Dialogue[]
Caption: When the Hulk finally falls unconscious, Kushala's ritual blooms in a shower of chromatic energy and smoke.
Caption: As the smoke clears, a strong and sturdy figure rises out of the bonfires embers...
Kushala: Summoner, I would like to introduce you to... Chee'ilth.
Chee'ilth: Sup cuz, heard you got a big green problem in need of solving? Kushala: Thank you for agreeing to come to the Battlerealm Chee'ilth, I know what you're sacrificing to be here. Chee'ilth: I go where I'm needed, and I'm needed here. Though I don't mind saying the trip across was bumpier than I thought it'd be. Kushala: I wish we could take more time for you to acclimate to the Battlerealm's unique interpretation of reality, but we're already short on time. Chee'ilth: Fair enough, but first lemme help jolly green here. Caption: Before Kushala can stop them, Chee'ilth is kneeling over the collapsed pile of Hulk. Placing their hands on them, Chee'ilth begins to pray...
Caption: ...within moments, vile green steam rises off the Hulk's body as it slowly reverts to the slumbering form of Bruce Banner.
- Transmission #1 - Upon starting the Quest
Kushala: I had heard you possessed the ability to heal the mutates, but hearing it is a far cry from seeing it first hand. Chee'ilth: Haha, don't get too excited cuz. That Hulk is a special case. The big guy is beyond my skill to "cure", but I did purify the evil inside him. Chee'ilth: There's still a big, green rage monster inside, but next time he turns it'll be to smash the bad guys and not the good. Chee'ilth: Haaaa! Now I'm all riled up and ready to run. Where to first? Kushala: Not far. Before your arrival I divined the likely location of an emerging "Green Door". Kushala: I believe we'll find the One Below All and its minions waiting for us there. Chee'ilth: Skoden!
- Transmission #2
Chee'ilth: So, Summoner was it? You fought the OBA before? They're bad news... but Kushala says you're tough enough to help get the job done. Chee'ilth: Hope all that shop talk didn't get your brain too muddy. Guess I should explain what a "Green Door" is real quick... Chee'ilth: The One Below All is stuck in the Below-Place. It's like this bottom layer of the Multiverse, a place so low they say sits under Hell. Chee'ilth: Wouldn't be surprised if your Battlerealm is built right on top of it. Anyway, Green Doors are these supernatural gates that open up there. Chee'ilth: They're extra bad because the OBA doesn't need a mutate to come through them. Just walks right in like a lousy colonizer. The worst house guest! Chee'ilth: So you can see why we'd wanna make sure that doesn't happen.
- Transmission #3
Caption: The trio of heroes find themselves in a strange and wintry boreal forest, the cold chill of icy winds swirling around them.
Chee'ilth: I thought this place would be all starships and space aliens, not western Canada winter. Almost reminds me of home. Kushala: Something is wrong, that same force as before... malevolent... powerful. It is close... Caption: The wind shifts and roars into a full-on blizzard, forcing the heroes to close ranks and push on into the snowy abyss.
Kushala: It's trying to hide in the storm! Halt our progress! Drive us away! Chee'ilth: Then let's see how the hunter likes becoming the hunted! Hold your ground here, I'll be right back! Caption: With barely a sound Kushala disappears into the supernatural storm, enveloped by the roar and furor of the blizzard.
- Transmission #4
Caption: The distant sound of struggle bursts to life as a raucous ball of rage and fur rolls out of the surrounding trees.
Caption: Chee'ilth, battered but unbeaten, rolls out of the fray to reveal the frothing and furious Sasquatch.
Kushala: Summoner! Be careful, that is not Dr. Walter Langkowski. Tanaraq has taken control, and now wields him as a weapon.
Sasquatch: Very wise sorcerer! But even for you this fight is foolish. You seek to defeat a foe beyond any power in this paltry realm. Sasquatch: The One Below All is almost here. Its presence makes me stronger. Strong enough to take back control of the body that is rightfully mine. Sasquatch: And I will not let you prevent its arrival. No, instead your bones will make the most glorious altar to its greatness! Chee'ilth: Brother Grizzly says it's wicked to defile the dead. Sister Eagle says the OBA has corrupted you. I just think you need a serious butt-kicking. Sasquatch: Insolent child! I'll make sure you die screaming! Chee'ilth: Stoodis!
