My second clone dismissed itself the second the portal to Oblivion closed, I took some time going over the new memories and considering the information. I sighed to myself as I considered whether we should continue without them or call this jump over. 'No, at the very least we need to finish this.'

Gathering everyone together was easy, we hadn't left Nomanisan Island yet. I gathered everything we would need together and set it in front of me. "The original plan here was to stay and help the empire gain strength before leaving. Then again the original plan didn't include anyone dying."

Running my hand through my hair I sigh again and look around at everyone. "Where do we go from here? Do we continue without them and finish or do we leave and go somewhere else?" I sit down and wait for everyone to consider and give opinions.

Nicolas stood up and gave his opinion. "We finished our sanctuaries with a large animal population and also gave back more than we took. We've ended the threat of Lie Rock and trapped Almalexia. We freed the slaves and taken our pound of flesh from those responsible… what's left?"

Scratching my chin I considered before answering. "Bringing the Septims back to the Imperial City, relighting the Dragon Fires and empowering them further with our ritual."

Nicolas sat down with a smile, and Filius stood up and floated above the table. "You seeded all the people we rescued with the protective powers we all have, but nothing we had planned is important enough to stick around for. I saw we finish up and call it done."

When nobody else had an opinion I stood once more. "Ok, that sounds good enough for me. After feeding them the antidote to the Draught of Living Death I'll return them to top condition and we'll bring them to the Imperial City."

After feeding the Emperor the antidote my hands began flowing green with medical chakra as a ran a diagnosis over the man. As he slowly came out of the magically induced coma I fixed all of the medical problems that seem to accumulate as we age. "Welcome back to the land of the living your Imperial Majesty"

The Emperor suddenly went completely still as I handed him a glass of water and I helped him sit up. "Stay calm, your Imperial Majesty. I knew of the plot to kill you and your family and I and my group were able to save you and all your sons."

His hands were shaking so I helped him drink some water. "Thank you young man, how long have I been in your care?" I handed him a potion that was a golden colour and glowing softly.

"I brought you here eight days ago and you've been kept unconscious until today. My group and I fought day and night for a week before Mehrunes Dagon made a vital mistake, once we heal you and your sons we plan on bringing you all to the Imperial City. The Dragon Fires need to be relit and the throne reclaimed."

The Emperor looked at the potion with curiosity, inspecting it carefully before drinking it. "I've never had a potion like that, what was it?" I smile as I see tension and age melt off the man.

"That your Imperial Majesty was a potion created by one of the people in my group, Nicolas Flamel. I'm afraid I can't go into much detail, but it requires some ingredients only available to us. There is no better healing potion, it will mend your body, mind and spirit."

"No need to be formal, you can call me Uriel. Especially since I haven't felt this healthy since before I was held captive in Oblivion." Uriel had a faraway look in his eyes as he thought about his days of being captive and tortured. Phoenix appeared in a flash of fire and started singing, circling once before landing on my shoulder.

Uriel's was jolted back into the present as we both of us were uplifted by the phoenix song. "What of my sons? Where are they now?"

"At this very moment they are also being tended to, my goal here was to limit the damage done by the invaders and save your family. You and your family are needed Uriel, you are a good man and a great Emperor."

Once I finished healing Uriel a large breakfast appeared on a tray, it included one of the Phoenix Apples. "When you are finished eating I want to bring you and your sons back to the Imperial Palace. It's time to end this foolish invasion and give people the hope they need."

Uriel opened his mouth to say something, stopped and then started eating instead. "I will see you soon Your Imperial Majesty."

Instead of walking out the door I opened a portal to the warehouse and stepped through, gathering everything I would need for the ritual and took a second portal to my estate in Cyrodiil. As I wandered around the property in thought I pet Phoenix and fed him some dried fruit. I could feel his amusement and happiness through our bond.

"Alright, I promise I won't leave you on the Island anymore." Phoenix sang for a moment, questioning. "Yes, we're leaving soon and then off on another grand adventure."

