Hello everyone. Are you having a good day today?

I've decided to include a second chapter to this in order to lay the groundwork for Karen's future role in this saga. An idea which came to me for her journey when ideas were flowing through my mind for this epic series.

As for her role, I suppose it will be similar to that of a champion except she won't be one of the official champions. As in the champions I've introduced so far or will introduce. Rather but her role will be unique to this saga compared to the primary champions. A role that might be needed when the future multiversal conflict transpires.

And now on with the show.

Disclaimer: I don't own "Black Panther" or anything else you might recognize here.

Setting: Wakanda

Location:

Months had passed since Karen had been exiled to Wakanda. And quite unceremoniously. And during this period her reeducation had been rigorous as she'd been thoroughly educated on what black skinned individuals had actually fought for in their history.

That it wasn't superiority or privilege but equality with their fellow humans. That it was dignity and respect they'd campaigned towards. That it wasn't just them but other ethnicities who'd fought to claim those basic rights.

She was also educated in the fact that certain ethnicities had written novels and created other forms of entertainment in which the primary characters were of another ethnicity. Some Caucasian individuals having written stories of heroic black figures while blacks had written stories starring Caucasian heroes. And authors of different ethnicities, nations, genders, ages, and religions had all written engaging and compelling stories about each other. Factual and fictional combined.

Learning all of this would cause Karen to experience deep shame and remorse for her previous actions with her Toc Tic video. That she should've conducted her own due diligence before opening her big mouth. Her own inner musings in regards to her big mouth though no one could argue against that.

She also received further and thorough instruction and guidance on humility. Her educators gently encouraging her to embrace a humble attitude towards life and living it. Providing her with examples of modest behavior from others and using it to extol her towards that model of living.

Karen in response would exercise this guidance by striving to become a humble individual and with the patient direction from her instructors achieved significant leaps and bounds in that direction. Her eyes having been opened. And the progress she displayed in all of the aforementioned areas was tremendous.

Queen Ramonda and Princess Shuri meanwhile continued to personally oversee her reeducation and rejoiced over the fruits it produced. Pleased that their guest had not only repented but was putting in the necessary work towards it.

One evening later and following all of this, Karen was in her designated quarters at the reeducation center and had just finished consuming the evening meal. One which was delicious as always along with the other Wakandan cuisines she'd consumed during her stay. Afterwards she'd chosen a book to read which contained a list of wise fables to not only be entertained by but to especially learn from.

Its closest comparison could be to "Aesop's Fables" but Wakandan style.

As she reclined on her chair and read the book, she sensed a presence within the room and lifting her head and turning it to the side saw it was T'Challa. Dressed in his Black Panther uniform like he'd been when they'd met originally. Though with his mask detracted this time.

In response she immediately removed herself from her chair and prostrated herself onto the ground before him.

"Your majesty," she addressed him respectfully. Still prostrate.

The late monarch responded by gesturing her to rise which she did.

"Greetings Miss Ekow. I've been observing your journey and I'm delighted to say that I am greatly pleased by the progress you've displayed," he said to her with a warm smile.

Karen bowed her head in acknowledgment.

"Thank you for your kind words your majesty and I'm striving to be the best person I can be. And it's thanks to you, Miss Xena, and Miss Gabriella for not tolerating my previous entitled behavior but conducting the necessary steps towards enabling me to see reason," she replied and softly acknowledged. "Recollecting towards my previous actions but I feel deep remorse and cannot believe I behaved in that manner. And I'm truly sorry to you, your people, and my fellow humans and beg your forgiveness," she continued while lowering her head in shame and remorse.

T'Challa listened to her and after she finished and seeing her despondent expression moved closer towards her and placing his hand upon her chin lifted her face upwards. Their eyes meeting.

"It's true that the 3 of us started your journey but it's you who allowed yourself to repent. You who opened yourself up to reason. It was your choice and to conduct the required steps towards it. All we did was provide you with the necessary push towards that. The rest was yours and you are an improved individual towards it," he softly stated and affirmed to her. "Furthermore but you must not allow yourself to drown in guilt. What you did was wrong but you've learned from it and are a different person. Instead use the past as a cautioning tale so you won't repeat the same mistake. And as long as you continue to remain open towards practicing virtuous and upright behavior you'll achieve truly amazing things within your future."

The former monarch's words caused Karen's eyes to glisten with tears.

"Thank you for the vote of confidence your majesty. And your faith in me means a great deal and especially considering how I'd previously behaved," she emotionally responded and with a smile of gratitude. Warmed by his words. "And I promise I will continue working to remain on the straight and narrow," she added further and meant it.

"Think nothing of it. And I know you will," he assured her and then affirmed. "For the record and while I'm genuinely pleased with your newfound maturity I'm also here for another reason," he then added.

Karen's eyebrows raised in keen interest. Not having expected that.

"Oh, um, I see then. And if you don't mind my asking but what exactly is your other reason?" she politely questioned him while her brain entertained different possibilities.

"To answer your question, I'm here to extend an offer to you. An offer consisting of an opportunity to utilize your words in a positive manner this time around," he answered and explained to her. "A manner in which they would serve to impart wisdom wherever needed, guide someone towards a positive direction, and stir up others. Inspiring them towards whatever direction is required.

"The third one is of the most significant importance. For if you accept you will be designated as the oracle of the multiverse. A special champion whose ultimate purpose shall be to rally the other designated champions from across universes when the time arises. For a powerful enemy myself and my colleagues had previously neutralized is laying the groundwork for his terrible revenge. One which will result in the entire multiverse being under siege. Something we have foreseen.

"Therefore we've been conducting our own maneuvers against him in terms of preparation. One of which involves sending a group of our champions across the multiverse to course correct the enormous damage he's wrought. And the other being to utilize them and the remaining champions as the chief defense force of the multiverse when said enemy declares war upon it. And if you accept you must be ready to serve as the voice to call the troops to action. So to speak."

Karen found herself overwhelmed. Her? A voice for the multiverse? Never in her wildest dreams expecting to be presented an opportunity quite like this.

"Um, wow. I mean geez. I don't even know what to say. This is an astounding offer not to mention a huge honor. But are you certain I'm the one you desire for those role? Considering the previous time I used my words but for all the wrong reasons?" she responded after recovering her voice. Self doubt and hesitance clearly emanating from her words. Along with guilt.

T'Challa smiled gently.

"Yes woman I'm most certain. For everyone deserves an opportunity to redeem themselves. Including you," he reassured her. "And now that you've humbled yourself and repented you deserve the chance to utilize your vocal skills positively instead of negatively. If you'd like, you can consider it community service.

"This offer is not mandatory and the choice is up to you. But if you'll accept you'll be able to accomplish great things. Therefore but what say you?"

Karen listened to everything the late monarch had shared before contemplating upon his words.

This was truly a great honor and one she knew in her heart that she could not permit to go to waist. Plus she admitted the idea of community service was actually appealing to her.

"It would be my honor to accept your offer your majesty. And I will do my utmost to accomplish it whenever I'm called," he readily answered with a bright smile. Ready and eager.

"Excellent. And you'll be called upon during events which your words are needed," the Wakandan monarch responded and returned her smile. "Now you go and get yourself some rest alright?"

"Of course your majesty. And goodnight," she agreed and then bowed to him one final time. He in turn nodded his head towards her before vanishing. After which Karen got underneath the covers of her bed and wrapping them around herself fell asleep. Looking forward to the future.

The End

A/N And that will be Karen's official role for this saga. A multiversal champion. What do you guys think?

Thanks for reading and have a great day.
