In the picturesque setting of Hotel Antlers, amidst the variegated lumber and the hodgepodge warmth of a cabin-esque room, an unexpected adventure unfolds. Antoinette, referred to as Toni, encounters Theo, a man burdened with the care of a feisty little dragon concealed under his jacket. The dragon, much to everyone’s surprise, breathes a tiny puff of flame, setting Theo’s jacket ablaze and catapulting the room into chaos. Theo’s frantic attempts to douse the flames only add to the frenzy, as the dragon, seemingly enjoying the turmoil, makes a dramatic escape, fluttering away with childish glee.

Caught in the moment, Theo, bewildered and singed, laments the loss of what he believed could have been his passage to fame and fortune. He turns to Antoinette, seeking validation and companionship in this bizarre incident, suggesting they could still approach the news with their story – after all, Antoinette is a scientist, or so he believes.

Antoinette, however, sees this chaotic turn of events as an opportunity to delve deeper into her own intentions. With Theo distracted, she deftly administers a syringe, blurring his recent memories with a concoction known only to her. Posing the incident as an unfortunate accident caused by her cigarette, she feigns apology, perfectly playing the part of a concerned bystander. As Theo’s memories of the dragon and the fire dissolve into a hazy blur, he finds himself disoriented, unsure of the preceding events, questioning the sudden lightheadedness overcoming him.

Believing Antoinette’s explanation and doubting his own recollection, Theo wanders off to rest, his thoughts scattered and his sense of reality altered. Thus concludes a peculiar encounter, woven with elements of fantasy, intrigue, and manipulation—a fleeting adventure that blurs the lines between what was real and what was carefully orchestrated by Antoinette, leaving behind a trail of bewilderment and forgotten wonders.

Antoinette's encounter with Theo outside her house was unexpected and unusual. Theo, a jittery man with a concealed supernatural creature beneath his jacket, was initially defensive when Antoinette caught sight of the small, iridescent dragon-like being peeking out. His nervous ramblings about science and groundbreaking discoveries did little to hide his true intentions. Antoinette, with her background in science and experience in the Godrealms, recognized the creature as something far from ordinary, likely a dragon from another realm. Showing a mix of curiosity and caution, she approached Theo, offering her help under the guise of shared scientific interest. Throughout their conversation, Theo revealed how he discovered the creature in a mysterious, seemingly artificial cave deep in the forest, marked with strange symbols.

As Antoinette probed further, Theo's reluctance to return the creature to its natural habitat became evident. He feared the cave's abandoned state and the potential death of the creature if left behind. His protective stance shifted to a defensive one as he insisted that leaving it there wasn't a good idea, rationalizing his decision by highlighting the cave's stale, undisturbed air and lack of caretaker presence. Antoinette, expressing genuine interest and concern, cautiously proposed that the creature might still be under someone's watch and suggested its return, hinting at the dangers of removing such beings from their natural environments. Despite his resistance, Theo, now slightly more open yet still protective of the dragon, introduced himself, marking the beginning of a complex dialogue about responsibility, discovery, and the supernatural world's precarious balance.

In the heart of Kyoto, a group consisting of a demonborn named Takeshi, a magical practitioner named Lynette, a supernatural entity Edith, and a companion named Raina embarked on a mission to retrieve a powerful and cursed artifact known as the Hollow Bloom. Their journey led them to navigate through a series of perilous encounters, revealing the depths of darkness and the complexities of power that lay beneath the ancient city.

Commencing their mission, the group encountered a trio of demonborn adversaries, skilled in combat and resistance. Thanks to the unique abilities of Takeshi and the strategic contributions of his companions, they overcame this challenge, delving deeper into the heart of danger. They next faced a grave showdown with a lethal ninja and his cybernetic warriors amidst risen undead, a battle that tested their limits and required the full extent of their might, strategy, and mystical prowess.

Edith, wielding dark sorcery far beyond the arcane, played a crucial role in their success, channeling the ancient and potent forces that thrived within the gloomy confines of their battlefield. Lynette's magical manipulations confused and shattered the opposition, adding layers of cunning to their strategy. Raina's precision and unwavering resolve ensured their offensive remained sharp and relentless.

At the heart of their journey lay the Hollow Bloom, a flower embodying darkness and thirst for life, surrounded by whispers of the past and guarded by unholy forces. Lynette, upon retrieving the flower, immediately felt its life-draining curse, a burden that seemed to weigh heavily on her spirit and physical vitality. Takeshi, affected by the flower's presence, cautioned distance, emphasizing the artifact's malevolent nature.

Their return was marked by a profound sense of accomplishment and contemplation of the artifact's grim verses, hinting at a destiny intertwined with sacrifice, betrayal, and retribution. Ritsuka, their leader, recognized the significance of their acquisition and proposed returning the Hollow Bloom to a place of safekeeping until its ominous purpose could be fulfilled or countered.

This story of danger, dark magic, and ancient curses highlighted the bravery, strength, and unity of an unlikely group bound by a common quest. It also foretold a looming, larger conflict, one that threatened to engulf realms in its wake, demanding sacrifices and challenging the very essence of their beings. As they prepared to leave for Haven-city, with promises of recovery and planning for future endeavors, the group pondered the enigmatic prophecy surrounding the Hollow Bloom, aware that their saga was far from over.

After observing his behavior and hearing him mention a presence following him, they invite him outside for a private conversation.

In the alley beside Rosie's Diner, Siofra and Liam step through to another plane of existence, leaving Evan to comfort Roy.
