Now it wasn't like all the Guardians wanted to come out fighting,
which was giving the crew and slaves aboard the air Phoenecian trading subGalleon Dimitrous a headache.
Centuries earlier they'd crossed paths with some Cloud Neptune,who had doomed them to sail this watery Limbo until all the worlds ended,
or until a Guardian came along who could
defeat a Champion and free them.
So here they had been eating Cloud fish for the billionth time and despairing that they would ever be freed of this
doom.
They had seen the visions on the sails of the Dimitros
appear and vanish again,of Champions striding through the Catacombs.
But because they had no Guardian to fight on their
behalf,the 159 forsaken sailors,soldiers,traders and slaves had been passed by the Champions.
Then had come the newest vision of Nat and Chirp
and before you could say
"Phoenia" Chirp had gone through that doorway,burst through the sail
and crashed down on deck.
A more unlikely Guardian there never was and the
Cloud Trader wailed in despair and leapt overboard
for the 10,000 time,only
to be spat out by the waters and rudely dumped
back on deck.
Okay
now they had their Guardian
now they needed to get the
Champion over as well.
It
just so happened that one of the doomed
passengers happened to be the Royal Wizard to
a Sky King from ages past. For quite a while this fellow had used his
spells to offset the Curse the Cloud Neptune
had placed on those aboard
the Dimitros.Perhaps now was the time to use the Curse to help
Chirp defeat a Champion
