Beginning of Issue
[[Image:LoH_Cards_{{#varpull: LoH/cards/Moxie: Empowered|LoH/Card|image}}|180px|]] Moxie: I am glad to see everything is finally returning to normal around here.

You must be happy to be back, PlayerName

[[Image:LoH_Cards_{{#varpull: LoH/cards/Quick!|LoH/Card|image}}|180px|]] Moxie: I have to admit I was a little envious.

It sounded like quite the adventure.

[[Image:LoH_Cards_{{#varpull: LoH/cards/In and Out|LoH/Card|image}}|180px|]] Moxie: Zeroth is back to his old self.

The heroes and villains are mostly back to their old ways...
Afterimage: Found 'em!.

[[Image:LoH_Cards_{{#varpull: LoH/cards/Keys to the Castle|LoH/Card|image}}|180px|]] Moxie: And AfterImage is coming to the rescue when I lock myself out of The Harmory.

Afterimage: Just hanging on the hook by the door...again.

[[Image:LoH_Cards_{{#varpull: LoH/cards/Foreboding|LoH/Card|image}}|180px|]] Moxie: I am just looking forward to a nice quiet semester.

And putting all that mayhem behind us...

[[Image:LoH_Cards_{{#varpull: LoH/cards/Abduction|LoH/Card|image}}|180px|]] Afterimage: PlayerName! Moxie! Heeeelp!

Everything. Is. Slowing. Down.

[[Image:LoH_Cards_{{#varpull: LoH/cards/Riftwalker|LoH/Card|image}}|180px|]] Moxie: It is another Riftwalker but it isn't Zeroth!

There are more of them?

[[Image:LoH_Cards_{{#varpull: LoH/cards/Riftwalker|LoH/Card|image}}|180px|]] Moxie: Any ideas on how to cut this thing down to size PlayerName?
Beginning of Fight: Chronarchitect
[[Image:LoH_Cards_{{#varpull: LoH/cards/Hands of Time|LoH/Card|image}}|180px|]] Hand of Time: You have been summoned to the tribunal of The Chronarchivist!

You cannot resist the Hands of Time.

[[Image:LoH_Cards_{{#varpull: LoH/cards/Edge of Nowhere|LoH/Card|image}}|180px|]] Hand of Time: Everyone is almost in place. The tribunal can begin.
[[Image:LoH_Cards_{{#varpull: LoH/cards/Hostile Witness|LoH/Card|image}}|180px|]] Chronarbiter: Chronarchivist! You have been charged by your fellow Chronarchs with the high crime of chrono-tampering.

[[Image:LoH_Cards_{{#varpull: LoH/cards/Chronarbiter|LoH/Card|image}}|180px|]] Chronarbiter: PlayerName, you have been brought before me, The Chronarbiter, to defend the existence of your reality.
[[Image:LoH_Cards_{{#varpull: LoH/cards/Hostile Witness|LoH/Card|image}}|180px|]] Chronarbiter: The Chronarchivist has let her affection for Emergent culture ... and fashion ... blind her.

She has been derelict in her solemn duty to preserve the tapestry of time and space.

[[Image:LoH_Cards_{{#varpull: LoH/cards/Time of Judgment|LoH/Card|image}}|180px|]] Chronarbiter: If you are deemed worthy you will be given the opportunity to aid the defense.

Let the record show that I am treating the witness as hostile!

Cold Combat[edit]

Beginning of Area: Cold Combat

[[Image:LoH_Cards_{{#varpull: LoH/cards/Hostile Witness|LoH/Card|image}}|180px|]] Chronarbiter: Myriad other possible paths through time and space your world could have traveled if not for her allowing Zeroth's meddling to change it so profoundly.
[[Image:LoH_Cards_{{#varpull: LoH/cards/Time of Judgment|LoH/Card|image}}|180px|]] Chronarbiter: That she did not know he was a Riftwalker, a nascent Chronarch, makes the case against your timeline even more sound.
[[Image:LoH_Cards_{{#varpull: LoH/cards/Blue Prints|LoH/Card|image}}|180px|]] Chronarbiter: The Chronarchitect is constructing an arena and populating it with heroes and villains from timelines that did not exist at the expense of your own.
[[Image:LoH_Cards_{{#varpull: LoH/cards/Chronarch's Bidding|LoH/Card|image}}|180px|]] Chronarbiter: The last hero standing shall ensure their timeline will carry on where yours now pulses.

