Story Prologue

In the heart of the rugged Washington state wilderness, nestled amidst the towering peaks of Averse Mountain, lies an enigmatic facility known only as the Averse Mountain Airforce Base. For decades, it has been shrouded in secrecy, hidden from prying eyes and shielded from the world's inquisitive gaze.

Within the confines of this classified installation, an extraordinary series of clandestine experiments have been unfolding. Scientific minds, military strategists, and the curious alike converge here, drawn by the allure of the unknown.

Two decades ago, a discovery that defied the laws of conventional science shook the very foundation of this covert outpost. A portal to a parallel reality, an anomaly called the "Weird Sphere," had been unearthed. Its origins remained a mystery, but its implications were profound.

With each passing year, the Weird Sphere's secrets became ever more tantalizing. This portal led to a dimension where the rules of physics ceased to hold sway, where reality itself seemed to warp and twist in unpredictable ways. Here, strange phenomena manifested without rhyme or reason, challenging the comprehension of even the most brilliant minds.

As whispers of the Weird Sphere's existence spread beyond the confines of the Airforce base, a series of elite military teams embarked on daring journeys through the portal. Their missions, cloaked in classified reports and sealed within the vaults of secrecy, aimed to explore the uncharted realm and unlock the mysteries it held.

Now, in the shadows of Averse Mountain, a new chapter of discovery and intrigue awaits, as the Averse Mountain Airforce Base continues to guard its secrets, and the Weird Sphere beckons with promises of the extraordinary and the unknown.

Act 1 Meet the Team

The dimly lit command center buzzed with activity as the members of Portal Gate Team 1 assembled, each one bearing a unique background and purpose. Dr. George Cruz, the 33-year-old Mexican intelligence and scientific officer from Mexico City, stood by the control panel, his expression serious and stern. He had a sense of pride in his work at the base, and his keen intellect was matched only by his unwavering dedication to unraveling the mysteries of the Weird Sphere.

Lt. Hank Martin, a grizzled veteran at 55, was their unyielding leader. Hailing from Kradene, Washington, he was known for his tough-as-nails demeanor, a man who never let anyone or anything stand in his way. His years of experience had made him the bedrock of the team, a guiding force that had seen them through countless missions.

Bolar Treey, a 155-year-old Bolian/Human hybrid from the Weird Sphere, was the team's enigmatic member. Despite his age, he appeared as though he were only 20 years old, a testament to the peculiarities of the parallel realm. Bolar was an expert on all things Weird Sphere, his knowledge and insights invaluable to the team's survival and understanding.

On the other end of the spectrum was Bane Ealing, a 23-year-old soldier from Seattle, Washington. Before joining the military, he had been a stand-up comedian, and his sense of humor brought much-needed levity to the team. His father, John, hailed from Ireland, while his mother, Alena, was British, giving Bane a unique perspective that he often used to diffuse tense situations.

Colonel Jeff Walter, a 65-year-old leader with a thick southern accent from Selma, Alabama, presided over the group. His wisdom and southern charm had earned him the respect of everyone at the base, and he was the driving force behind the operations that unfolded within the secretive confines of the Averse Mountain Airforce Base.

As the team gathered around the control panel, their varied backgrounds and expertise formed a formidable ensemble. They were about to embark on another journey through the enigmatic portal, into a realm where the rules of reality were anything but ordinary. The Weird Sphere awaited, and Portal Gate Team 1 was prepared to face the unknown once more.

The Mess Hall, Level 5a, Monday, September 11th, 8 am, Breakfast Time

The Mess Hall buzzed with the sound of clinking cutlery and the aroma of various breakfast dishes. Portal Gate Team 1 had gathered for their morning meal, a brief respite before their upcoming mission to Centara. Alera, the vegan scientist, carefully picked through her omelet, her brow furrowed in concentration. Bolar, the enigmatic expert, observed his friends with his usual quiet demeanor.

Seizing the opportunity to lighten the mood, Bane leaned over toward his teammates and began with a mischievous grin, "Hey, folks, why did the Centaur bring a ladder to the bar?"

Alera looked up from her omelet, curiosity piqued despite her culinary concerns. "I don't know, Bane. Why did he?"

Bane chuckled, "Because he heard the drinks were on the house!" He winked playfully, hoping to elicit a smile.

