Chapter 3: of relics and stars
Beacon plaza
I had just got off the bullhead after a quick shopping trip in vale for a scroll I was going to set it up, but it already was with the family's contact numbers on it to boot.
Thank you, game.
Anyway, as I was walking down the path to the main entrance I saw many a familiar face from the show mostly the teachers like the portly professor Port or the caffeine fiend docter oobleck, but they were all staring at me like I was some alien.
[that's because you kind of look like one to them john remember?] Starlow said
'Oh of course' I thought back.
"Excuse me but do you know where I can find a professor Ozpin?" I ask Port.
"Uhhhh... Oh! Yes, you can find him in his office." He replied. "although I am quite certain you are not supposed to be here sir."
"Actually, I have an appointment with him, so I should be." I retort.
"Oh. So, you the one Tai sent? Then never mind he did say to look for an odd fellow and I suppose you are quite odd let me take you to his office." He apologized. "Ah this reminds me of when…"
I tune him out and instead take a look at the gorgeous beacon landscape.
The campus was just as beautiful as it was in the show although as we approached I started to have flashbacks of when I first played the thousand-year door and read the intro scrawl for the first time and I didn't know why at least until I got to the front door.
I had stopped taken back by what I was looking at when we got there: a small lone plaza with a pedestal in the center that had a star engraved on it looking as old as time itself and behind it was a grand double door so large I couldn't even find a good comparison for it and emblazoned on the door was not the sigil of beacon but instead a set of seven stars all in an arc around the door's edge with an odd spiral going up the middle of the door.
I had found the thousand-year door.
Quest update!:
Prologue:

But what you do know is that its active because it changed to fit the world of remnant.
Objectives:
Find the door [x]
Hold the map aloft the door [ ]
Rewards:
Unlock star powers
And apparently my staring had not gone unnoticed by my escort.
"Ho so you like our door eh?" He asked. "well I don't know where it came from only that a mysterious benefactor donated it back when the academy first was being constructed along with the podium as well and well it became a mainstay of the academy and its been for around I don't know… perhaps 5 thousand years if Oobleck is correct. It is strange even when we renovated that door and podium have stayed through rain sleet snow or hail."
"Interesting…" I reply. "Hey while I'm in my meeting with Oz would you please tell Tai to come here and bring the girls as well also make sure to mention to wait by this door specifically it's kind of important."
"Of course, my dear friend id be delighted to after all it has been a while since I have seen him and his kids it would bee nice to get caught up." He answers politely.
And with that we head on in until we reach the elevator to Ozpin's office.
"Here we are I hope you meeting goes well." He says.
"Thank you till we meet again friend." I say back to him.
I the hit the button to go to the old wizard's office and ascend hoping that Glynda or anyone else was not in his office right now as it would make this a whole lot more difficult.
Luckily it was just me and him when the doors opened he was facing the window that looked over the courtyard.
As I stepped into his office I truly took it in with an awe that I didn't have when I first saw it in the show I mean sure it was made out of the insides of a clocktower but still I now wondered how they maintained it all and I mean it seriously I did not see any other buttons on the elevator other than up and down which implied there were only 2 floors on this tower it just boggled me.
"Ah so I see my guest has arrived yet is it not rude to stare?" He asked still not facing me.
"Well not when you wonder how you make sure these cogs don't break then no." I reply. "The name's John by the way…"
"Ozma."
That drew his attention, and his Ire as he then got up and pinned me to the wall with his... cane-sword thing.

[Wow triggered much?] Starlow chirped.
'Well when you mention the one thing that only he and his mortal enemy/ girlfriend know he tends to be put on edge.' I mention.
"Who. are. You?" he asks with both an icy voice and stare.
"I am a person from beyond the folds of space and time Ozma." I reply cryptically. "I am not you enemy if you trust this fact or not I do not care but rest assured that I am not her ally but also not that I am not yours either as I wish no part of your conflict."
"Alright I will believe you… for now." He states while releasing me.
I release a breath I did not realize that I was holding.
"With that out of the way I wanted to talk to you about something." I say.
"And that is?" He asks.
"We both know you have heard of a fairy-tale or two, so I want to know if you have heard of the story of the Thousand-year door." I tell him.
"I can't say I have." He replies.
"Well then I will explain why I am here. To be blunt I have a feeling something worse than Salem possibly awaits." I begin to explain.
