Monika: when did Chloé get a UBL? We just assumed it was around the same time as Réné.
Monika: Don't ask me, the two narrators are constantly fighting for control and it's breaking the story in a Metaphysical way.
Monika: who am I to change their story!

[The Gathering of Heroes]
The setting sun cast a warm, golden hue over the city, illuminating the towering skyscrapers and quiet streets. In a high-rise apartment overlooking the skyline, Master Wu awaited the arrival of the heroes. The apartment was minimalist but elegant, with modern furnishings and large windows offering panoramic views. As the doorbell rang, Master Wu prepared for the critical discussion ahead.
The heroes—Funneh Kalana, Chloé Strom, Chloe Kalana, René Dupré, and Inquisitor IL-Suk— and Chloe Stemdragon all entered in pairs, each greeted with a mix of curiosity and apprehension. The urgency of the situation was evident in their expressions as they settled into the room.
Master Wu, a figure of calm authority, stood in the center of the room, his presence commanding respect. He began speaking as the heroes gathered, his voice steady and authoritative.
"Thank you all for coming. I have important matters to discuss regarding the recent events and the future challenges you may face." Master Wu's gaze swept over the group. "Firstly, the reason you were able to defeat Xaliron and his forces was due to the utilization of Crisis Energy. Without it, the outcome could have been very different. It was a pivotal factor in your victory."
The heroes exchanged glances, the weight of this revelation sinking in.
"Secondly," Master Wu continued, "all of the Ultimate Legendary Beasts you've encountered—HappyGoLucky, Pheonixa, and Lynxie—are no longer available. They have been transferred to new entities known as Lumisprites. These Lumisprites embody similar traits and have designs reflecting the mythical beasts they represent."
Funneh's eyes widened with concern. "Are these Lumisprites weaker than the UBLs?"
"Yes," Master Wu confirmed. "The Lumisprites will be significantly weaker, and you will not be able to access the same powerful forms you once had. Their designs will be inspired by the mythical beasts they represent, each with their own unique characteristics."
Chloé Strom, with a thoughtful expression, asked, "And what about IL-Suk?"
Master Wu nodded. "Inquisitor IL-Suk is an exception. Her abilities are inherently durable, and she is not affected by the transfer of power. However, she will need to adapt to the new circumstances just like the rest of you."
René Dupré leaned forward, intrigued. "What are these new entities and how do they work?"
Master Wu replied, "The Lumisprites are the new bearers of power. Each Lumisprite is linked to a mythical beast, and their designs are inspired by these creatures. They are summoned and managed by Envoyants, beings who act as intermediaries and possess designs reflecting the Lumisprites they represent."
The heroes took in this information, absorbing the implications for their future battles.
"Lastly," Master Wu added, "you will all convene in Washington, D.C., soon. Although you may not realize it yet, this meeting will bring you closer together than ever before. The challenges you will face will test your bonds and your resolve."
The heroes exchanged looks of determination, ready to face whatever lay ahead.
Master Wu concluded, "I am the Protector of the Lumisprites. My role is to guide and assist you as you adapt to these new changes and continue your fight for peace."
The heroes nodded in acknowledgment, understanding the gravity of their new responsibilities. As the meeting concluded, they each felt a renewed sense of purpose, ready to embrace their new roles and face the upcoming challenges with the strength and unity they had cultivated.
Master Wu leaned back in his chair, the weight of his words hanging heavily in the air as Funneh Kalana, Chloe Stemdragon, Chloé Strom, and René Dupré absorbed the gravity of his revelations. The apartment was dimly lit, casting long shadows as Master Wu prepared to deliver crucial information.
"Now that you understand the role of crisis energy," Master Wu began, "it's time to discuss what comes next." He looked at each hero in turn. "The UBLs—HappyGoLucky, Phoenixa, and Lynxie—have been transferred to new entities. These entities are known as LumiSprites, and their counterparts are called Envoyants."(yes he goes though this yap again), (low attention spand.)
The heroes exchanged curious glances. Master Wu continued, "LumiSprites are similar to the Miraculoù in the legends. Each one represents a mythical beast, and they come with designs inspired by those beasts. The Envoyants, on the other hand, summon and manage the LumiSprites' power. They will have designs reflecting their associated LumiSprites."
Master Wu then addressed Funneh Kalana. "Funneh, your previous UBL was HappyGoLucky, representing joy and positivity. Your new LumiSprite is Aqualis, a graceful, water-themed entity with a design featuring flowing, aquatic forms and shimmering scales. Accompanying Aqualis is the Envoyant named Aquan. Aquan is a small, elegant wearable accessory, like a bracelet, which channels Aqualis's power, enhancing your water-based abilities."
Next, he turned to Chloe Stemdragon. "Chloe, your former UBL was Phoenixa, the fire phoenix. Your new LumiSprite is Ignis, a majestic phoenix with feathers that shimmer like molten gold and flames that dance around its form. Accompanying Ignis is the Envoyant named Pyros. Pyros is a delicate, flame-themed accessory, such as a pendant, that channels Ignis's power and supports your fire abilities."
Master Wu then addressed Chloé Strom. "Chloé, your previous UBL was Celestia. Your new LumiSprite is Draconis, embodying the strength and mystique of dragons. Draconis's design features scales that shimmer like stars and wings that radiate with celestial light. Accompanying Draconis is the Envoyant named Seraphius. Seraphius is a star-themed accessory, like a ring or brooch, that enhances Draconis's dragon abilities and supports you in battle."
Finally, Master Wu addressed René Dupré. "René, your previous UBL was Lynxie. Your new LumiSprite is Umbra, representing shadows and protection, with a design featuring dark, shifting forms and a cloak-like appearance. Accompanying Umbra is the Envoyant named Noctis. Noctis is a shadow-themed accessory, such as a cuff or necklace, that amplifies Umbra's powers and aids you in your shadow-based abilities."
Master Wu's expression grew more serious. "Without the UBLs, you will be significantly weaker. The LumiSprites and their Envoyants have limited power compared to the UBLs, and you won't be able to access your previous ultimate forms. However, this transition also offers a chance to develop new strengths and adapt to new challenges."
He took a deep breath before concluding, "You will all meet in Washington, D.C., soon. Though you may not realize it now, your paths will converge in ways you cannot yet understand. I am the Protector of the LumiSprites and their Envoyants, and I will guide you as you adapt to this new reality."
As Master Wu's words settled in, the heroes began to comprehend the magnitude of their new roles and the changes that lay ahead. Despite the daunting prospect of diminished powers, they were determined to face the future with resilience and unity.