Alera cracked a reluctant smile, conceding, "Okay, that one got me."

Bolar's lips curled slightly, a faint indication of amusement. He may not have shown it, but he appreciated the attempt at humor.

Encouraged by the response, Bane continued, "And did you hear about the Centaur who opened a bakery? He makes some great 'half-and-half' pastries!"

This time, even Bolar's stoic demeanor cracked, and he let out a subtle chuckle.

Alera, warming up to the light-hearted banter, added, "Well, I guess Centaurs and their puns are a universal constant, no matter the dimension."

Bane nodded, delighted that he'd managed to bring a bit of laughter to the breakfast table. "That's the spirit! Laughter is the best way to start the day, especially when we're headed into the unknown. Plus, it makes even vegan omelets taste better."

As the team shared a moment of camaraderie and humor, they understood that in the face of the peculiarities of the Weird Sphere and the mysteries of Centara, their bond and shared laughter would be the constants that kept them grounded on their extraordinary journey.

Act 2 Wiler the Centaur

In the heart of the Averse Mountain Airforce Base, within a meticulously organized scientific research room, Alera Woosee, a 26-year-old scientist with an insatiable curiosity, was engrossed in her work. The room was bathed in the soft glow of computer screens and the hum of sophisticated equipment.

Before her, on a specially designed examination table, lay a creature unlike any she had ever seen. It was Wiler Agilecrown, a Centaur from the Weird Sphere. His imposing form was a fusion of human and equine, a living embodiment of the parallel reality's wonders.

Alera meticulously examined Wiler, her gloved hands deftly handling scanning devices and sensors. She had spent countless hours deciphering the intricacies of the Centaur's physiology, a task that had been both challenging and exhilarating. Wiler, a proud representative of his realm, watched her with a mixture of curiosity and trust.

As the scientist continued her study, Alera couldn't help but be captivated by Wiler's existence. His presence in their world was a testament to the bizarre and otherworldly nature of the Weird Sphere. Every piece of data she collected brought her closer to understanding the enigma that was the parallel reality, and Wiler Agilecrown, with his majestic presence, was a living link to that mysterious realm.

Act or Scene 3: The Mission to Centara - The Serene Dimension

In the hushed confines of the Mission Debrief Room at the Averse Mountain Airforce Base, Colonel Jeff Walter, with his characteristic southern charm and wisdom, stood at the front of the room, his eyes focused on the assembled members of Portal Gate Team 1. The weight of the mission weighed heavily on everyone's shoulders, for they were about to embark on an unprecedented journey into Centara, Wiler Agilecrown's homeland in the Serene Dimension.

"Gather 'round, folks," Colonel Jeff began, his thick accent lending an air of authenticity to his words. "We're embarking on a mission of great importance today. Our goal is to learn more about the civilization and culture of Centara, the Serene Dimension, from which our friend Wiler hails."

Dr. George Cruz, Lt. Hank Martin, Bolar Treey, and Bane Ealing sat attentively, their faces reflecting a mixture of anticipation and determination.

Colonel Jeff continued, "Wiler's presence here has provided us with a rare opportunity to establish diplomatic relations with the inhabitants of the Serene Dimension. We've learned much from him, but now it's time to witness their world firsthand."

Alera Woosee, the scientist who had studied Wiler Agilecrown so diligently, nodded in agreement, her eyes gleaming with excitement.

"We'll be stepping into the unknown," Colonel Jeff warned, "where the laws of physics may not apply, and strange phenomena are commonplace. But with our combined expertise and the insights provided by Wiler, I believe we're as prepared as we can be."

Lt. Hank Martin, with his no-nonsense demeanor, added, "We'll face whatever challenges come our way head-on, Colonel. Our mission is clear."

Bolar Treey, the enigmatic expert on the Weird Sphere, offered a reassuring nod, his confidence unwavering.

Bane Ealing, the team's humorist-turned-soldier, grinned and quipped, "And if things get too weird, I'll tell a joke to lighten the mood."

Colonel Jeff chuckled, acknowledging the importance of humor in the face of the unknown. "Alright then, team, let's move out. Centara awaits, and the Serene Dimension beckons. Remember, we're not just explorers; we're ambassadors of our world to theirs. Let's make this mission a success."

With resolute determination, Portal Gate Team 1 rose from their seats, ready to embark on a journey that would take them beyond the boundaries of known reality and into the heart of Centara, the Serene Dimension.