It is archival of the fittest!

Beginning of Fight: Cryotechnique
Chronarbiter: In another time, young emergents would have to cope with the bullying of Cryotechnique.

Cryotechnique: Who's the precious little snowflake?

The Man Who Never Was[edit]

Beginning of Fight: ScarabTron
[[Image:LoH_Cards_{{#varpull: LoH/cards/Crossover|LoH/Card|image}}|180px|]] Chronarbiter: In some potentialities humans never developed emergent powers at all.

Beginning of Fight: BreakerTron
[[Image:LoH_Cards_{{#varpull: LoH/cards/Surfacing|LoH/Card|image}}|180px|]] Chronarbiter: Humanity rose above its limitations and externalized their evolution.

[[Image:LoH_Cards_{{#varpull: LoH/cards/Johnny: TinkerTron|LoH/Card|image}}|180px|]] Chronarbiter: Johnny TinkerTron would have been his world's greatest hero. And if you fail to defeat him he will get that chance to exist.

[[Image:LoH_Cards_{{#varpull: LoH/cards/Two Scoops|LoH/Card|image}}|180px|]] Johnny TinkerTron: I don't know about y'all but I am getting tired of being pawns in this game.

Afterimage: If this Tinker is anything like the one we know back home...

[[Image:LoH_Cards_{{#varpull: LoH/cards/Going Up|LoH/Card|image}}|180px|]] Moxie: He is not going to let anyone else dictate his fate.

Afterimage: I hope so Moxie because right now he literally has us in the palm of his hand.

Johnny TinkerTron: As my second ex-wife can attest I always say "fight with the one that brought you."
[[Image:LoH_Cards_{{#varpull: LoH/cards/Flung into Battle|LoH/Card|image}}|180px|]] Moxie: Whaddaya say PlayerName? Are you ready to clean some clocks?
Beginning of Fight: Riftwalkers
[[Image:LoH_Cards_{{#varpull: LoH/cards/Striking the Clock|LoH/Card|image}}|180px|]] Moxie: I don't know how realistic a plan this is but it sure feels good.
[[Image:LoH_Cards_{{#varpull: LoH/cards/Afterimage: Valiant|LoH/Card|image}}|180px|]] Afterimage: I will tell you what is unrealistic! Fighting these Riftwalkers without any help from PlayerName!

Get over here!

[[Image:LoH_Cards_{{#varpull: LoH/cards/Big Bad Susie: Worldbeater (794)|LoH/Card|image}}|180px|]] Big Bad Susie: The way I understand things is this is a trial by combat...

And Big Bad Susie Worldbeater is not in the habit of losing!

The Heavy Mob[edit]

Beginning of Fight: Dimetrodrone Grunt
[[Image:LoH_Cards_{{#varpull: LoH/cards/Trip Wire|LoH/Card|image}}|180px|]] Chronarbiter: In another timeline the genetic experimentations of Dr. Tessera became apex predators.
[[Image:LoH_Cards_{{#varpull: LoH/cards/Timber|LoH/Card|image}}|180px|]] Chronarbiter: Never backing down from a fight no matter how big the foe.

Beginning of Fight: Dimetrodrone Soldier
[[Image:LoH_Cards_{{#varpull: LoH/cards/Foot Soldiers|LoH/Card|image}}|180px|]] Chronarbiter: They were ruthless and savage and would have eventually destroyed themselves.
[[Image:LoH_Cards_{{#varpull: LoH/cards/Otherworldly Enforcers|LoH/Card|image}}|180px|]] Chronarbiter: But one of them fought his way to the top and channeled their savagery to make them into foot soldiers in an elite organized crime family.
Beginning of Fight: The Don
[[Image:LoH_Cards_{{#varpull: LoH/cards/The Don|LoH/Card|image}}|180px|]] The Don: I am The Don.

