He pick up a glass and takes a drink of something, gulps, then says "Well, it's your job to defeat whatever this thing is, with the epic power of metal". He raises a fist to the air "Go on soldier! Your destiny awaits upon frozen waves...eh...maybe frozen waves" He laughs. \n\n"but no, seriously, get out of my bar and complete your quest." \n\n[[Leave]]

<<if $guitar is "yes">>\nYou reach for your guitar\n<<endif>> \nThe church doors open, and the dragon looks over. A man wearing a hat, robes, with facepaint resembling a skeleton and holding a strange staff looks over and says "BAD FLUFFY! That's not at all how we treat guests!" He walks over to the dragon and it lies down and purrs, the skeleton facepaint man pets it on the head. "Who's a little destroyer of realms? Who's a little destroyer of realms? Yooouuu aree!" He looks over to you and sighs "Ugh, sorry about him, he hasn't had a guest in the past few days, anyways I am Papa Emeritus the X. Come in, come in" he points to the door of the church, "I've been expecting you". \n[[Church]]
You walk into the record store, the guy at the checkout counter, the owner who has been here for 8 years, gives you a friendly nod. \nYour phone begins to ring\n[[awnser phone]]\n[[Explore record store]]
You go down the hatch, and are on the balcony of a large two floored room, computers everwhere, <<if $crew is "yes">> two people in purple armored suits appear <<endif>>\nA robot appears! \n[[Kick robot]]\n[[Play chord]] \n<<if crew is "yes">>\n[[Punch crewmember]] \n<<endif>> \n
Aestrea laughs "Yeah, that's what most travelers usually say, just wait till we get to BayAreaVillage. Fendaria isn't far either, and you would probably like it there too."\n[[Those are awesome town names]]
There is a heavy smell of beer in the air, and several people in pirate hats, eyepatches, and they all look at you "It's Abott!" One of them yells, and they all cheer. Aestrea says to the bartender, wearing a Metal Maiden shirt "We're looking for Chris, do you know where he is?" The bartender says "Yeah, he's upstairs. He's been waiting for you dudes." \n[[Explore the tavern]]\n[[Go upstairs]]
You can have either the: \n\n[[AMARTH AMON]] patch,may the epic viking riffy death growling chaos increase your strength. \n\n\n[[SLAY]] patch, may the speedy riffs and double bass drumming increase your shredding speed! \n\n[[SUMIRP]] patch, may the insane bass and bizzare lyrics give you a combat advantage. \n\n
You somehow end up in a large stone room, a plauqe on the wall, and a door leading out\n[[Read plaque]]\n[[leave room]]
You are at a huge music festival, there are hundreds of thousands of people around. A large billboard overlooks the field that says "SUPER SUMMER MEGA FEST! HEADLINER: METAL MAIDEN!!" \nThere is a large stage here, you have a backstage pass, because you are in the band. Panera is playing on stage right now, and you're ready to go on at 8:30 pm. \nThere is a \n[[Backstage entrance]]\n[[Campground]]

Aestrea presses a red button on the steering wheel, and the hot rod launches to life, sending the car along the dirt path at breakneck speed. The trees part to your left, and you see the largest lake ever, surrounded by snowcapped moutains. "If Jorgmundr rises up at this time, just ignore him and you'll be okay, he's hungry around SunMid." \n[[Wait, Jorgmundr is in that lake?]]\n[[Yeah this place is awesome]]
You start sprinting through the backstage area, people running about and screaming, trying to make any sense of what is happening.\n<<if $BackstageFan is "yes">>\s\nThe fan you gave a pass to yells from the vending machines "OVER HERE ABOTT, MY TRUCK IS NEAR HERE!"\n[[Follow fan]]\n<<endif>>\s\n[[Run out the back door]]\n[[Run for main lawn]]

"Yes, at first it didn't make sense, but now it does, it's a hidden part of the prophicie Iod didn't write. But it's happening." [[So what do I need to do]]

