Steeds of the Ebon Sun

Beginning of Area: Steeds of the Ebon Sun
	Young Zeroth: Ahem!
	Young Zeroth: Don't you know it is rude to not offer something to your guests. And you could have tidied up.
	Young Zeroth: That's right. I am in your head! I am certain I can do some permanent damage before you pull the trigger on the explosives in the Eye-Bots.
	Young Zeroth: If we go. You go with us. Trust me on that. But you release your hold on the Eye-Bots and I go out the way I came and leave everything the way I found it.

[[Image:LoH_Cards_{{#varpull: LoH/cards/Stare Down|LoH/Card|image}}|180px|]]	Daddy 2.0: I doubt you will look as brave when that day comes. And it is coming soon. But for now...
	Daddy 2.0: I will concede this battle.
	Daddy 2.0: And prepare to end this war against a worthy adversary on another day.
	Young Zeroth: Whew!

Beginning of Fight: Helios
[[Image:LoH_Cards_{{#varpull: LoH/cards/Leeched Lotus|LoH/Card|image}}|180px|]]	Several days later...
[[Image:LoH_Cards_{{#varpull: LoH/cards/Red Thumb|LoH/Card|image}}|180px|]]	Professor Helios: I have not been sleeping well. I am plagued by dark dreams. I can't even find peace in my garden.
	Professor Helios: Zeroth is putting weight behind Daddy2.0's threats and I am inclined to agree with him. I need you to fight me. To push me. To make sure I am ready when the time comes.

Beginning of Fight: Young Zeroth
	Young Zeroth: Not bad considering you were fighting against an old man... No offense!
[[Image:LoH_Cards_{{#varpull: LoH/cards/Fire in the Sky|LoH/Card|image}}|180px|]]	Young Zeroth: I have been getting stronger and more comfortable with my powers. Think you can take me?

Beginning of Fight: Sun Steeds
	Young Zeroth: Heads up! Professor Helios: It can't be possible!
	Professor Helios: Phaeton's Sun Steeds are attacking us but they died along with my son!
[[Image:LoH_Cards_{{#varpull: LoH/cards/Palms Out|LoH/Card|image}}|180px|]]	Professor Helios: Possible or not we have to stop them before they trample the school.
[[Image:LoH_Cards_{{#varpull: LoH/cards/Horse Play|LoH/Card|image}}|180px|]]	Young Zeroth: I have these two! Can you handle the rest?

The Voiceless and the Void

Beginning of Area: The Voiceless and the Void
	Moxie: Are those Sun Steeds? That's impossible! Isn't it?
	Professor Helios: This must be the threat that Daddy2.0 was hinting at. We need to get to the scene of your last battle with him and investigate.
[[Image:LoH_Cards_{{#varpull: LoH/cards/Keep Your Hands and Feet In...|LoH/Card|image}}|180px|]]	Billy Stopless: I know a shortcut but if Phaeton is on the other side I might prefer the scenic route.

Beginning of Fight: The Abyss
	Professor Helios: Scatter! It's ixNay!
	Professor Helios: Don't get between them. They have an old score to settle and anyone trying to fight ixNay is going to have to fight The Abyss first.

Beginning of Fight: IxNay

Beginning of Fight: The Hat
	The Hat: ixNay will foretell the presence of The Hat but I am afraid he is not very good at conveying my intentions.
[[Image:LoH_Cards_{{#varpull: LoH/cards/Blindsided|LoH/Card|image}}|180px|]]	Billy Stopless: I am sure your high-priced attorney will tell us all about it when we deliver you to the proper authorities.

Beginning of Fight: Eyebots
[[Image:LoH_Cards_{{#varpull: LoH/cards/Dot the Eyes|LoH/Card|image}}|180px|]]	The Hat: I was hoping you would give me a chance to plead my case.
	The Hat: But I have to resort to tactics I had hoped to avoid. Moxie: Eye-bots!!

Codename: Beatdown

Beginning of Area: Codename: Beatdown
[[Image:LoH_Cards_{{#varpull: LoH/cards/The Hat: Found|LoH/Card|image}}|180px|]]	The Hat: I am looking to make a deal. You want to know about Daddy2.0 and Phaeton and I want protection.
[[Image:LoH_Cards_{{#varpull: LoH/cards/Inconvenient Interruption|LoH/Card|image}}|180px|]]	Young Zeroth: Protection? Protection from what? Chronarchivist: Protection from us!
	Chronarchivist: I am the Chronarchivist, one of the Three Chronarchs charged with maintaining the integrity of time and space. It is only by my leave that this Emergent-laden timeline is allowed to persist.
	Chronarchivist: I believe you are familiar with my agents... The Meanwhile Squadron
	Chronarchivist: The villain you know as The Hat is actually a Quiskian alien who has escaped through time and is endangering this already fragile timeline. We are here to take him home.
[[Image:LoH_Cards_{{#varpull: LoH/cards/Plea Bargain|LoH/Card|image}}|180px|]]	The Hat: If you want to know about your son then you have to protect me from her.
[[Image:LoH_Cards_{{#varpull: LoH/cards/Line in the Sand|LoH/Card|image}}|180px|]]	Professor Helios: I cannot let you take this man. There are things we need to know. I am drawing a line in the sand. Cross it and we will fight you.

