The group travels to Copenhagen. There, they smash a drug/potion distribution
center and learn that Don Pyrus is holding the Queen of Denmark and her
children prisoner. They quickly travel to the estate where the children are
and free them, then return and free the Queen from the Amalienborg. They
attack Don Pyrus, fighting their way through walls of giants and faerie. They
eventually kill Pyrus and then destroy an automaton that was posing as Pyrus'
accountant.
The inhabitants of Copenhagen turn against the group, apparently due to a
Mind Control Satellite.

The group learns that Mobius has put 5 Orbital Mind Control Pyramids in place,
and is controlling the entire world. They travel by blimp to Tanzania,
heading for his Mt. Kilimanjaro launch facility.
-

-
Shot down near Mt. Kilimanjaro, the group finds a mysterious cave, containing
a 150 foot tall mummy, who reveals that he is Keth-Amon...Mobius' father
from when he first became Pharoah. It is revealed that LeRoy is the
reincarnation of Keth-Emet...eldest son of Keth-Amon, and his rightful heir,
who was killed by Sutekh (Mobius), when he seized the throne. Keth-Amon
heads north to seek revenge on Mobius.
The group makes it to the launch facility, where they rescue Dr. Liebermann
and seize a rocket, launching for the primary OMCP. There, Fujiwara
fights a duel with Wu Han as Japanese shuttles fire missiles at the pyramid.
-

-
Finally, the OMCP is destroyed, and the group flees in an escape pod, which
takes them to a spot in North Africa where Mobius has captured Keth-Amon and
has prepared the VoidSifter. Mobius is preparing to make his play to become
TORG. The group frees Keth-Amon from the control, and Keth-Amon then knocks
Mobius and himself into the Void. Illiya then accidentally causes the
Eternity Furnace to burn out of control, destroying most of the Sahara.
Sparks is ejected from the Void in the aftermath of this, finding himself
alone on a vast glassy plain.
-
9/9/95
-
The group holds a massive press conference to try and explain what happened
in the Sahara. LeRoy issues a call for the formation of an international
regulatory agency to watch over weird science. The proposed name is
CROWS: Commission for the Regulation Of Weird Science.
Sparks, making his way out of the glass desert sees a Nile plane.
-
9/10/95
-
The group declares a Teotihuacan-wide holiday/party, to celebrate the
destruction of the Orbital Mind Control Pyramids and to bring morale back
up.
-
9/11/95
-
The group travels to Japan, to follow up on some disturbing hints about the
Emperor. Arriving at the temple of the Sons Of The Wind, they find it under
attack by a construction crew, and beat them off. They learn that the
Emperor recently revoked their land grant and sold the property. Greatly
disturbed, they travel to Matsuyama, where they believe the Emperor to be
held.
In Matsuyama, they discover a vast gospog processing plant, of both the
traditional type and a new, reverse engineered sort. They plan an assault,
drawing heavily on their Shiki, Koshi, and Rauru Block allies.
-
9/12/95
-
The group assaults the plant. The old-type gospog are destroyed, and the
new ones are convinced to follow LeRoy, who states that he is their Pharoah.
Loading up on the Matsuyama Maru, the gospog and a medical crew are hauled
away to Peru, to seek medical attention from the Space Gods.
The group then attacks Matsuyama-jo. To prevent Osato from killing the
Emperor, Fujiwara challenges him to a martial arts duel. Finally, after both
of them have become completely exhausted, Fujiwara wins. In order to prevent
a gospog from self-destructing and killing the Emperor, a mortally-wounded
Illiya sacrifices her own life.
The Emperor proceeds to disown Naruhito, the Crown Prince, who had cooperated
with the Kanawa corporation and turned against Japan. Fujiwara, who had
proven that he was of the Imperial blood by wielding Kusanagi, is formally
adopted into the Imperial House, and named new Crown Prince.
Sparks meanwhile makes his way out of the glass desert and collapses.
-
9/13/95
-
With help from Abe Hideki, a special videotape is played on television stations
across the country (and quickly sent elsewhere in the world). This videotape
includes the official announcement of Naruhito's disowning and Fujiwara's
adoption, and reveals the Kanawa Corporation for the invaders they are. Enough
supporting evidence is provided to generally clinch the case, forcing the
Kanawa Corporation to admit their extra-cosm status and fall back on claiming
good intentions.
Naruhito commits seppuku, possibly with some help.
Sparks comes across a suspicious group heading for the glass desert: a train
carrying Jack, Queen, and a bunch of Shocktroopers. He
sneaks in among them.

some excavating is done.
-
9/15/95
-
The group sneaks into Houston, acquiring an alligator along the way.
They infiltrate the Red Asp's headquarters. Though The Chameleon is captured,
he escapes with the help of Ruth. They later learn that while some of
the information they recovered was valid, the most important piece was fake.
Sparks, tagging along still, is brought back out into the desert.
-
9/17/95
-
The group returns to Houston, breaking into the Red Asp's headquarters.
They discover that Ruth and the Asp are secretly one and the same, but she
escapes. LeRoy rescues a reporter named Sarah Kellerman.
Sparks takes charge, taking command of the locomotive and guiding it towards
the coast. When discovered, a fight breaks out. The locomotive is sent
into the sea while the rest of the train is wrecked. Sparks is forced to
flee by the approach of the Queen Mary.
-
9/18/95
-
In the aftermath of the Asp's escape, LeRoy is able to use his pharoanic (?)
authority to cause the garrison of Houston to agree to a conditional surrender.
Most of the force is allowed to return to the Nile, though some insist on
following FGC back to Teotihuacan, bringing along part of their air force.
Sparks sneaks on board the Queen Mary and spies on the villains. An
attempt is made by someone on the sphere, and when Sparks tries to intervene,
he ends up unconscious.
-
9/19/95

Fujiwara goes back to Japan to meet with the Imperial family, and Natasha
goes home to visit relatives.

companions. When Jack catches up with them, they are forced to flee again.
