She visibly became more powerful, more there. Even when the soul of her mother approached, Serena turned and welcomed her. [Player note - Serena became a demigod, using rules from Deities and Demigods. I'm not going to go into all the details myself, that's for randomling to write herself if she wishes. And besides, events catch up with us rather quickly at this point] Nyon and Malkir between them did a lot more explaining. Tenebrous could be stopped if the Word of Rebirth was gained from this Tower. Malkir could take them all back in time to gain it before Tenebrous arrived, thus preventing him from knowing they had it. The group agreed. Nyon also told them he had foreseen all that had occoured, and all his manipulation had been to drive them towards this moment so that they could do something about. Casting a powerful magical spell, Malkir wrapped them all in a field of Time and travelled with them backwards, to an earlier age. When the field collapsed, the Tower looked no different, but the ruins around it were full buildings again. Gaining access by flying in through the roof, the group solved riddles and bypassed a gigantic snake to gain access to the final room. The Guardians of the Words gave Serena (the only one of them who could safely speak a Word of Power), after some arguing, the Word of Rebirth and the group left just as Tenebrous broke through the door behind them. Cade had just enough time to make a fractional eye contact before the timefield took them. Arriving back in the present, one of the guardians was outside the Tower. He explained that Tenebrous had killed the other one, and urged the party to make all haste to stop him. Nyon continued his explanations, telling them the future course of events, and predicting his own death against Tenebrous. He told Serena that if ever she spoke the Word of Rebirth, she spoke it for Tomeri, not for him. Serena nodded, too full of emotion to speak. Cade and the others were just about to try and make their way to Pandamonium (the alleged home of the Wand of Orcus) when yet another unexpected event occoured...</blockquote>