After about an hour Phoenix brought us back to Nomanisan Island and we went back to see the Emperor. Uriel and his three sons were outside talking to the group when we arrived. "There you are Alexander, your friends have been telling me all that you have done. You should be proud of everything you've achieved, all of Tamriel will know of your accomplishments"

I carefully bowed, making sure not to displace Phoenix. "It was both my duty and my pleasure, Your Imperial Majesty. Are you ready to reclaim your rightful position?" Handing him the Amulet of Kings he stared at it in thought before putting it on. He took another moment to think before letting me know they were ready.

"Everyone needs to join hands so that Phoenix can bring us to the Imperial City, we beat the invaders now it's time to close the gate." Once everyone was ready Phoenix took us away in a flash. When we arrived in the Imperial City there were many shouts of surprise at seeing the Emperor not only alive but in much better condition than before.

Relighting the Dragon Fire that protected Nirn took no time at all, I immediately began preparing for the ritual we had created to feed the flames. During the time before the invasion I had collected all of the Daedric items and I threw them into the fire.

I then took out the three sacrificial dolls and put them on the ground around the giant bowl that held the Dragon Fire. "These three sacrifices represent that which we seek to protect innocence, freedom and love. I sacrifice them so that others may keep theirs."

The Dragon Flames instantly grew in size and intensity, manifesting themselves into the shape of Akatosh. The avatar of the Dragon of Time looked at me before speaking. "Travelers, you have done much good here and by allowing the invasion to continue have prevented a greater tragedy. You have my blessing for your future in the past, know that like Talos you can one day ascend into the divine."

The avatar disappeared, yet the flames stayed brighter and larger than they had been before. Before we could take our leave the Emperor insisted on throwing a feast in our honour. A feast that quickly turned into a celebration that lasted longer than the invasion.

The damage to Tamriel was small, very few portals were missed by us. During the celebration we made duplicates to finish our work here. Recalling Hashirama's armour to the Island and making sure Red Mountain was safe and protected.

Once the celebration was over we met one last time with the Emperor and told him we would be traveling, but that we would be back. The Emperor named us the God Killers before his court, in front hundreds of witnesses I made the choice to continue.

***THE WAREHOUSE***

The very second I realized I was in the warehouse I went looking for Hashirama and Mito, I ran to the housing and began yelling for them. The second I opened the door to their shared room I shut it with a smirk on my face. 'Fair enough'

I made my way to the common room and by the time I got there almost everyone was gathered together. As I sat down between Fleur and Luna Phoenix sat on my shoulder and gently nipped my ear.

I felt myself relaxing as all my tension washed away, seeing… Well, hearing Hashirama and Mito made me feel a lot better. I knew that they would be fine, but seeing is believing. "Hashirama and Mito will be busy for a while, and there's no rush to talk about our next jump."

Bob and Min were back in their house elf forms, and they seemed more comfortable, I walked over to them as I quietly addressed them. "Fleur, Luna and I are taking this next Jump for ourselves. Only the two of you Alastair and our AI will be invited along."

Grabbing the remote I put a silly movie on the television and we all started to unwind, Min served some snacks and we just enjoyed a few movies together. After the first movie was finished I created a clone to look over the next jump and continued watching movies.

The clone went over to the largest touch screen and began making looking over choices, without thinking I spun the Wheel of Misfortune and gained an extra five hundred points. My original idea was to be a dragon this Jump, which is why I had made so many gold coins with the cash tree.

The more I thought about it though the less appealing it became, sure being the equivalent of an elder dragon the size of a large mountain range would be different. I wasn't sure if their inherent instincts and greed were worth it, the uncorrupted Mairar were closer to what I wanted to be in any case.

After confirming all of my choices I made an attempt to mentally contact Jumper-Chan. Almost immediately I felt a pull that I embraced, I was instantly transported back to her office.

***JUMPER-CHAN OFFICE***

I greeted Jumper-Chan with a wave that she returned before getting down to business. "Before we go to the next Jump I wanted to ask you if staying out of everything that happens here will be a problem."

Jumper-Chan raises an eyebrow before commenting. "How about you tell me why you want to avoid the world at large if you're traveling there?"

"The biggest reason I want to go there is because of the length of time we will be there, I want to use that time to train my skill and build a few things. I'm a little sick of feeling like we're the least powerful and experienced in the group."

