## Opening Narration

* *[The spoiler appears.]*
* **Announcer (Peter Musñgi)**: Warning! This miniseries contains sporadic light-to-moderate strong themes having a mixture of children’s characters and characters for older audiences in this crossover as well as moderated violence, occasional swearing, and few shots of bleeding. We DO NOT mean to, and I repeat, we DON'T mean to offend their fans out there, just to get a shot on this in the name of fairness to our viewers and production crews alike. Parental guidance has been encouraged.
* *[The spoiler ends and shows the opening.]*
* **Narrator (Stephen Fry)**: Once upon a time, in the beginning, there was the Publicverse, a dimension where fictional characters from different dimensions coexist side by side. In peace and harmony almost all the time, sometimes... well, there's war. Created by the Corporal itself, the immortal interdimensional god worshipped by various cultures, it protected the sensitive peace that is so fragile that there may be a war soon.
* *[The camera pans to the mountains until it sees Pinky Pinkerton and her evil forces, just like how it shows the Fire Nation soldiers in the opening sequence of* Avatar: The Last Airbender*.]*
* **Narrator (Stephen Fry)**: For the Corporal used to tell me stories about the old days: a time of peace when the Defenders kept balance in this world while fighting off a dark mist known as the "*Mors Corrumpi*." But... the storm of war came back again! And because of that, all that changed when Pinky's evil imperial forces attacked.
* *[The soldiers fire their guns at the camera, transitioning into the Original Defenders fighting a losing battle.]*
* **Narrator (Stephen Fry)**: As prophesied, only these Defenders can save the Publicverse from such chaos they had created in their lust of power and greed. Only they can stop those ruthless villains. But when this dimension needed them the most... they retreated and vanished without a trace.
* *[Fade to the wartorn Qyah being burnt because of the war.]*
* **Narrator (Stephen Fry)**: Years have passed, and the Pinkalicious forces of evil are nearing victory in this horrid war.
* *[Fade to a fleet of ships in the middle of the icy waters.]*
* **Narrator (Stephen Fry)**: Two months ago, our hero, Molly Shahnyaa Mabray, a 10-year-old girl from Qyah, was found by a bunch of heroes who journeyed around the Publicverse to find someone who is prophesied to be... their saviour. While the rest? Well, journeyed to the real life and other dimensions to help fight against Pinkerton's evil armies, leaving the rest to do what they must while protecting their homes.
* *[Fade to a group of desperate villagers of Qyah.]*
* **Narrator (Stephen Fry)**: Some people believe that the Publicverse would fall under Pinkie Pinkerton's malevolent hand with her intent to invade all other dimensions, especially ours...
* *[Fade to a closeup of both Trini Mumford and Tooey Ookami, both saddened.]*
* **Narrator (Stephen Fry)**: But I haven't lost hope.
* *[Fade back to the burning Qyah in a different shot.]*
* **Narrator (Stephen Fry)**: I always believe that Molly can save the Publicverse using all her bravery at the test of time.

* *[Skye’s rotors tilt and she flies away. Pan down to Qyah]*
* **Narrator (Stephen Fry)**: So while Skye is off to search for Pinkerton, let’s go check with Molly and her family at the Denali Trading Post
