Journey to the west

== Prelude ==
After the plague of shadows the Lads became the heroes of the remnants of the empire of Koruthar. They gather most of the survivors in Meirin and start building a government with themselves at the center, save for Po'Tu Tolgaz who went back to the sea after a couple more fallouts with Laedo and Koltar and Zalfir who felt like he had to do something back home.
Over the course of 10 years the Lads built a booming country which was poised to become the dominant force of the continent... One of the survivors, Talio Heinrik had gained The Lads respect and favor during Questionable Begginings, he was easily accepted into the group. Gareth Finnegan, a man who was after Talio showed up one day and interrupted a Lad bean feast threatening to beat up Talio. The situation evolved in a manner that confirmed his threat (he did beat Talio's ass) but Talio managed to make amends. Koltar then challenged Gareth to a duel, which Koltar won. The three ate beans with the rest of the crew and bonded over this experience. This incident would mark the start of Gareth's involvement in Ladian affairs. He would soon after be fully integrated and a member of the Lads.
== The Lads Get Summoned ==
The Lads are notified by an official hailing the Hanseatyn Kingdom from across the ocean. The official informed them that the Pope required their assistance to perform a holy task. The first step of which involved a journey to the west to talk in person to the Pope.
== The trip ==
The Lads departed by boat on Sun's Height of 535HE. On their way, they encountered a man studying a kraken in the middle of a storm, this encounter had no effect on them, and they didn't talk that much to the man anyway, but it was noteworthy, Talio though it was neat. By the time The Lads arrived at the Pope, a full year had passed. It was 536 HE Sun's Height.
== The visit to the Pope ==
The Lads were gracefully received by the Holy Sea. The capital of the kingdom impressed them very much. After the warm reception, the Pope explained that he was receiving signs from god that indicated something was preventing the Gods influence to the countries in the south and some bad activies in the northernmost area as well. His clerics had started getting nightmares and bad premonitions. He was worried. The Lads took it by face value and accepted the first deal he made. They knew a big break here would spread their name across the old continent, and the Pope offered to perform crusades to retake the Apostolic Sea and let the Lads rule them. The Lads parted with an artifact from the Pope they should use wisely to contact higher beings and went on happily towards the Heavenly Kingdom of Man.
== The weirdest member joins, and yes I'm counting with Zalfir ==
When entering the boat, the Lads notice a creature by the name of Sanekoryous. Sane mentioned an unbalance in nature and explained he also wanted to go see what was going on. Having a common goal, the Lads allowed this creature to travel with them. Sanekoryous would later become a valuable member of the Lads.
== Heavenly Kingdom of Man arc ==
With Laedo's ranger abilities, the Lads manage to travel to a suspicious village undetected. The people in the village seemed to behave unnaturally and ominously. So the Lads decided to do some investigation by force and broke into their church situated in the center of the village. Inside they discover catacombs where certain rituals were performed, additionally frog like creatures named slads engaged in battle for the church was their hideout where they protected an orb which seemed to be the cause of the divine disturbance that the Pope had mentioned. After being victorious The Lads realize that the inhabitants were becoming slads themselves and tactically circle the city with fire, erasing the village and its people from the map ruthlessly.
After the village had been dealt with the Lads proceed into the Kingdom until they arrive at a large city's gates, confused on whether they should come back or not they decide to send Sane in bird form and investigate the rulers of that city. Sane gets hurt, and the Lads are revealed, prompting a chase from the notorious Great Kali, a guard of the prince, who fought the Lads until his last breath. After the fight, the Lads realized that their work is actually by using the artifact the Pope had given them to talk to an angel before they continued their path of unwarranted bloodshed. The Lads then headed back to Hanseatyn.
As the Lads returned they started noticing that a lot of people had been affected by the slads, they hypothesized it could be something in the water and started paying attention to rivers. Near a river, they meet an inquisitor, gathering fish, who explained that the fish were to be taken to the pope to be trialed. The Lads took note and headed on towards the Hanseatyn Kingdom. Koltar and Talio then hypothesized that the migration patterns of the fish should lead to the source. The fish came from the northernmost lands of the old continent. They take note and head to the Pope.
== The Pope again ==
Upon arrival, The Lads are thrown a party of immense extravagance and their name are spread as heroes of the people. In continuation of their investigation, they reported their findings to the pope. Simultaneously, the fish trial occurred and revealed a magical disease in the fish. By tracking the migration patterns of said fish's species, The Lads were able to pinpoint that the source was somewhere in the north. The next step step was obvious. The Lads were to head north. To speed up the process, they used the church's teleported the capital of Dragonfell and were accompanied. 
== Drangonfell fell ==
The Lads arrived safely though the church's teleported. Their first order of business was to question the population, no valuable information was obtained but they drew the enemies eyes twards them. When dining at a tavern, the Lads got jumped by a vague number of beings. In the insuing figth they manage to kill several of them and escape in a wagon. 
During the fight Laedo had set fire to the tavern. During the escape he set fire to several builds to try to not get blamed. The city was built like a hive with lots of closed corners. The result of these facts was a devastating fire that burned half the city and killed over a million people. This feat would later count for Laedo's ascension into the fire domain.
== The Frozen Wastes arc ==
The Lads, uninformed of the fact they had killed a million people. Arrived at the frozen wastes after a long travel by wagon. There, Divination woman(woman who has been in this journey since the beggining) guides them to a group of dwarves who were being atacked by a group of people in bronze masks. The Lads save them and gain their favor, (these dwarves would later relocate to Lad Town and kickstart a new age of science). Divination woman foresees that the bronze masks are key to their investigation. The Lads decide to head over to their base in the tallest mountain in the known world.
During their journey, another group of bronze masks manages to kill Koltar. Koltar sees death and Shrook stricking a deal together and is returned to life. After arriving to the mountain, they find Ikulan and his bronze masks. Assuming he is too powerfull the Lads decide to blow up the mountain. And they do. Laedo learns dig and everyone is safe in a hole he created during the closest TPK DnT history as seen. Ikhulan is defeated(not).
== Jakarta and Divination Horse ==
Following their massive victory, the Lads return to the Pope where he sends them to the depths of the Chamereon Republic. There they find druids trying to some evil shit. During this adventure they meet Jakarta - The worst PC character award winner and Sanekurious revives Divination girl, as a centaur. Thus starting the meme and later the legends of Sane.
== Pope Versus Heavenly Kingdom of Man ==
The Pope was once again pleased by the Lads. After all this, he announced their final mission. Participate on a strike in the Heavenly Kingdom of Mans' capital. The Lads were accompanied by an army of werewolves and were dropped in via teleportation. There, they wreacked havoc, making way to the throne room thanks to Koltars' transformations. Inside the throne room they faced Xun Xue, Shen Lemu and Ur-Ai. Xun Xuw got instantly defeated by the 1st ever usage of "Better Dig". Shen Lemu got attacked by everyone and, when defeated, released Ur-Ai, The Old Man himself who, unexpectedly lost to the Lads in a very drawn out fight with multiple downs. The Lads had no idea, but they had defeated a someone who already at God Tier.
== Ikhulan was not dead and he attacks the pope ==
The Lads return after a big victory and the Pope pleges to fulfill his promise but Ikhulan shows up with a mech and starts destroying everything with it hoping to ascend himself. The Lads stop him to attain God Tier powers. This was the last serious fight the Lads would undertake before the 3rd War in Heaven for the next years. From here on out, their powers would predetermine the outcome of everything, including the entirety of Season 3 and Project Vulcans' actions and consequences.
