''Sparky lands. Roughly. And it looks like he's stuck with a light-shift for now. Filly lands too.''

Cue https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1Q7tuOIiMng.

[Sparky] Ow... what... is this place?

[Filly] Hm? Writing...

[Sparky] Let me see.

Filly tries to read it, but can't. Sparky can make it out clearly.

[Sparky] Th-this is Runic... from Avalice?!

[Filly] How could there be Runic-AV out here this far away from Avalice?

[Sparky] Maybe this will give us a clue. It reads...

"Thermal Base"...

[Filly] Isn't that--

[Sparky] An old base on Avalice... what could this possibly be doing here?

[Filly] Well, we'll have to find out, won't we?

[Sparky] Yep, we'l -- ah, we need a keycard.

[Filly] Well I have one.

[Sparky] Cool.

They proceed.

Unknown to them, they're being stalked.

[???-5 (I SWEAR THIS ISN'T ENOUGH ???s)] ''So... the purple pity and the winged buffoon have arrived... What should I do, Hexxy?''

["Hexxy"] Keep watching. Don't engage... yet. Remember, there's more to them than meets the eye, and I'm sure they'll kill all of us if we aren't careful. Especially the dragon.

[???-5] ''Well, how could something so fragile be so deadly? I'm sure those two aren't any match for me.''

["Hexxy"] The dragon has this many powers, has managed to survive this long, has crashed reality twice I'll remind you, is two people but isn't, which is somehow possible now apparently, and knows too much. Think about it. All of the others have had some form of aid. Including that cat, she was actually aided by the dragon. If he's survived this far on his own, he'll probably be able to wipe any of us Rubics out in a second flat.

[???-5] But how do you wipe out something you never get to touch?

["Hexxy"] My point exactly. Trouble is, he's tactical and practical, which is probably how he'll end up defeating you. Carry on watching. Learn how they work. See if Sara can't help us, then strike quickly at the best time. You're good at murder so I guess I'll leave the rest to you.

[???-5] ''Hmph. Alright then.''
