Henir's time and spaceLuto simply looked at Jack as he nodded before turning back to Nera and Renamon. The old time controller chuckled at Nera's remark for he did find it entertaining, and even quite true.
"Why yes that is true, for a duo we may not interact much and upon first glance we seem to be at odds. So much so to the point that one would find it kind of funny..." Luto replied as he let out a tired sigh before teleporting back to his throne.
"Now it is up to you young fox from the digital land. You may join in whenever you'd like, but for this next challenge it will take more than brute force. Also I have given you your physical bodies as we speak. In turn you all will be fighting in your actual bodies, and as such there is a chance that you will suffer quite some serious injury. So a word of advice is to be careful, I will heal any injuries you may receive after each challenge, but during the challenges you will be limited by the limits of your physical bodies. So be careful and don't die... Even though death will not be permanent here, but if you do die during a challenge I will resurrect you. Well I wouldn't say it's dying per say, but you will still suffer very much the same injuries and be limited by your bodies physical capabilities unlike before. This means you can be brought into a state similar to that of death, but it would be more like you will be in a short coma for a few seconds before you are "revived" with you awake in the real world without much of a reward... well at least for these next two challenges at least. The third and final challenge I will not limit you at all. Now as for the next challenge... I think that it should be something a bit different than brute force." Luto said as he sat down gently in his throne, and almost immediately he began thinking of a better next challenge than the one Glaive had originally planned.
"Hmm... tell me... have you ever encountered something... that inspires paranoia? Something that made you feel completely helpless? For in this next challenge I will be disabling your inhuman abilities. You will have to use your wits and knowledge to win this next challenge. As such no superhuman strength, no aura, no digital powers, no "special moves" only your skill and wits can get you through this next challenge. No cheating, and absolutely no giving up! For that would be boring now won't it? As for the challenge... I will be sending you to a town... a town where those who entered it had left with scars on their mentality. A town that calls people to it, and those who answer its call suffer through nightmares that most mortal men could not possibly imagine... Well save for that time traveling man from the future there... and maybe you two as well Fox and Jackal. You are quite brave, and had faced threats that would make some of the bravest warriors piss themselves in fear... " Said the old man as he took a deep breath while lifting up his keyblade. He then with a slammed the end of the keyblade onto the platform in front of him.
Quickly the void began to disappear as what appeared to be a road on a cliffside began to form around the trio. However visibility was quickly beginning to drop as a very thick, almost impenetrable fog began to form around them all the while something that looked and smelled like... ashes gently began to fall from the sky akin to that of a light snowfall. When everything finished forming around the three challengers something could be faintly seen in the distance... It was... a sign...