Jumper-Chan nods her head in understanding so I continue. "Not only that but also how many people we end up finding within Jumps that can overpower the three of us. I feel as though the best way to counter that is for us to take this Jump alone. I do plan on sending shadow clones out into the world to travel though."

"So you won't be completely cutting yourself off from the world then?" I shake my head and open my mouth to say something but Jumper-Chan continued. "Why not send a duplicate out to travel?"

"With the drawbacks I have I want to reduce the chance that anyone will find us, sending shadow clones will lower the chances." I pause for a second before asking a question. "Since my Hidden Kingdom can be placed anywhere and Nomanisan Island will be a part of Middle Earth can I replace the volcano with the mountain range my grand vale is in?"

I could tell by the look Jumper-Chan has on her face I had caught her off guard, then she giggled so much she started snorting. After regaining control of herself she grinned. "I told you before you're full of surprises, nice to see you continue that." Jumper-Chan made a few changes on the touch screen on her desk.

"Usually you would have to go to a specific Jump to gain this ability but as a reward I'm allowing you this. From now on you'll be able to customize your properties between Jumps from your screen in the warehouse."

I stand and bow in respect to Jumper-Chan. "Thank you Jumper-Chan, I think I'll move the Phoenix Tree Grove to the centre of the Hidden Kingdom, once we start the Jump I'll plant Telperion and Laurelin in the middle."

"One thing before I send you back, this will allow you to temporarily add properties to your Island. I wasn't going to do this, but consider it a gift from me."

I bowed one more time in respect, and when I stood I found myself back in the warehouse. I made modifications to Nomanisan Island as planned as well as adding my mansion and workshop to the Hidden Kingdom.

Since I was still planning on filling the kingdom with Hobbits the mansion would be underground, I set it at the edge of the plateau and added a hidden exit to my workshop. One of my plans was to push my magical tech level as far as I could, and far more important was crafting the perfect beer.

I made sure to remove my other properties making sure none of them would spawn. I then bit the bullet and told the group what I had decided for the next Jump, nobody seemed upset or cared to ask for an explanation. Fleur and Luna made their choices, Bob and Min didn't take anything but came along with us.

Before long our week of relaxation was over Fleur, Luna and I woke up in the centre of the Phoenix Tree Grove. In the centre of the Grove was a large empty spot, that I instinctively knew was where the trees should go. After planting the seedlings I sat and started gathering natural energy, I could already feel the power in the pure trees shining throughout the Grove.

Before leaving the Grove I split into duplicates, four of me apparated away while I changed my form into a hobbit. Fleur, Luna and I left the Grove and started exploring our new kingdom, I was surprised by what I found.

When I chose Hobbits as the race to live in my kingdom I did it because they were always my favourite race in Middle-Earth. What I didn't expect was that I would end up with Harfoots, Stoors, and Fallohides. They were all there, mingling with each other and going about their day.

I started handing out magic and protective powers to everyone as we walked through the village. The first week was spent mingling and talking to my new subjects while I handed out powers like candy. Hobbits had a natural defence against corruption so strong the One Ring had trouble overcoming it. It eventually overcame those natural defences, but it was impressive how long that took.

Three of my duplicates worked on projects and training, the fourth played with our new shape-change ability and gave a seed of that to Bob and Min. We had a great start to this Jum, a nice relaxing start to what would be by far the longest time spent anywhere. On our seventh day there I could feel a sort of knock against the wards of Nomanisan Island.

I instinctively knew the power behind the knock could have been used to tear down the wards instead. So I quickly allowed the visitor to safely enter, moments later someone appeared in the Phoenix Tree Grove. Something I never thought I would see a young Gandalf, or Olórin as he is known.

Despite the fact he was friendly I felt nervous, standing before me was a being that existed here before time. Even still I smiled and held out my hand in greeting. "I bid you a warm welcome Olórin."

NOTES

This will mainly be world building and us exploring and developing our abilities. It will start off slow and then many, many time skips. I'm not sure exactly how much time I booked here but I'm sure it's over ten thousand year.

Oh, and we're avoiding doing too much within the world because I can't see the Valar react well to anyone powerful messing around in Middle-Earth. They sent the wizards as counsel after all. Let me know what you think.
