Darkspade has done the unthinkable... Hra'Spyder was finally laid to rest... the question then is, where did Hra'...err Red Spyder go off to? Did that matter?The Darkspade was declared the winner- initially the match was for the Absolute Championship... however... the MWE Undisputed title was an addition. Cadmus met with Darkspade- staring up at him in the center of the ring.... the odd child asked for Darkspade to kneel and listen to him intensively...
Cadmus: Darkspade. You did it. You stopped the evil Hra'Spyder.... but.... you cannot hold onto those titles here, for they do not belong. [ Darkspade frowns in confusion]
"Kid. You're not making ANY sense...." [pats the title belts] "... they belong, on my two shoulders that is..."

Cadmus: I don't have much time left in this reality, as the doors to the ethereal realm are closing and my projection is fading... But once I do fade, so will those titles on your shoulders- they will return to wherever they exist in this new reality... and unfortunately... your win will not be counted here. It is because you've changed your timeline. If you don't understand- look around you- look at how the atmosphere in this stadium has darkness encroachment upon it... It's not because the seats are vacant- you're transitioning into an altered reality. It means, the MWE title you possess is different than the one we are used to- in fact, look at the logo... is that the SAME logo? Look upon the Absolute Title... is that the SAME design?
Darkspade could feel the titles lifting off of his shoulders.... he tried to desperately hold on to them- but as the darkness continued to engulf all- he understood- that Cadmus was right.... oddly, Darkspade did not appear to be angered.
"Damn. Just when it was within my grasp- the TOP champion no doubt... no DOUBLE champ!!! Of course it would happen to me.... but those titles mattered not in comparison to the bigger picture- WE stopped Hra'Spyder from destroying this world... even if I were to hold the titles, what champion would I be representing? A void world? So. Cadmus. I must say, thank you.... thank you."
Cadmus could only nod as the connection to this world was severing.... but before he disappeared, Cadmus could muster a few disjointed last words to Darkspade.... perhaps... a ward or warning?

Cadmus: See... k... Or... c.....le. Spa... de... RE.MEM.B....
And with that last phoneme uttered, Cadmus and everything around Darkspade was absorbed into the darkness.... and as if one is sedated and brought back to consciousness... The Darkspade wakes up back in his own bed at the Death Family manor... he instantly sits up, complete with a headache... which prompts a maid to enter his room in amazement and excitement... Darkspade just stared at her blankly, confused...
Maid: M'Lord.... you're finally awake... you've been asleep for days....
... Darkspade was silent for a few minutes- and then reponds, "I... I remember...." [the mad looks at him oddly] "... yes. I remember the match... I remember Cadmus.... I just don't know how I got here and what time... day... year this is.... "
The maid smiled, understanding that her lord was out of it for days and must be suffering from delusions... She responds by saying, "Why. M'Lord, it's December, the year is 2022.... You were taken here by your daughter, Charon, she said you suffered a great fall from a horse, anything else?"
Perplexed. That is NOT what happened... he then asks a weird request... "Answer me this: Am I a Creature Wrestler from the Creature Wrestling organization?"
The maid responded, "Um. Sir. You retired from being a creature wrestler ten years ago after Cravus defeated you in a career match.... and that was in the CWE... I suppose CreatureWrestling- sure, but you haven't wrestled in over a decade...."
That was not the fate written for Darkspade.
Or so it seemed.
Cravus… a name whispered, not remembered. A shadow where a truth should be.
Had the thread of time been severed when Hra’Spyder claimed the mantle of Hra’gad in an age long buried?
Was that the moment the past learned to lie?
The thought coils within Darkspade’s mind—unanswered, unyielding—
and as the question lingers,
the world exhales…
and the scene dissolves into darkness.
