Back in the moonlit clearing, in the woods near Vjorica... A humilitingly wounded human mage whimpers (cold and naked) and two elfin folks (just naked but their elfin bodies comfortable enough) from another world look about in wonder....
Meanwhile, down in the Office of Evil an Agent is telling a spoiled brat what is what about her Challenge, who's object have made free by their own luck. An Angel shows up and makes a counter Challenge, stating that if the elves should somehow succeed in defeating a Darkness plot already in the works, then all Hell crew claims on their meat (their now immortal bodies) were dropped and the elves get to choice to join the Army of Light as that august bodies Champions, or as Champions of the Rules and Agents. The last causes the Agent to look at the Angel in question, after the brat accepts, pouting and angry as Hell (natch given the surroundings). "Why?" the Agent asks the surprised Angel. "Does it look like the Office of Chaos and the Office of Order is some kind of...of dumping ground for the odd off?" "But you've complained always of being shorthanded," the Angel protests. "Uh, yes but still....." the Agent sighs, "I already had another Validation Quest for some Terra Prime Champions....." And Champions of Rules and Agents had this odd habbit (either by choice or by happenstance) of disrupting Destinies that are anything less than what has been Authorized by the Higher Up(s)..... "Oh." the Angel says in a small voice.
