"Now that you know what this place is called, it doesn't an that this place is lonely and isolated. In what we call the First Landing, humans and elves ca together due to a phenonon that affected the multiverse. This led to humans and other species coming here, but also, with that ca magic and chaos. Among them ca the elves from a certain dinsion. But once that phenonon was over, the elves couldn't go back, and though so elves had the power to traverse the multiverse, they refused to do so and considered this place their ho. Mind you, what I am describing happened thousands of years ago.
These elves established themselves here, and over ti they taught humans how to do magic. But humans, being the wretched beings that we are, betrayed them and are responsible for driving them almost to extinction. And it didn't help that so elves who resided in their ho world looked down upon them and considered them as slaves."
Liam took a deep breath as he said this. The more Liam spoke, the more surprised the three enhanced beings were. Liam knew the deep story, and it could be said that his knowledge about history rivaled theirs. So how co his customs differed from theirs on such a drastic scale?
"But here cos the kicker. The elves of the other world are facing a disaster and thus need to relocate to a place where they can survive the disaster or do sothing to stop the disaster. Those specters you encountered are those sa elves. And their na is called the Wild Hunt," Liam said. He didn't want to bring up the na of Ciri here because Geralt was very protective of his daughter, and so was Yen.
So it was better to skip the Ciri part.
"And I am guessing that you two are the most powerful people of the Continent, so they wanted to take you out," Natasha said, looking at Geralt and Yen.
"Yeah... Sothing like that," Geralt said.
"What is that phenonon that affected this place?" Barton asked.
"It's called the Conjunction of Spheres. Yeah, I know what you are thinking... What if our ho is affected too by a situation like this, or was it affected before? The answer is yes and no," Liam said.
"Explain," Tony asked.
"Our ho has its own version of the Conjunction of Spheres. It's just that instead of affecting the multiverse, which connects our ho, it connects the Nine Realms. So we are safe in that regard," Liam said.
"Phew... And here I thought I would have to fight monsters again," Barton said as he touched his bow. It was very surreal to him when he thought about it. From going undercover and undertaking missions that involved normal human beings to fighting monsters left and right.
He wasn't sure if his children would ever believe him if he disclosed what he was fighting all this ti. That included his wife too. Liam wasn't finished, though, as he looked at Geralt and the others and asked:
"I assu you have uncovered so of our origin from my words here."
"You don't belong to the Continent and have arrived from a different world," Yennefer said outright.
"Bingo," Liam said.
"What?" Geralt asked as he didn't understand what "bingo" ant.
"Ah, sorry... I an yes, you are right. We ca here on our own accord to gain knowledge. By knowledge, I an magic. All kinds of magic. And for that, I would need to consult the druids, sorcerers, and yes, those bastards of the Wild Hunt too. Though I don't think they would give us anything willingly, and I would have to search for them," Liam admitted.
"But from what I see, you have command over magic too," Yennefer said, looking at Tony.
"More knowledge is never a bad thing. Besides, it's a trial for us," Liam said.
"A trial?" Geralt asked.
"Yes. You can think of it as a way to hone ourselves. We had been sent here to acquire knowledge so that we beco more powerful. We have been given 15 years to complete the trial, and we will promptly leave after that," Liam said. This was, of course, part of the truth. "I assu you don't believe those words of mine, and I won't bla you for that. Nor will I convince you to believe ," Liam said.
"And these ntors of yours sent you for this trial with tidbits of information about our Continent?" Vesemir asked. He was a bit unsettled, along with his companions too. They found it hard to believe that so people out there who had never lived here would know so much about them.
Logic said that it was not possible because it would an that the humans of another place had been looking at them from afar and refused to help them. But the powers and mannerisms this new group had shown had already defied logic.
"They don't know everything, and honestly speaking, before sending in with my friends, they had spoken a lot, and I chose to forget the most part," Liam said with embarrassnt. This was the truth, though. He loved The Witcher for sure and had read a bit about them, but the ga had far more information, which he had long forgotten and only had so vague mories. Crones and druids were one of them, and the latter group's location was already forgotten by him.
He would need the help of Geralt in this. Of course, in return, their group would help him too, as he had already decided to confront the Wild Hunt and steal their knowledge. This was his main quest, while his friends would help him establish a better order here, to the best of their abilities.
The evaluation would be based on how much influence Liam was able to exert in this world. The more influence, the better the evaluation. Liam believed that it would an that if they were able to topple kingdoms and establish a better order, that would an they had established quite the influence.
