College is coming, and me completing the requirements were a damn hassle, and left me so busy and tired. I'm sorry for the long wait, but here it is, peeps. Be safe, everyone. Enjoy! Long chapter as penance for my absence.

DINING HALL
Citadel of Light
After that speech, they decided to do a little get-to-knowing session. Both parties found it beneficial and agreeable, as it served to lessen suspicions of each other. They were led to the dining hall usually reserved for dinner meetings with important political figures. While waiting for the evening course, the conversation started. On the long dining table, one side had the Avengers and Capt. Stormguard, while the others had the Demacian noble representatives. On one end was King Jarvan III, while the other had Prince Jarvan IV.
"When you explained what these Infinity Stones were, how did you come to the conclusion that the rainbow that just occurred days prior was caused by these?"
"At first, we thought of the color schemes. When Capt. Stormguard described it, Rocket here suddenly thought of the stones since we were about to go on a mission back home to visit alternate timelines since we, at first, thought that all original six stones were destroyed. We were about to proceed, but an old enemy of ours arrived at the scene and messed with the process. When we entered the Quantum Realm, we thought we would be trapped there forever. Until, something happened to us. We didn't know what was happening, then suddenly we landed in your world. Runeterra, am I right?"
"This just keeps getting better and better..." Eric chuckled lightly
"Hold on, what do you mean by 'destroyed'? What you said earlier, was that your mission was to retrieve the stones to undo the massive damage it did to your universe. How massive is that damage?"
A short pause came, but remembering that coming clean may be the best, they all mentally agreed.
"You see, the stones by themselves are powerful. But if brought together, the power combined can only be rivalled by other powerful beings such as deities. Yet, to safely harness all six, you need a vessel. The only known vessel capable for that task came to be known as the Infinity Gauntlet. One such person that wielded it was named Thanos, The Mad Titan. He was able to collect them all. With one snap of his fingers, half of all life in our universe was eradicated. Including some of our closest friends and family."
Murmurs were heard, and never have they heard of or experienced such a catastrophic event. To face against a being comparable to a god was no small feat at all.
"Young lady, to answer the 'destroyed' part of your question, days after the Snap, Thanos said that he destroyed all the stones by turning their powers against themselves. I suspect that even he does not know that they still exist." Thor said to Lux
"This Thanos, where is he now?"
"He's dead. We killed him five years ago."
"So let me get this straight. You killed this Thanos five years before you came here. You said you were about to visit alternate timelines for your mission. For what, exactly? Now, this Quantum Realm, what is it?"
"We wanted to get an alternate set of Infinity Stones from a list of different years when we encountered them. And yes, five years after his death, we discovered that the Quantum Realm can be used to travel through time. That gave us a renewed sense of hope of bringing back everyone killed by the Snap. The Quantum Realm part, I'll hand it to Scott here to explain, since he has had a vast experience of traversing within it. Scott."