Several men are looking at you, they don't look starsturck like the fan from SummerFest, but they look at you like you're an old friend they haven't seen in quite some time. One of them says "How ye likin the dimension so far?"\n[[It's amazing]]\n[[I don't know yet]]
She starts up the car and you head through a part of the city you haven't seen before, she leaves the city, through the south exit, and you go down a dark dirt road with dead trees on the right and left. "We're here." Aestrea says. You pull up to a creepy looking old wooden church, gravestones on either side. "Papa ususally doesn't like more than 1 visitor, i'm gonna run... hope I see you again." She winks. "See ya!"\n[[Papa's church entrance]]
He facepalms\n"Oh so sorry I didn't tell you earlier! We got a DesertRock stack! It'll sound great...but it might explode."\n[[Alright]]
There are many tents here, somebody wearing a SeeingGuardian shirt looks over and says "HEY DUDE YOU'RE ABOTT IOMMI FROM METAL MAIDEN!!" \n\n[[Have conversation with fan]]\n
She turns onto a stone path, with tall stone towers in the distance, rising into a red sky and up into the clouds. A massive creature with wings flies through the air above you, it seems much larger than even earth's biggest trees. Aestrea says "It's okay, they don't attack, they'll land sometimes and fight you, only to be defeated by a guitar, then be reborn at the Dragon Moutain." \nOkay, we've arrived at Fendaria.\nTwo gold doors with stone walls are infront of you.\n[[Downtown Fendaria]]
You are in the yard of papa's church, the engine of Aestrea's hot rod in the distance, there is a [[Graveyard]] and a [[Church]] here.
There is a seeing guardian poster here, [[Kick the wall]]
You put on your usual leather jacket, Metal Maiden 2019 tour shirt, remembering back to that awesome tour that was so long ago. You also pick up your special guitar pick, once again it begins to glow for an unkown reason, but seems to be brighter this time. <<set $BackstageThings += 1>>
You show your pass to a security guard, and now you're backstage.

His eyes light up with disbelief. \n\n\nWhat song do you play for the fan?\n[[Metal Maiden- Satelitte 16]]\n[[Seeing Guardian- The Guard's Song]]\n[[ExtraLargeDeath - Symphony of Chaos]]\n
You walk out onto a small dirt path winding through a forest of the tallest trees you've ever seen; and see the person who was probably talking to you. She's wearing full green armor, with patches of bands you've never heard of scattered about, and has the coolest guitar you've seen. It's made out of what looks to be motlen stone, and is shaped like the wing of a dragon. "My name is Astraea, we've definitley been expecting you". She plays a chord more powerful then any chord you've ever heard on her guitar and a bolt of lighting gets launched from the head of the guitar into the forest. "Wait for iiiittt" she says, you hear a roar followed by the ground shaking, but can't tell where it's from. "Ice giants fall like bass drums when you hit them with lightning"\n[[Um okay, this place is awesome]]\n[[I want to know where I am and why i'm here. And now]]
A large crowd forms around, and everybody begins to sing along to the epic Seeing Guaridan anthem. \n"Now you all know, guard's and their songs! When hours have gone by, i'll close my eyes, in a world far away we may meet again. But now here my song, about the dawn of the night, let's sing the guards song!" \nThe rest of the song is epic, despite all the time's you've played live covers, chills still go up your spine. \n[[I gotta run man, have fun at the show]]
Home, home again, you like to be here when you can.\nYou notice there is some mail on the table\n[[Read mail]]

"AWESOME!!" He says. \n"I play guitar too!" he exlaims.\nHe pulls out an old acoustic. \n[[Start playing his guitar]]\n[[Give fan a backstage pass]]\n
You completley obliterate the robot \n[[Ship cabin]]
There is a manager's car here, he has all but one seat filled, with the spaceship approaching and playing cliche pop chord progressions from the speaker. \n[[Get in car]]
Ah, the feeling of walking out on stage to the epic roar of the crowd, there really is nothing like it. \n\nNickoMcDailor, the drummer, counts you off for the guitar intro, and your pick begins to glow brighter as the fireworks launch. \n\nPlay an\n[[Eminor]]\n[[Cminor]]

"Ah, you will soon, wait till ye get to the Guitar Dueling Pits!"

You press a button on the control panel, and the ship goes spiraling down towards lake Jorgmundr, as the water approaches through the glass dome and the ship turns sideways you are thrown against the wall furiously punching at the king while he does the same. \nYou crash into the lake, where the hungry serpent awaits, it swallows the huge mothership whole.

