42. Arc 3 Important Notice

Arc 3 Important Notice

To all readers and followers. I'm sure you all now that with the end of Arc 2 who've all concluded the next Arc will be based off the Splatoon 2 story mode and it will be. Though for all those Splatoon fans the Arc 3 narrative has been greatly altered from the original story of Splatoon 2. I've never played the game but have watched videos on the story mode so locations will not be the same but instead I've blended locations and missions from Fallout 4 to this story. How I see it, making the story from the original game would not be any fun.

Going on to the focus of the narrative. Callie had been squidnapped by Octavio and the rebels back to Octo Canyon. The revelation on Kamabo has surfaced. A mysterious human-based company that had somehow survived the flood and with its motives unknown. This causes Cuttlefish to very leery of this company, being they were the one's that created the pod Blake was in and why are two inklings (Megan and Cleo) working for them. Cuttlefish then decided to go on a mission to find out the answers and take Cassie (Agent 3) along with him. This causes Marie to take command of the squidbeak squad and reinstate Blake to rejoin the squidbeak since Cassie will be absent. Not enough that Blake will have to go to Octo Canyon to rescue Callie and stop DJ Octavio. Izzy will also be reinstated as an agent as well. She will soon be Agent 4 and partner up with Blake as they fight the octo rebels.

In the story, since Blake is a human. He will have to rely on Sheldon Shellendorf to construct gadgets and weapons that will allow him to navigate through Octo Canyon and fight the rebels. Izzy will have to train and gain the courage to battle the octarian menace before she goes to the canyon herself. This story will be full of action, drama, and suspense. Like I said the Arc will be unpredictable and the story will delve deep into the motives of both the octo rebels and the Kamabo company.

As Cuttlefish and Cassie uncover the truth behind the Kamabo company. These events will be nothing more than a prelude to Arc 4 which will be based on Octo Expansion and reveal the origins of the inklings and octarians. Blake will uncover the fate of his family and how the Kamabo company has survived all this time. Also, brand new characters will be revealed in the middle of the Arc that are neither inklings nor octolings. These characters are embroiled in their own war with an unknown force that threatens them and their livelihoods at a location that's across the ocean, miles away from the inkling and octoling territory.

There are many twists and turns in this arc that will lead to the narrative of Arc 4, the Arc that will be a gamechanger of the story and will possibly take a toll on Blake's view of the world he now inhabits and the friends he made. Only time will tell what will happen to Blake and everyone else. Hope you enjoy the story and don't be afraid to leave comments and reviews. I enjoy people reading my story and I hope to improve my writing skills as I go.