"What do you mean?" He asks clearly confused now.
"I will explain in full but for now let us go to the entrance of beacon, Oh and make sure no one but us are there." I tell him. "Although I do have a few friends that will meet us there. You should know them, and no its not any of Salem's followers, rather its Tai and his family. They need to know about this too as they are essentially my family now."
"Alright let's head that way now I just notified Glynda to clear out the main plaza." He says.
A Few minutes later in front of the door.
Tai and the girls finally arrived much to the chagrin of the Goodwitch.
"Ok john why did you ask me to bring the girls?" he asks.
I look to Ozpin and then back to Tai and then to the door.
"Turns out the reason I was going to leave tow for a while was Right here all along, built into the walls of beacon academy." I explain vaguely.
"What do you mean?" Ruby asks.
"Ozpin." I say looking at him. "you said you never heard of the legend of the Thousand-year door yet here it stands as the front door to beacon."
"With Tai and the girls here, I can now begin."
"So, let me." I say.
"And me." Starlow adds popping out from my bag.
"Tell you the story of the Thousand-year door." I say.
"The original legend." She picks up where I left off as we begin to alternate. (A/N: just to know from here on out till the next a/n it will go as follows: John then Starlow and then it repeats I would do it another way but I have never don alternating text before.)
"The truth behind it."
"What happened after."
"What it could mean now."
"And what must be done."
(Play The Story of the Thousand-year door, Paper Mario TTYD OST.)
"An awfully long time ago…"
"In a strange and far-off land, a big, bustling town thrived."
"It was a town where all people lived very happy lives."
"And it was said that the town was very prosperous."
"But one day… tragedy befell this blessed place."
"A great cataclysm struck the town and its people."
"Darkness filled the skies, and the earth roared and shook."
"It was as if the very world had come to a violent end."
"And in but a single night…"
"The town sank into the depths of the earth…"
"Many moons rose and set…"
"stories of the town passed into the pages of Fairy tales…"
"And when the town's site no longer held relics of its past…"
"People gathered at that spot and built a new town."
"But word soon spread among the people who moved in…"
"That an ancient city lay deep underground…"
"And that a magnificent treasure rested there."
"Indeed…"
"The tale of the Thousand-year door started in the quaint town that it rested under…"
"Rougeport."
(BMG End)
"The legend stated that only the one who obtained the seven crystal stars could open the door and claim the treasure."
"Yet this legend of treasure was naught but a lie."
"Instead a great evil was sealed behind the door."
"That same evil created the crystal stars that sealed it away."
"Originally they were to be used to spread its influence."
"But instead four heroes turned the power of the crystal stars against it."
(A/N its over now ill be surprised if any of you guys kept track.)
"What is the name of this evil you might ask." I say looking at Ozpin. "Well its quite simple… She was simply known as the shadow queen." I pause letting it sink in.
"… What?" Tai says dumbfounded.
I sigh and look back to Ozpin.
I can best summarize his reaction as thus: he had the thousand-yard stare along with a small look of hope in that stare
"And no oz its not your ex-girlfriend as much as I wish it was." I say begrudgingly.
"Any how let us continue." I try to regain his focus. "that was then, and rumor is that she was finally slain some time ago by the same man that helped my home in its time of crisis but the fact that its here now worries me. After all a door that is not only a relic, but a magical artifact as well does not seem very... how do I put it? Safe yes that's one way to put it. Especially when you found the map to find its key still around and active."
That get everyone's attention.
"Yes, I have the map for it that is why I asked for this meeting… well not about THIS but when your about to try and hunt it down and leave for a few months you need to get all your ducks in a row first. which reminds me oz. Please keep me out of your little… disagreement with the other headmasters I need to solely focus on this if we hope to make sure this door stays sealed in the way of magic. So if you will excuse me."
I step up onto the pedestal and immediately a set of runes surround it on the floor I proceed to hold the map to the door and instead of it just floating out of my hands I float with it too.
As I rise the world starts to spin around me and when I stop rising the map folds open and releases a blinding white light so bright in fact that I knew I just knew that it engulfed the entirety of vale along with a bit of forever fall and the emerald forest.
Yet in the light I see the map in front of me.
It was mostly the same but now it had a structure on it: a lone tower and it seemed to be in forever fall itself yet that was no where the star was.
No it was deep under it in a cave of sorts if the map was right and with that I passed out.