Papa yells "It's starting...it's your destiny to win this battle!" \n\nThe ceiling of the church is pulled away by a massive spaceship, similar to the one at SummerFest. \n"WE FOUND YOUR DIMENSION" a speaker plays "SURRENDER NOW OR BE STERLIZED!" Papa looks up at the ship, takes a microphone from his pocket and yells, "WE DID IT ONCE WE CAN DO IT AGAIN!". He points the microphone towards the ship and a bolt of yellow (possibly arcane) magic goes flying towards it, the ship swerves left, and somebody on the ship yells "PREPARE TO BE STERLIZED", and a beam of purple hits papa in the chest, he drops his staff, and he is beamed up into the ship, his last words before he is pulled into the light on the underside of the ship is "GO ON!

Fall onto the roof of the Mothership, its massive purple body shaking in various directions. You see a hatch open and a robot with a tron-like mask comes out, holding something that looks somewhat like a pistol.\n[[Play a chord]]\n[[Punch robot]]

Everybody yells "Kyuss Metallicus and 2112!" \nThe pirate leans back and says "Yeah, that's what happened, while we were all either imprisoned or enslaved, a dude named Kyuss hid in a waterfall with a guitar, discovered this thing called "Electricity" that he used to power it, and with that new thing he brought down the castle and saved us all!"\n[[Epic story]]
"Good. First, you'll need this." He walks over to a door on the side of the small stage, and opens it, it leads to what looks like a closet. "Ah ha, here it is" he hands you a ripped jean jacket. "In this dimension patches and jackets are magical,and give you special abilites, you can also change the strings on your guitar." He pulls out an old cardboard box "Make your choice" he opens the box, it is filled with patches. \n[[Decide first patches]]

Your guitar somehow plays loudly(and with the best tone you've ever heard) with out being plugged in, bolt of orange goes flying out from your guitar's head. \n[[What was that!?]]\n
The dragon is holding you by its claws, you still grip your guitar, and see that the massive city of Fendaria that you visisted is in flames, people(that look like ants from your height) running about, some playing their instruments, their magical patches and guitars,drums,basses,some have keyboards, all playing the most far most epic jam you've ever heard, effecting a massive mother ship you're only above by a few feet.

His voice has a sense of urgency as he says "Well, you need to go to the mothership, defeat the King with the power of all things metal, and destroy the sterlizer once and for all!"

As Papa explains that the patches are magically sticking and don't need to be sewn, the sound of a spaceship goes off in the distance, and Papa burrows his eyebrow. "It's them...get ready!" \n<<if $guitar>> \nyou pull your guitar around to your front, and grab your magical pick from your pocket, standing on the stage of the church wearing your new jacket, ready for the attack.\n<<else>>\nPapa pulls a guitar from the closet, it isn't as cool as Aestrea's but it still looks better than any earthly creation. \nIt is made of bones, in the shape of a flying V back home, with an actual skull as the "head" of the guitar, where the strings and tuning pegs are. He gives it to you and grab your magical pick from your pocket, standing on the stage of the church wearing your new jacket, ready for the attack.\n<<endif>> \n\n[[Church battle]]

