## Dialogue

 The Collector: …
 The Collector: --Ah, Summoner. Apologies for my being lost in thought. Some… troubling developments have occurred recently in the Battlerealm, and I am pondering them.
 The Collector: In fact… hmm… yes, you may be able to help me with this. It should be a suitable task for someone of your capabilities. Come with me.
 The Collector: While we were distracted with Ant-Man's little caper through the Battlerealm, an intruder forced his way in.
 The Collector: Presumably you know of him: Magneto, the Master of Magnetism. Leader of the Brotherhood of Mutants, and an Omega-class mutant himself. Few are powerful enough to simply force their way into the Battlerealm. He is one of those few.
 The Collector: But, I have an ally to assist you in apprehending him. Likely one of the few who could match his power. To find him, I had to break the bonds of reality itself and reach deep into an alternate timeline. Please, say hello to… Magneto.
 Magneto (House of X): Greetings, Summoner. I can explain in detail later; we have a… well, you-know-who, to catch. Follow me.

- Transmission #1 - Upon starting the Quest

 Magneto (House of X): It is as Taneleer Tivan says. I am from an alternate universe.
 Magneto (House of X): The multiverse is a curious thing, Summoner. Small changes branch infinite possibilities, infinite worlds; similar, but separate.
 Magneto (House of X): In many timelines, Magneto is a dangerous and cunning leader of mutants who sees humans as weak, infantile creatures, and mutants as humanity's next step in evolution.
 Magneto (House of X): But in some realities, he is more… tempered. Prone to thought, rather than action. He perceives his power as, perhaps, a responsibility to protect those weaker than he.
 Magneto (House of X): I only hope we can teach THIS version of myself some of that understanding.

- Transmission #2

 Magneto (House of X): You seem to be as capable as the Collector implied, Summoner. You are a natural leader for your Champions.
 Magneto (House of X): I feel you will need these skills in the time ahead--not only in dealing with my alternate self, but in what may come.
 Magneto (House of X): We will need to be careful in the areas ahead. I have been told that he has leveraged abandoned Champion crystals left behind by Ultron and used his powers to free them.
 Magneto (House of X): As such, I ask that I test your capabilities. The Collector trusts your skills, and I have seen some potential… though I desire first-hand knowledge!
 Magneto (House of X): Have at you!
