For your audio pleasure

You head out into the night, heading toward the old but unusually beautiful Sacred Temple, where you were told there was a space that needed Seinaru. From what Yasha told him and what DracoBolt reported, there was an incident here where an Angel of Utopia, Sankala the Sylveon, had met with Eldtrin the Arcanine here many, many years ago. Far beyond even the days of the cataclysm, but despite the world-ending horror that had claimed so many lives and destroyed so many cities and establishments, this temple still stands and this sacred ground remains, surviving in a world gone cold and dark...

You head toward the back of the temple, and you sense that spot, even in the darkness, even when the sun has done down and the light in the sky has been dulled to moonlight, you still feel it, drifting through your fur like a gust of wind, and revitalizing you like a transcendental meditation.

After softly approaching the very location, you find the Sacred Ground, as if lying in wait all this time. You focus your energies, having used them many times before to defeat an impressive number of Corruption Eyes. But here, you use it for a whole different purpose. To communicate with a realm beyond what the living eye can see, past the veil of the living...

Driving back the night, the holy light pours out from you, and surrounds the area. The very Sacred Ground becomes lit like a beacon of light-shining divinity, and then...

...you feel a connection like none other you have ever felt is made.

You behold a vision, but all you see is seemingly infinite white, the entrance and opening to where you cannot even begin to imagine what Utopia, the resting place of all good Pokémon souls, is like upon the other side. For the moment, your spirit still remained anchored to your living body, but you can still comprehend what the light means, and it seems endless, shining ever brightly welcoming all who gaze upon it. It slightly pulsates, as if waiting for an answer.

And you call out...

"...Please, if anyone is there..." you shout, hearing your voice echo through the eternities, "We need someone. Yaru... Salvage Keep... the Enthrallers of the Abyss have found their way here, but we can't fight them alone..."

...

You open your eyes and see the temple grounds once again, and for a short moment, you think maybe the attempt to reach out to Utopia failed or got disconnected. But then, standing before you, you see them... Sankala the Sylveon and Eldtrin the Arcanine. They are enveloped with a ghostly but comforting light, and it seems they beckon for you to approach them.

"Daniel..." Sankala tells you with a soft but reassuring angelic voice. "We heard your call, and Utopia answers. While you may not see it, the war between Utopia and the Abyss escalates, and the entire universe is becoming a battlefield. We suspect that what we are facing now is just but a precursor to something far more dire than any of us have imagined."

"Before, the battles were only fought on the ethereal planes," Eldtrin explains as the tiger-colored wolf looks upon you with his reassuring, regal eyes. "Utopia and the Abyss fought to guide the fates and alignments of the living, whether it be for good or for evil. What you see unfolding here on Yaru is the Abyss's frontline Enthraller infiltration forces working in the shadows. This war was supposed to remain unseen, but those days are past us now. The Abyss broke the boundary lines, and their dark work has crossed the veil to be seen, to be felt, and to harm and destroy the living, even targeting their souls before proper judgment. After being unable to counter these Enthrallers, Utopia's stealth operatives have withdrawn and we have needed to call in Emissaries such as yourself to help us, but still remain hidden and seemingly unaffiliated in these confrontations. The Abyss has been active upon not only Yaru, but upon Aryia, Valdyne, and Barendal as well. And there are many others, fighting but tragically failing against them."

"Utopia is preparing for total war," Sankala warns you. "The Pokémon of the living plane will have to decide who to side with. There are many that still hope and have faith as we assemble and prepare our forces, but there are others that have lost their faith and have become swayed by sin and malice, offering their dark services in exchanges for the infernal powers that the Abyss promises. And while Yaru is a wounded world, it is not dead, nor is it forgotten. We need you and the other Emissaries to fight the Enthrallers here while we prepare for the final battles."

With an incredible display of light, you see the Sacred Ground enveloped and fully blessed, radiating with holy light, and even grass, Utopian flowers, and comforting protective warmth are now here, as if in this small area, the cataclysm never happened.

{Sacred Ground: <Seinaru>}

"What you need now is the Sacred Lands Blessing," Eldtrin explains. "Once the connection of the blessing of Utopia meets the blessing of Yaru, the two will be completely linked, and the construction of the Altar will begin. To ensure Yaru is on our side, we need to purge out the Enthrallers that have infiltrated within Salvage Keep's citizens. That alter will be your catalyst and conduit in destroying the Enthrallers that now lurk within the shadows here, masquerading as former civilians."

{Sacred Ground: <Seinaru> has become {Sacred Ground: Sacred Lands Blessing}

"We're on your side, Emissary," Sankala smiles at you, filling you with assurance. "All the best to you. We all need to prepare ourselves for what will be coming for us all in the days to come, and the more time that you buy for us, the more prepared we will be in the battles to come."

Suddenly, the light fades away, and with it, the vision of Sankala and Eldtrin fades with it. Now knowing what is at stake, you understand why Utopia's involvement has been on a limited front. They're preparing for all out war, and you cannot even begin to fathom what that may look like as it's waged upon the plane of the living. But it occurs to you that this war... this may in fact be the beginning of the end, and what becomes of the living worlds of the universe depends on who will claim victory in that war to end all wars...
