Alliance Offer (story)

Ina, after a day of hard work looking for new victims in the multi-universes that surround her in her huge and empty abyss, in which she has built an idyllic paradise full of vegetation where usually the time of day or the state of the weather is always changing depending on Ina's mood, being on this occasion the sky the color of an eternal sunset while Ina, tired of looking for new victims and without finding any interesting for today, spends her time drinking coffee, cookies and inquiring about the previous victim of her last victim, the one she has just found.

For some reason the state of that universe seems quite chaotic, damaged and collapsed from the perspective of Ina, who over time has been learning about the functioning of the different universes that surround her in that limbo in which she exists, universes that she, by cultural heritage of her grandmother Laia, a traveler between universes and in time, calls "realities". Nor has Ina been able to learn in such a broad way about those Realities since, as if they were galaxies or constellations, she only has access to the millions of Realities that are spontaneously generated in her local neighborhood but has not been able to transcend beyond local horizons to see different types of Realities that are generated outside her local neighborhood of universes. For terms of Ina's species (of which she knows very little, but knows somehow that she is not and was not just a normal human) she is still an inexperienced child learning to play with her environment while the species she comes from, the lineage Ina belongs to, the Ouichi, are ancestral dragon users of dark energy who in the past were conquerors of those universes and are currently only dedicated to wandering the abyss accumulating knowledge about the Realities for generations after being punished by the Mother goddess.

However, Ina has learned enough from her local environment of Realities to at least perceive the state of these, perceiving how Realities in a good state maintain a more consolidated and uniform energy composition, while the last Reality Ina entered was in full collision with another Reality, breaking the laws of physics of both universes and causing many abnormalities in both universes until eventually, perhaps, they mutate into a single Reality or from those same colliding universes multiple alternate Realities will emerge.

On the other hand, Ina's latest victim, Robin, who has been turned into a stone statue of a fountain in a prominent place in her garden, seems quite interesting to her, since usually most of the people who exist in one universe exist in parallel in other universes, while Robin only exists herself in that specific universe in collision, in that specific Reality.

Ina would not have investigated more about that victim, because she really usually prefers to look for new victims while constantly (she never has enough in her collection) while her process of investigation and learning about the realities she takes it easy, until a curious and eccentric being appears before her through a portal, introducing himself under the name of Absolute Tartarus, a "warrior of the Supreme Life Form and comes to Ina's chambers to congratulate her for having captured "a descendant of the ultracivilization, Robin, descendant of Yuzare" and not only that, but Tartarus is also grateful to Ina and, in exchange for his accidental help, offers Ina a deal, while Ina looks askance at this strange fellow: who is he to come between her and her break time and what's all this talk and terminology she doesn't know? Is it a byproduct of the clash between the two universes she witnessed when she abducted Robin?

This situation somehow encouraged and fed Ina's curiosity about Robin, but on the other hand, that a strange guy in golden armor, unknown to her, appeared uninvited in her quarters is something that did not please her and caused her a bit of disinterest and apathy. It is then when several alien allies of Tartarus appear in the place after crossing their respective portals, they are allies that Tartarus offers Ina to continue capturing some targets that Tartarus lists as interesting for Ina. After all, why waste time capturing the victims if they can just come to her garden and be turned in front of her eyes as if it were a live performance," says Tartarus.

Even though Ina is still not all that interested, she senses that each of those allies that Tartarus appeared there could have interesting abilities and, if at the end of the day, they also abduct interesting targets like that girl named Robin, maybe that alliance deal could result in something interesting, at least to experiment with. Those aliens are a totem-like humanoid golem with three faces representing anger, laughter and sadness (Jasyuline), another one of them a weird looking one with black and white stripes on his head, which was bigger than his body (Dada), and then there was a hellish alien (Hipporito) and a bat-like one (Bat). So, Ina, curious about what they could offer, accepted the offer, asking what they wanted in exchange for their services.

It is here where Tartarus talks about his true interest for which he would like Ina's help: there are several beings of extraordinary abilities that prevent Tartarus from continuing with his conquest of the universe that Tartarus calls "The Kingdom", showing the targets that Tartarus would like Ina to capture through portals, which respond to the names of Corrin, Byleth, Alear and the Ultra sisters.

Anyway, Ina is bored by the details, but since it sounds interesting to capture interesting targets and add them to her collection, she accepts the proposal, so from then on those four allies of Tartarus will be under Ina's orders.

Before Tartarus withdraws and leaves Ina's new allies with her, Tartarus considers that he could give Ina more encouragement and motivation by showing the vast and interesting powers of some of his other allies (to encourage and motivate Ina to discover the abilities of her new allies) when Diavolo, another ally of Tartarus, appears, who comes out of a new portal, and takes a deep breath while throwing to the ground one of the previous targets that Tartarus mentioned to Ina, who answers to the name of Shez, who from the ground looks at Ina and Tartarus' allies while Tartarus orders Hipporito to show his ability to Ina using Shez as a guinea pig.

Shez, unable to resist or do anything to avoid her fate, sees a strange transparent tube emerge through a portal below her, surrounding her. Then an enormous amount of energy envelopes Shez with her clothing disintegrating and bronze begins to cover her whole body from head to toe, while she desperately hits the giant tube that surrounds her without being able to even crack that transparent wall.

After a few seconds the tube dissipates disintegrating and now reveals a Shez turned bronze statue with her clothes completely dissolved. All this provoked Ina's interest in seeing the abilities of Tartarus' allies and made her consider with greater interest Tartarus' offer.