Beginning of Fight: Codename: Sidekick
[[Image:LoH_Cards_{{#varpull: LoH/cards/Codename Sidekick: Meanwhile|LoH/Card|image}}|180px|]]	Codename: Sidekick: It's bad enough we had to do the Genesis Squadron's job for them when Helios didn't want to anymore. But now he is trying to keep us from completing the mission?

Beginning of Fight: Codename: Soldier
[[Image:LoH_Cards_{{#varpull: LoH/cards/Codename Soldier: Meanwhile|LoH/Card|image}}|180px|]]	Codename: Soldier: Codename Soldier is going to complete this mission. Even if I have to go through you to do so.

Beginning of Fight: Henchmob
	Genesis Squadron Member: We are completely besieged on all sides. Now the Henchmob, which means Daddy2.0 can't be far behind.

Meanwhile, in Your Face...

Beginning of Fight: Iso-Man
[[Image:LoH_Cards_{{#varpull: LoH/cards/Road Kill|LoH/Card|image}}|180px|]]	Iso-Man: Since we joined up with the Chronarchivist we have fought some strange battles in very strange lands. It feels good to heft some Detroit steel again.
[[Image:LoH_Cards_{{#varpull: LoH/cards/Road Kill|LoH/Card|image}}|180px|]]	Iso-Man: Although I am loathe to fight you and my old friends. But the gravity of our mission means that I must.

Beginning of Fight: Scarlet Tiger
[[Image:LoH_Cards_{{#varpull: LoH/cards/Scarlet Tiger: Meanwhile|LoH/Card|image}}|180px|]]	Scarlet Tiger: I have been told that one day I will teach you everything you know about fighting. I don't need to see the future to know I will not teach you everything The Scarlet Tiger knows.

Beginning of Fight: Johnny Tinker
[[Image:LoH_Cards_{{#varpull: LoH/cards/Johnny Tinker: Meanwhile|LoH/Card|image}}|180px|]]	Johnny Tinker: If Johnny Tinker can get the upper hand on The Abyss so easily what makes you think you can stand up to me?

Time After Time

Beginning of Fight: Chronarchivist
[[Image:LoH_Cards_{{#varpull: LoH/cards/Turn Back the Clock|LoH/Card|image}}|180px|]]	Chronarchivist: Stop! I have placed us in a time bubble in the hopes that I can make you listen to reason. If you insist on fighting me I will have to bring forth battles from your own past to combat you.

Beginning of Fight: Crimson Mark
[[Image:LoH_Cards_{{#varpull: LoH/cards/The Crimson Mark|LoH/Card|image}}|180px|]]	The Crimson Mark: Where the heck am I? Oh wait, I know. In the middle of a fight. Awesome!!

Beginning of Fight: Dimetrodon
[[Image:LoH_Cards_{{#varpull: LoH/cards/Dimetrodon|LoH/Card|image}}|180px|]]	Dimetrodon: DIMETRODON FIGHT!

Of a Demon That is Dreaming

Beginning of Fight: Devastatrix
[[Image:LoH_Cards_{{#varpull: LoH/cards/Devastatrix|LoH/Card|image}}|180px|]]	Devastatrix: I long ago learned not to question these anachronistic episodes. I just beat everyone up and sort it out in the trainer's room.

Beginning of Fight: Cornerman
[[Image:LoH_Cards_{{#varpull: LoH/cards/The Cornerman|LoH/Card|image}}|180px|]]	The Cornerman: You could barely handle me as Iso-Man from my Meanwhile Squadron days. I have literally forgotten more than you will ever know about fighting but I remember that I owe you a beating.

Beginning of Fight: Sun Steeds
[[Image:LoH_Cards_{{#varpull: LoH/cards/By the Book|LoH/Card|image}}|180px|]]	Chronarchivist: While you have been fighting your past I have consulted my notes about the present.
	Chronarchivist: And Phaeton is not in this timeline. An anomaly of that magnitude would be quite apparent to me.
	Professor Helios: Bring her The Hat. I was in the grip of madness to even entertain his offer of information. He will say anything to save himself and cannot be trusted.
	Young Zeroth: Before she takes him away, I have always wanted to see what was under that mask.
	Young Zeroth: Gasp! Moxie: Choke Billy Stopless: Take the mask with you. Please.
[[Image:LoH_Cards_{{#varpull: LoH/cards/Meanwhile...|LoH/Card|image}}|180px|]]	Moxie: Do you believe her that Phaeton is not real?
	Professor Helios: Not for a second... Young Zeroth: Do you hear that?
[[Image:LoH_Cards_{{#varpull: LoH/cards/Sun Steeds|LoH/Card|image}}|180px|]]	Genesis Squadron Member: Sun Steeds!! Billy Stopless: Fortunately for us they don't exist, right? Genesis Squadron Member: This is no time for jokes Billy! Billy Stopless: Call it wishful thinking.
