- Panel 1
Lee: At the beginning of the year, Sabine reported to us a certain surprising set of facts regarding the world of mortals.
Sabine: You remember, babe. Before we got captured in Azure City?
Nero: We have been attempting to corroborate the specifics through various means ever since.
Cedrik: This is what we have been able to reconstruct so far.
- Panel 2
Lee (off-panel): The world upon which you were born was not the first such planet created by the gods.
Nero (off-panel): It was, in fact, the second. The first was destroyed by a creature known as the Snarl.
Cedrik (off-panel): The gods trapped the Snarl within a pocket dimension, then built your world around it.
- Panel 3
Nale: And the Gates hold the Snarl inside. Control the Gates, control the Snarl.
Nale: I know recap exposition when I hear it, so tell me something I don't already know.
- Panel 4
Lee: You may know this, but we did not. We were shocked to learn the truth.
Nero: We are immortal fiends. Our memories stretch back thousands of years.
Cedrik: Surely, we should remember such a momentous event occurring. Shouldn't we?
- Panel 5
Lee (off-panel): But that is where the story takes a disturbing turn.
Nero (off-panel): We have uncovered evidence we were alive at that time-
Cedrik (off-panel): -and the gods personally intervened to erase the memories of all outsiders!
- Panel 6
Lee: Even the Evil gods participated in this gross violation!
Nero: They chose to collude with their Good and Neutral counterparts rather than stand with us, their comrades-in-villainy!
Cedrik: If we are to stand for cooperation between the forces of darkness, this betrayal must be punished.
Cedrik: Harshly.
- Panel 7
Nale: Yeah, that sounds rough for you guys, but I don't know what you expect me to do.
Nale: Unless you're going [sic] ask me to fight gods, in which case I think even my ego isn't up to the task.
Lee: Oh no, nothing like that.
Nero: We have a simple To-Do list for you.
Cedrik: Just three little tasks:
- Panel 8
Lee: Break the last Gate.
Nero: Release the Snarl.
Cedrik: Erase the world and every last soul living on it.
- Panel 9
Lee: I guess those last two are actually consequences.
Nero: So only one task.
Cedrik: Efficiency win!