The voice echos again "Ah, don't be afraid, we've been expecting you". \n[[leave room]]
The church is a long room, it looks like a normal church, but the stained glass is the most detailed display you've ever seen, the body of a serpent hangs from the ceiling, and albumbs of every good band line the walls. Papa is walking in first, between the pews. "This is less of a church and more of a town hall to be honest" Papa says. "We use it for council meetings and such". He turns around and looks at you "I'm sure you'd like to know about your quest, i've figured it out." \n[[Good you've figured it out]]\n[[I do]]
Aestrea laughs "Okay, well you can ask a question during the long ride".\n[[Why am I here]]\n[[Where am I]]\n
Aestrea pulls the car through the big golden doors that slowly open opon your arrival. Towering buildings of a shining iron surrond you and go in all directions. People in battle jackets and leater boots walk about. Rumstorm plays from the atmostphere as people sing along as they walk to wherever they're going.The sky above is red, with three suns, this is the first time they aren't behind the trees. \n"Okay, first I should take you to Captain Chris, Papa is probably busy with something else" \nShe turns into a small alleyway, with wooden buildings that look like they were used for pirates. "Here we are" she says, and the car pulls into \n[[Nancy's Harbor Cafe]]\n
"Well that's really something for Papa to explain, there was a prophiece about an epic battle between the Prince of pop and our cities, but that ended and we won, it didn't account for what happened at SummerFest. It didn't say anything about that." Aestrea says nervously. \n"Okay, we've arrived at Fendaria."\n[[Downtown Fendaria]]
You go upstairs, and a man in a full pirate outfit is looking over a table with a map of the SummerFest field. He looks up "Yarr, look at who the tides of Jorgmundr's lake brought in! What's up dude, my name is Captian Chris, and I'm an alchoholic!" he laughs, "Nah, I just like rum! Yar har har! Anyways, I know what happened at SummerFest, and it isn't a very good thing."\n[[I can tell]]\n[[It's not]]
\nYou step out onto the deck, the screen and amps covering the fact that you're there.

You enter the cabin, which has a large glass winshield, the ship is shaking alot from the guitar fire from below. A large chair has it's back turned to you, various panels line the walls. The chair turns around, a full purple figure with no body or facial features faces you, only the simple human form, almost like a person in a morph suit, without saying a word he presses a button on a control panel and picks up a thing that looks almost like a rifle and points it at you.\n<<set $kinghealth to 20>>\n[[Play loud chord]]\n[[Hit button on control panel]]\n[[Punch king]]\n
You kick the robot, it punches back, but it collapses after and says "battery error, alerting crew members" \n<<set $crew to "yes">>\n[[Down hatch]]
You play a chord and the king demateralizes! The sterlizer stops firing, The ship jolts, and you realize Papa's dragon has it under control. He puts the ship down in Lake Jorgmundr, where a crowd of millions awaits, cheering for you, savior of the 6th dimension. \nYou got the WIN ending!\nThank's so much for playing! \n-Kronosaurus 2015 \nLudum Dare Compo

As you begin to play the famous riff that goes into the crowd's favorite song. The stage lights go out, the amps stop, and a large purple spaceship drops down from the sky. The crowd runs in fear as beams of light a few people and it brings them up to the bottom of the ship. A speaker pops out of the top of the ship.\nA voice says:\n"We are AutoTuners, and your rock shall not be allowed on planet earth , PREPARE TO BE STERLIZED!!"\n[[run backstage]]

Ah, the guitar room. Your favorite room in every stadium you've ever played. Guitars line the walls, looking like weapons of an ancient epic viking tribe. Your usual Defend TeleBroader hangs in the center as if it's the sacred sword. \n[[Take telebroader]]\nA [[C.B Poor Warlord]] hangs on the wall as well. \n<<set $BackstageThings += 1>>
You play a chord and the robot shatters into a million pieces.\n[[Down hatch]]
You turn back around from the campsite to the massive field that looks over at the stage where the band Panera is causing the usual chaos.

She laughs and it echos throughout the forest "Hahaha, you'll understand soon traveler. Arcane portal lag wears off after a few days.

I see you have a guitar, let's see you summon a rod, play a G"\n<<if $guitar is "yes">>\nI see you have a guitar, let's see you summon a rod, play a G"\n<<else>>\nShe plays a power chord, and a bolt of orange goes flying out from the guitar head.\n<<endif>>
You are in a studio, sitting across from somebody from some popular music news webiste. A camera turns on.\n"Hey guys it's David Urungus from Rocknews talking to Abott Iommi about the said 'alien attack' at Summer Fest, Abott, what exactly happened?"\n\n[[I was playing and this thing just comes out of the sky, I ran after that]]\n[[I have no clue]]

"The story of acousta? Well, one day some people came through the portal that shouldn't have, they autotuned everything, made everything sound the same, wanted it to be 'mainstream', whatever that means, and they burned all of the cities that didn't agree." \n[[How did you guys survive]]
You let the call go to voicemail, even though you don't have a voicemail, because they'd most likely all be calls from fans. \n[[Go home]]
