A Poster With Your Image
An artist sent you a poster with a stylized picture of you on the front. Beneath it are the words, 'HOPE'. This poster has been going around the internet after the initial panic that occurred from the news that Darrin Wade killed Sister Psyche. This act was an event you call...
The Last Piece
You knew that Wade intended to merge with Rularuu, but you didn't know how. He set everything up so that Sister Psyche would die, and that he would gain her powers. With this, you have the final piece of Wade's puzzle. He intends to use Statesman's incredible willpower and strength, along with Sister Psyche's mind ride ability, to actually take over Rularuu's shattered mind.
Wade may think he is going to win, given the perception that he led you along all of this time. However, he's continually failed at one major task: killing you. Other heroes have fallen, but you've continued to push on, showing Wade that there still exists someone who his plans can't control.
Wherever Wade is now, you can be sure he's planning on two things: how to join with Rularuu, and how to put an end to your existence. A lesser person would be scared of this, but you know that all this means is that you're the last weakness Wade has in his armor. When the time comes, you're going to put an end to Wade's mad scheme and show the world that true heroes still do exist, and that they're here to protect the people from monsters like Darrin Wade.
Part 1: How it Ends
Briefing
Hey, Character, glad to see you're here. We've got a major situation that we need your help in handling. Sister Psyche's condition is getting worse by the minute. The portion of Aurora Borealis that is trapped within her mind is growing more powerful, causing Sister Psyche's control over her powers to, well, go wild. Manticore has been... well, difficult to work with, at best. We may have a lead on how to actually cure Psyche, but it's not going to be easy. This is why we called you. I won't be much help from my hardsuit, given this is a psychic matter. You're more versatile than I am... well, until I get a promotion to hero status. But that's neither here nor there. If you're ready, I've got the debriefing on the situation and how we can handle this.
Agree to form a task force.
Excellent. We've been trying to work with Manticore to piece together the situation, but we've had little to no luck. We need to rely on rather unsavory resources to handle this. We've heard rumors that the Carnival of Shadows have dealt with situations where two minds are battling it out inside of one person. If that's the case, they may have the answers that we need. Now, to make it clear, we're not asking the Carnival for help. We're arresting them and then telling them that they will be helping us. I don't know about you, but I don't make deals with these people. We've got a reading on where a Carnival party is going on in Peregrine Island. Our psychics say that there's one of the more powerful psychics there, but they're not sure who exactly it is. You need to get in there, find out what they know, and then act on it. Oh, one other thing. The PPD psychics say there were two powerful psychics in there, but one seemed... friendlier? I don't know, but I'd be the on lookout, if I were you. There could be a hero trapped in that office.
Unnecessary Solicitation
Don't worry about me, Character. I'll be monitoring things from here.

Briefing
You see Penelope Yin before you, though many years have passed since she was the girl asking for help in Faultline. She seems to be in her early twenties now, dressed to fight as a real super hero.
Character! I'm so happy you're here. Everyone in the Phalanx refused to accept my help, but I'm totally a trained hero now! I read the minds of the PPD and saw that they were looking for the Carnival, so I decided to come here first to see what's going on. That's when I ran into a little trouble... But I swear, I can fight! I've been training myself and everything! And we'll need all the help we can get. The PPD couldn't tell who was here, but I can, and it's Vanessa DeVore herself!
- Alright, let's get going to find DeVore.
- Great! You lead the way! I'm with you all the way on this, Character, we're going to save Sister Psyche!
- Should I just still call you Penelope Yin, or...?
- Penelope Yin grumbles.
- I had a bunch of REALLY good names for myself, but my friends Jim and Fusionette all laughed at them! Sure, they can have cool names like Faultline and Fusionette, but I'm stuck with just my regular name, all because, 'we can't imagine you as anyone else'.
- That's fine, though, I'll earn myself a name if I have to. I'll show everyone that I CAN be a real super hero!
- What sort of training did you receive? This is very dangerous stuff.
- Well... that's a long story, Character, way too long to get into here. Just know that I can do this, and I know what I'm doing!
- We'll have time later on to go over what I've been doing over the past few years.
Briefing
Well, Character, I'm quite pleased with how this turned out for the both of us. I've heard all about the commotion with little Psyche. You're trying to save her, aren't you?
I suppose I do owe you. I would hate to see what would've happened if Malta captured me. Mm, well, here's how we handle a similar situation.
If two minds are battling within one, we figured that the mind that we want to maintain dominance needs to be powered up in some way. Then, that mind takes control. It's rather simple, but our process only works on, well, those with masks. And I doubt Sister Psyche is willing to have another little date with our mask.
There is a ritual that the Circle of Thorns have, however, that could do the trick, mm? Now, with all that being said, I believe it's time for me to go...
- Alright, Vanessa. I'm letting you off this one time.
- Vanessa DeVore pats your shoulder before fading away into thin air.
- (Leave)
- Not so fast, Vanessa. You're coming with me.
- Vanessa DeVore laughs as she begins to vanish in thin air.
- I believe you have more important things to handle than little old me, Character!
- (Leave)

Message from Specialist Greer |
| Vanessa DeVore informed you that the Circle of Thorns have a ritual that could help save Sister Psyche's life. Specialist Greer contacted you afterward, letting you know that Akarist, a former Circle of Thorns mage, was currently in Portal Corp. He would be the one person who would know about this ritual and how to perform it. |
Unnecessary Solicitation
Akarist should be able to get us the information we need. Just be aware that something bad will definitely happen when you're there.
