Last we left off with our friends, the Mercurial Avengers, who had found themselves in a distant future. There, they came into contact with an old Attros who didn’t believe that he had run into them. As they spoke with him, another stranger appeared- a younger black cat Tabaxi named Beatrice, the adopted daughter of Kyver. As they had learned, Weaqha found himself taken by his rage and killed Kyver’s parents before running off and secluding himself in the distant tower.
Kyver, who gave up on his revenge against the Vitalis, found himself becoming an adopted father, only to fight to the death years later against the Son of the Serpent to save Beatrice. The party also came to learn that Rig had vanished into a time unknown after the Constable became trapped in the world that came to be due to the planar collision he caused. Attros, having been injured and crippled, could only send Beatrice to lead the party to the old Vitalis manor, where the Cereius of this future now resided.
As they approached, they were met by hordes of undead servants trapped in a spell circle that was the size of the Vitalis estate. The old bones in Cereius’ bag from the goblin shaman came to life as a skeletal cat in the light of the circle and continued to lead the party further into the manor. Surprisingly, they were led initially by Arnable, who revealed that the Drakewood Knights and Cereius took down Utholok and the Vitalis family in a revolt. As they ventured further in, they were met by the son and father of the Vitalis family, and even Utholok himself, who seemed proud of himself, having seen Cereius become a lich.
With the questions burning in their mind, they could only move forward, Cereius face-to-face with himself, asking what happened, if they failed, only to be responded to by his future self. This happened because “we succeeded.”
