Dimension Gate: The Last Cry For Help

The dimension was falling apart under what was supposed to be a peaceful reign over the dimensions. Some unfinished business became Prime Chaos in the background whilst Tigen was creating the Stellar Garden with Pumpkinhead. "Oh Damn," Tigen swore, "Tigen Needs To Actually Come Up With A Way To Get Tymon's Mojo Back, Baby!" Tymon wasn't feeling all too up to himself, and that meant Tigen was slacking somewhere -- being Tymon's very Free Will, and all.

"How Dare Tigen Not Have It!" Kairo Tigen cried, slapping himself silly like the goofball he was.

Still.

This was a serious matter and Tigen had to make sure he kept everything together, even though he wasn't feeling so hot.

"Tigen Has This Horrible Cabin Fever..." Tigen went on, telling about his whole life story, like he did when he was very nervous about something, "And Tigen Needs To Do Something That Blows Tigen's Mind!"

He stood at the Dimension Gate waiting for someone to appear to help him with this dilemma, where they would be greeted by a small platform with a miniaturized scale of the Veritas on it, all in an array of rainbow colors.

, but all of a sudden Tigen felt something whisper in his ear. " So what's going on on Ye' Mate." You seem down?

Tigen saw that it was a Primordial friend from another realm that came up to greet him. "Tigen Is Doing Tiger's Best." He sighed heavily.

You know it's your certainty & will that binds and keeps this World together. You have to have the strength & perseverance to get though this. Otherwise this World will fall apart. Can I bug you to ask what's troubling you? In a calm, but serious tone.

Tigen was a very shy and personal aspect of Tymon that, even when exposed and freely doing what it liked, was still a very reserved Spirit. Somewhat private, but still very social.

Tigen warped to the side of his friend and placed a hand on his shoulder, saying, "It's A Very Long Story... That Goes Back To How The Veritas Keeps Getting Attacked. The Veritas Is Defended And Impenetrable, But It Is Nearly Lifeless Save For The Natural Residents, Which Are Just Part Of A Large Hive Mind." They weren't like having guests or visitors or foreigners.

"Tigen Needs Help From Others Because Tigen's Will Has Been Damaged When Tymon Went Through Something Terrible. Now The Veritas Suffers Just Like Before..."

Ah! this is why the Order brought me here. How may I be of service to you young Tigen? My name is Pharist Fist Primordial Will. I can do pretty much anything within reason. Your will is my command.

The Order abides me to go by "the code."

"Tigen Is Tigen," Tigen said, introducing himself somewhat casually. "Kairo Tigen, If You Are Honoring Me For Being King Of The Dimensions." Pharist did not have to call Tigen 'Kairo Tigen' because Tigen was already a really humble person and didn't like to force things upon people nor to glorify himself too much. "Tigen Is A Free Will -- The Free Will Of Tymon, No Less. Tigen Is Similar To You Except Tigen Is The Primordial Will Of A Different Dimension; The Dimension That You Are In Right Now -- The Veritas!"

Kairo Tigen sifted into the form of an aqueous man-like being with a hair-like appendage that drooped over one eye, as well as a large, bulbous head resembling a pumpkin or a light bulb. Tigen hovered before Pharist and glowed with Dimensional Energy, which filled his body and gave his liquid form some physical mass.

"Yes, The Order Is Strange," Tigen agreed with Pharist, "But Fate Has Us Here For A Reason, Tigen Thinks." Tigen was aware of 'The Code' of 'Order,' but was interested in what Pharist meant. "The Code?" Tigen inquired curiously, "Please, Enlighten Tigen." Tigen's Will was to have a social engagement with someone so that Tigen could get things situated in the Veritas simultaneously. Tigen was a multitasker and worked best when multitasking. "Maybe Some Existential Conversation, Or Some Sort Of Epic Fight?"

I am a peaceful being I do not wish to fight, but a conversation I can do.

Tigen smiled at Pharist and said, "Okay, Tigen Will Tell You About The Veritas." That seemed to be the best thing to do.

"The Veritas Is A Dimension That Has Its Own Universe And Planets Inside of It, All Of Which I Rule Over Because Of Tymon," Tigen began to say. "It Is Created Out Of His Very Body Using His Alter Ego, Known As 'Khrona'." Tymon went through a lot in several year from being the Hokage of a village (as Khrona) to the Tree of Life to God, and he was happy that he did all of those things because The Veritas was now such a well developed and highly advanced placed that he had more than enough space to do whatever he wanted.

"The Trouble Is That It Gets Lonely Here In The Veritas." Tigen pulled some Liquid Energy out of the air and morphed it into various shapes, playing with it gently, "And Because Tigen And The Rest Of Tymon's Beings Destroyed Someone's Planet By Doing All Of This, Some Old Friends Find Us Dangerous And Don't Want To Come To The Veritas, Or Tried To Sabotage The Veritas." Tigen sighed heavily, letting the Liquid Energy disperse back into the atmosphere, which was a primordial void. "Now The Veritas Waits For Anyone Who Wishes To Inhabit It, And So Do We." Tigen looked at his aqueous hand of crystal and peered into the dimensions to see if he could find anyone that would be willing to come to the Veritas.

"Tigen Is Happy That You Came, Pharist, But Tigen Doesn't Know If You Will Be Able To Help Unless You Actually Come Inside Of The Veritas And Meet Some Of The Beings That Live There."

Then that is what I shall do.

What creatures live in the Veritas?

Tigen prodded his fingertips together, changing from a shade of bluish gray to a greenish blue, "Uhm. Well, Tigen Has To Introduce You To The Native Spirits So You'll Know The Energy Of The Land, And Also The Guardians, And The Rulers, And..." Tigen went on and on about how many different beings lived in the Veritas, but when it came to the Creatures, that was a separate story entirely.

"Oh, A Lot Of Creatures Live In The Veritas!" Tigen said. "Most Of Them Are Good, But Recently, Some Bad Ones Have Been Popping Up Because They Have Been Infected By The Outside World, Which Drives Them CRAZY!!"

Tigen, now turning a bit purple in color, would absent-mindedly pull up the list of Creatures in the space right in front of Pharist, allowing him to see exactly what Creatures there were listed in the Bestiary. "We Got Water Monsters, Air Monsters, Fire Monsters... Ground Monsters... Electric... Monsters... You Name It, The Veritas Has It!" Tigen smiled, his color returning to its natural greenish blue hue, "We Even Have Pet Monsters And Dragons And Cool Stuff Like That!"

If Pharist was interested, they could go on a Monster Hunt. In fact...

"There's A Monster Hunt Going On Right Now In The Veritas, If You're Interested In The Monsters. Some People You Might Like Are Already Out And About Dealing With Them!"

then we set out immediately to this so called hunt.

Tigen clapped his hands together and glowed a bright green all over his body. "HOORAY!!! Let's Get To It~!"

Since they were already at the Dimension Gate, they could just warp to the location that there was an infestation of Monsters and deal with that.

"We Can Start Off With Something Easy," Tigen would say as his color slowly eased itself back to the natural greenish blue, "Then If You Like, We Can Fight A Boss~!"

The Dimension Gate portal opened up in front of them at the Central City of the Delta, where the Festival of the Monster Hunt was happening already. Tons of creatures could be seen running wild and rampant, and first on the list were some 'Street Rats'.

"Just Jump Through The Portal Anytime To Get Started!"

Tigen jumped through first.
