at the surroundings. Looking around, the battlefield is littered with cracks in the ground, large radius splatters of dark energy and his other friends attacking the last three General's of evil.Shaking his head slightly, he looks down at his hands that are no longer Android in nature but red skinned. Feeling the top of his head, aside from his fedora he feels his curled horns on either side."Is he back to being with us, Berd?""Yeah, yeah! Let's go Jokes, wouldn't want Mood to have all the fun!"Reaching to his left side, he notices his dark oak rod that has a giant crack deep in the wood. Then, appearing in front of himself, Father Time looks towards him and frowns."You saw a different reality, didn't you Jokesum?"Eyes wide, he takes a step back from the powerful being."Uh, yes. Though, what do you mean?"Stroking his long white beard, Father Time then clicks his right hand into a fist as the glass eye of sight is then taken from Jokesum's back and hovering above their hand."This item should never have been given to you. I apologies for not informing you sooner, but this item skews the bearers perception of reality."Fighting continues in the background while the two converse, Jokesum continues to listen."If you would, please gift this item to myself and I shall happily give you money in exchange for it.""Oh, okay. Thank you, Phoenix!"Nodding towards the powerful time keeper, Jokesum then finds a bag of gold floating in front of himself."Now then, these being of evil really shouldn't have come here. Do you mind clearing them out with your friends, Jokesum?"Smiling towards the small, red Tiefling, Father Time tilts his head as he awaits for an answer."Oh, of course! We're here to help!"As Jokesum rushes away from Phoenix, the master of time watches him rejoin his group and eradicate the ground of the remaining evil. He then nods and disappears out of sight."Okay, all good and finished! Nice work Hunter's Guild!"There is a cheer from the Good Guys as the four group members smile at one another, they nod and then bow towards the applauding audience as a small group of misfits approach them all."Oh, you had help then fellas?""Oh, hey Smikes! Yeah, these guys helped us defeat the Generals!"A odd looking being surrounded by its cohorts, of varying creatures spoke up. Standing five and a half feet, with a large Gnomish hat and a jacket covering most of its face, Smikes has no indication of its true being."So, this area is clear...right?"Though all of the enemies are gone, Fylec speaks up stating the obvious."Oh, yeah we're done here. Though, I suppose we'll need to find Nodwu and see if he needs any help."Looking around at each other as Fylec shrugs, the Hunter's Guild then look towards Fox Boy after he had said this."Uh, Fylec doesn't need help.""Okay, I didn't say Fylec though did I?"Still confused by the orange furred being, they then all look puzzled as General Mood speaks up."I'm sorry, for Berd's silliness. We're just all confused, Fylec's surname is Nodwu. But you're not talking about him."There is a slight unease amongst the Good Guys as Matt Dank then coughs slightly before speaking."Oh, now I get it! Our two realities have beings with the same surname. Bob Nodwu is a resident elsewhere that we know of."There is a slight murmur amongst the four friends as they all then nod in understanding. Smikes lets out a slight chuckle."I've got to say, you sure do pick them Fox Boy!""Fox Boy didn't pick them, Smikes. That was all on the Dankalage!"Smirking after hearing Roaster chime in, Smikes then shakes his head and shrugs his shoulders."The blame game, really Roastino? Gees, it is a wonder how you get anything done.""Hey, at least we don't need help with our area when evil lands!"Berd and Fylec look at each other, then towards Ted who clicks his neck after speaking and returns to his short fluffy bear form."But, you did need our help. Each direction had something wrong with it and you were aided by us.""Alright, I can see that this conversation is getting you guys nowhere. Grul, Frut, prepare the teleporter for our guests so that they can go and aid Bob Nodwu."A seven foot tall, four legged, lizard nods towards Smikes as it is joined by a blue-feathered bird as the two then close their eyes and chant a mantra generating the portal required for the team to leave."Good, Bad, Ugly and Others. Allow this group to travel further afield!"