[[Image:LoH_Cards_{{#varpull: LoH/cards/The Don|LoH/Card|image}}|180px|]] The Don: There was no profit in Emergents where we come from.

And then there were no more Emergents.

[[Image:LoH_Cards_{{#varpull: LoH/cards/The Don|LoH/Card|image}}|180px|]] The Don: Looking at you mutts I am not seeing a lot of profit.

Enemy of Time[edit]

Beginning of Area: Enemy of Time
[[Image:LoH_Cards_{{#varpull: LoH/cards/The Don|LoH/Card|image}}|180px|]] The Don: I have built my career, and my army of foot soldiers, by making cold calculated decisions.

I prefer a bottom line style of management.

[[Image:LoH_Cards_{{#varpull: LoH/cards/The Don|LoH/Card|image}}|180px|]] The Don: But the real bottom line is that I don't like taking orders from anyone.

What I am saying in my own long-winded fashion is...

[[Image:LoH_Cards_{{#varpull: LoH/cards/The Don: Fight|LoH/Card|image}}|180px|]] The Don: The Don fight!
Beginning of Fight: Hands of Time
[[Image:LoH_Cards_{{#varpull: LoH/cards/Fighting Time|LoH/Card|image}}|180px|]] The Don: What are you waiting for? Clobber something!
[[Image:LoH_Cards_{{#varpull: LoH/cards/Cryotechnique|LoH/Card|image}}|180px|]] Cryotechnique: This Don guy is pretty cold-blooded.

Henchman: I like it!

[[Image:LoH_Cards_{{#varpull: LoH/cards/Chronarchitect|LoH/Card|image}}|180px|]] Chronarchitect: There is one constant across all your timelines. Your race is the most willful of any we have ever encountered.
[[Image:LoH_Cards_{{#varpull: LoH/cards/Endless Time|LoH/Card|image}}|180px|]] Chronarchitect: We will need to take a stronger hand with you to break that will.
Beginning of Fight: Riftwalkers
[[Image:LoH_Cards_{{#varpull: LoH/cards/Quick Hands|LoH/Card|image}}|180px|]] Afterimage: Why does it always have to be Riftwalkers? Ummm...PlayerName? A little help here...again?
Beginning of Fight: Antichronarch
[[Image:LoH_Cards_{{#varpull: LoH/cards/Abstraction|LoH/Card|image}}|180px|]] Chronarchivist: I hate to ruin everyone's fun here.

I know I am supposed to just sit here quietly while my fate is being decided.

[[Image:LoH_Cards_{{#varpull: LoH/cards/Abstraction|LoH/Card|image}}|180px|]] Chronarchivist: But if all these Hands of Time have been summoned here...

Who is guarding you know who?

Chronarbiter: The Dark One can't possibly escape?

Can she?

[[Image:LoH_Cards_{{#varpull: LoH/cards/Landfall|LoH/Card|image}}|180px|]] Antichronarch: Not only did those damnable guards who have kept me in stasis for so many millennia abandon their watch...
[[Image:LoH_Cards_{{#varpull: LoH/cards/Antichronarch|LoH/Card|image}}|180px|]] Antichronarch: How deliciously ironic to see one of those members being judged herself.

Dear, perfect Chronarchivist. What could you have possibly done to bring this upon yourself?

[[Image:LoH_Cards_{{#varpull: LoH/cards/Restore Order|LoH/Card|image}}|180px|]] Antichronarch: Now that I am free of your hand's grip you will find I am not so easy to recapture.
[[Image:LoH_Cards_{{#varpull: LoH/cards/Blown Away|LoH/Card|image}}|180px|]] Antichronarch: When I can destroy you with just a touch of my finger.
[[Image:LoH_Cards_{{#varpull: LoH/cards/Recoil|LoH/Card|image}}|180px|]] Afterimage: She just evaporated those Hands of Time with a finger!

Moxie: Chronarchivist! Who is she?

Chronarchivist: She was once one of the Chronarchs but grew weary with our unending existence.

Where she once studied creation and preservation she now only seeks utter destruction and oblivion.

Chronarchivist: She is the AntiChronarch.

And if she makes contact with any of the Chronarchs it will result in the annihilation of everything that ever was. Or could have been.
