Nova walked through the barrier surrounding Starlight Mansion, the headquarters for Chimera Blade to this day. Pressing a finger to a leaf it began to glow blue before the hedge maze disappeared giving him a minute to run through and make it to the doors. Slowly opening them he looked around knowing he wouldn't find anyone but hoping.
This was right after the battle against Rixheia, right after he had to save all of the people he loved, right after he teleported through time and found himself without being able to communicate or go to the Celestial Realm getting a splitting migraine every time he tried.
He wandered through the mansion for a little while reminiscing from when he left on his journey and Lyss gave him a bandolier of potions to planning his wedding with Rodney that never got to happen. He found himself standing before the portal atop the mansion and trying to walk through feeling as his skin was scorched against the portal's light.
He couldn't even get to the Celestial Realm through the portal and now for the next twenty years he was forced to watch as Rixheia took over the world as he grew small bases of rebel groups but most of them didn't stick around long and were quickly turned into work camps by Rixheia. The only place that remained was the original heroes base when they went against the original royals of Elkmire.
During the time he did make jumps through time to help in the fights against old villains trying to make a difference to his present timeline but nothing seemed to help. All it did was lengthen the time until he could see his loved ones again. So he stopped and he started planning an all out assault on Rixheia that would bring the goddess to her knees.
He hid in Emera until they heard voices talking about a trap set within the forest by himself until out stumbled Astrid and Anastasia. The new heroes and the girls that would reunite him with his loved ones. The new heroes and the girls that would turn the tide in their war.