Act 4 The Armory

With their breakfast banter and the mission debrief behind them, Portal Gate Team 1 rose from the Mess Hall table, a sense of purpose in their steps. The upcoming mission to Centara required them to be well-prepared, and the Armory was their next destination.

The team made their way down the dimly lit corridors, guided by the familiar hum of the base. They arrived at the Armory, a secure chamber filled with an impressive array of weaponry and advanced equipment. Colonel Jeff had emphasized the need to be equipped for any situation, given the unpredictable nature of the Serene Dimension.

Bane Ealing, always eager to infuse humor into the proceedings, scanned the room and quipped, "I wonder if they have any Centaur-sized joke books in here."

Lt. Hank Martin, his no-nonsense attitude intact, replied, "Save the jokes for later, Bane. Right now, let's focus on gear and weapons."

As they approached the weapons racks, Bolar Treey, the enigmatic Bolian/Human hybrid, stepped forward. He reached for a unique weapon resting on a pedestal—a sleek staff with an ethereal glow. It was his prized possession, the Boolch Staff, a Bolian invention that had been modified for the team's use.

The Boolch Staff featured short and long-range capabilities, making it an ideal choice for the mission ahead. Its ammo consisted of a potent green laser, a feature designed to counteract the unusual phenomena they might encounter in Centara.

Bolar examined the weapon with a sense of reverence, its radiant green glow reflecting in his eyes. He knew that the Boolch Staff was more than just a tool; it was a connection to his homeland and his Bolian heritage.

Alera Woosee, the scientist, selected advanced scanning equipment and communication devices, ensuring they'd have the means to gather data and maintain contact with the base.

Dr. George Cruz reviewed maps and data on Centara's terrain, preparing himself for the scientific aspects of the mission.

Colonel Jeff Walter, a steady presence in the background, observed his team's preparations with a quiet pride. His southern charm and wisdom were a constant source of reassurance.

As they completed their preparations, Bolar nodded, his expression determined. "The Boolch Staff is ready, and so am I. Let's make sure we're well-equipped, team. Centara awaits, and with it, a new chapter in our journey."

With their gear in order and the mission before them, Portal Gate Team 1 stood ready to face the enigmatic Serene Dimension of Centara, bolstered by their camaraderie and their unique tools of exploration and protection.

Continuing from the Armory, Portal Gate Team 1 made their way to the Portal Gate Level, a chamber adjacent to the Armory, where the massive portal loomed large, a swirling gateway to the unknown. The room featured a window with a view of the portal, allowing them to witness its awe-inspiring energy firsthand.

Shaun Patton, the gate operator, stood at the control panel, his fingers poised over the console. He announced with a measured tone, "Gate activation in T-minus five minutes."

The team gathered in front of the window, their reflections dancing on the polished surface as the portal's radiant energies flickered and pulsed. The gravity of their mission weighed on them, for they were about to step into a realm where the rules of reality were anything but certain.

Colonel Jeff Walter, with his southern charm and unwavering resolve, addressed his team. "This is it, folks. We've trained for this, and we're as prepared as we can be. Remember our mission—to learn about Centara, to establish relations, and to navigate the Serene Dimension. Trust in each other and in your training."

Dr. George Cruz, Lt. Hank Martin, Bolar Treey, Bane Ealing, and Alera Woosee nodded in unison, their determination evident.

Alera, the vegan scientist, offered a reassuring smile to her teammates. "And let's not forget our curiosity, which is the driving force behind all scientific discovery."

Bolar Treey, holding the Boolch Staff with a sense of purpose, added, "May the Boolch Staff light our way and protect us from the unknown."

With a deep breath, Colonel Jeff nodded to Shaun Patton, signaling their readiness. The gate operator initiated the activation sequence, and the swirling portal before them pulsed with increasing intensity.

The team braced themselves, their faces reflecting a mix of anticipation, excitement, and a touch of apprehension. As the portal's energies enveloped them, they stepped into the unknown, ready to face whatever awaited them on the other side.

The window with a view of the portal framed their departure, a testament to their courage and the mysteries they sought to unravel. With a final nod from Colonel Jeff, they vanished into the swirling vortex, leaving behind the familiarity of their world for the enigmatic Serene Dimension of Centara.
