So this is the VERY last chapter before the Group enters Dardunah and then I fear I'll have to wait until I can get the World Guide which is being shipped to the U.S. This July and will probably be my Christmas Present this year, I don't feel like I can proceed until I get the complete information because the Creators on the forum they are kind of fickle one says 'Hey you can change something as you see fit' another one discouraging any one playing a Bat character because the Bats are isolaitionists and not all the information about their culture has come out yet.
Upon entering the Battle Neus Realm, Chanchalla was struck by how even if this world seemed a bit closer to Dardunah at least in terms of the arcitecture (The sky was purple, which was merely different to Earth's blue sky but still not the same as Dardunah, at most Dardunah's sky can often be amber in color but really the sky is almost always a perpetual shifting Arora Borealis of colors!) Chanchalla got the feeling through her Mage senses that this place was far stranger than even Dardunah because this place was not 100 percent corporeal really this place had elements of The Dream, like The Dream made into a more tangible form.
Challa couldn't help but squeak a bit when Goyji materilized in front of them, the strange spirit said "Ah Turtles, the Damyo has been expecting you."
The Spirit led them to the Daimyo sitting on his throne.
"Ah." The Daimyo said "At long last, I may meet one of the Janah of Dardunah face to face!"
"You know of us?" Chanchalla squeaked
"It is my duty to know of all worlds that may qualify for my Battle Nexus Tournment," The Daimyo said "We have been watching your world for very long time Young Sheep-Maiden but unfortunatly however dearly we would love to extend an invitation to the denizens of your world, having seen your Kramah Games we know until now none of your people were ready to have the knowladge that there are many other worlds beyond their own, none of them were psychologically ready for the knowladge of intelligent beings that are not themselves, even creatures like Miyamoto Usagi and Gen would be condemed as 'Abombinations' by the Janah simply because their proportions aren't exactly the same as Janah, you see it is their relgion that has caused them to create these rigid beliefs like walls within their minds, they have become so obsessed with purity, actually for many the pursuit of purity is a disguse for their pursuit of worldly power that little things frighten them, their rigid caste system has made them so obsessed with order and certainty that to learn of even a hint of what lay beyond Dardunah would utterly break most of their minds and leave them a raving lunatic!"
And Challa wept remembering how she was terrified of the Turtles upon first meeting them feeling certain they weren't much better "I wasn't much better..." She said
"Now, now." The Daimyo said summoning a handkerchief to dry her eyes "You actually did much better than most upon meeting the Turtles...And it is your disability that ironically gives you the ability to accept the possibilities of things unlike yourself but also...It is your stubborn determination to live that let's you be willing to give such strange creatures a chance if it means survival, for even though you have been told that dying with honor means you will be rewarded with a better new life until eventually after countless reincarnations you will become one with Great Mother and Father...However you are greatly attached to your current life even though you know how strange that is...And I am aware you have been learning about an Earthly Relgion?"
"Yes Sire." Challa said bowing her head
"It is possible your destiny is unique among the Janah." The Daimyo said "You are to be the bridge that opens up Janah to the rest of the Multiverse, the full opening up may not be completed within your lifetime but you will plant the seed! And because of your unique destiny you will be removed from Dardunah's cycle of life and death and instead your soul will be elevated to be with those who accomplished similar heroic feats throughout the multiverse, like Hamto Yoshi."
Chanchalla gasped, he meant her Soul would be taken to an afterlife where there would be humans and other creatures! Would she be the only Janah there? Or have there been other Janah whose feats were Heroic enough to grant them special status , who no longer cared about other creatures now that they were dead.
"Ultimate Daimyo..." Leo said "...Since you have been watching Dardunah for a while, do you have any advice for us? Since we're not the same as Janah, we're...Gonna be pretty vulnerable."
And then the Damyo laughed "Oh! Oh I've actually been arranging for your arrival! I have been sending messages in the Dreams of a Wandering Tribe of Dardunah...To you Chanchalla they are technically outcasts but at this point you no longer care about that having had to live in the sewers for quite some time, and this Tribe has had a history with your Mother, she wasn't a member of the tribe but they were allies, inparticular one member who loved your Mother before she married your Father but I have been informing them of what is to come so they will be tolerant of your strange forms and will shelter you from those who would not be so tolerant."
The Daimyo opened a portal, it was dry and dusty Dardunah plain on a cloudy winter night.
"This is the place where you will meet them." The Daimyo said "Just step through and they will arrive in only a few minutes."
So the crossing of the threshhold begins here, realized while writing this chapter not one turtle had said a word so added Leo's line which nicely segwayed to establishing they would have friends in the form of this wandering tribe
