Beyond: Origins Season Three

**Beyond: Origins Season Three** is an all-original and alternative way of story-telling and character-introducing narratives that deviates from the path the first two seasons of Beyond: Origins took. Rather than telling the origins of characters and explaining stories in a conjoined arc, the third season tells the individual origin stories of characters through two parts: **Tales from Mount Ninja** and **Whispers of the Dark Order**. This is the third and final season entry to the Beyond: Origins prequel that takes place within the continuity of Earth-20 and Earth-21, with cameos from other realities being exclusively included. There are the protagonists and antagonists of these stories and whether they're a hero or villain depends upon the character's point of view.

## Official Descriptions

Faces of the past pop up in the final installment of the Origins anthology as both young Elemental Masters of Earth-21's newest generation and loyalists of the Dark Order get insight upon the hidden truths and facts of the past. In the wreckage of Mount Ninja, Xavier, Jayce and more of their friends discover a device that once belonged to the legendary Mind Elemental , Brooklyn Tomasu, and decide to see what new information they can learn from it.

Elsewhere, the Dark Order looks into their archives to reflect upon the hardships of those that were destined to be great and nearly reached success, just to be swallowed in the Cycle of Chaos created by the Oni, First Spinjitzu Master and Samara Yokotawaru.

With both sides of the future feud looking into the past and its figures, new interpretations of stories that were hinted at within the Original Beyond Trilogy and Defenders Tetralogy will be presented in unique, point-of-views from whatever hero or villain is chosen to be surveyed and looked upon.
