Daemon was writing a note and had a safe put down.

"Daemon, what are you diing?" Tsunami asked Daemon.

"I'm putting a note for Dawn, the engineer." Daemon told her, then put the note in the safe.

Terraria, in a castle in the sky

"Dawn, what are you doing?" Malik, the gunsmith, asked.

"I am going into Daemon's safe. he told me that if he is ever gone for too long, which he said is three days, I was to look into his safe and retrieve a note addressed to me." Dawn said,, then reached in and grabbed the note that just materialized. "That's convenient."

She reached in and read the note's top line aloud: "'Read to all allies'... To the meeting hall!"

After gathering everybody, she began to read the note

"Dearest allies,
You have been of great assistance to me and our group for many a moon, and wish to thank you for your assistance.

However, I am in a different universe filled with talking ponies. I will be unable to protect you from attack in the following time until we find a return.

Arm yourselves. A blood moon comes, I can sense it. (what do you think these red eyes are for? messing with camera people? No, I am the first person born on a blood moon in a thousand years!) The armory will contain all of the armor and weapons and ammo you will need to survive.

Dawn, set uo turrets with the arrow traps and a one second timer. Merlin, give them spell tomes, I have extra cursed flames and souls to make the cursed flames spell books. If you all want, I also have a statue of a slime to create some practice before the blood moon arrives, just attach a pressure plate to some wiring and the statue, a blue slime should appear every time the plate is pressed.

Good luck, I wish for you all to survive the nights to come until we find a way back or a way to bring you here.

May the odds be ever in your favor,

Daemon

P.S. On the progress of finding ways to get either of us to eachother, we assume whatever teleports you guys to our castle will work between universes, so assigning you guys rooms here should work, but I would prefer the Dryad and Guide stay to help adventurers that decide to take up our mantle. They will need it."

Everybody went silent at this. Urist the demolitionist was the one to break the silence.

"Oy! Fancy clothes man! You can turn back into Skeletron to protect us!"

"No, I had the curse that does that removed when Daemon utterly destroyed me. Even if I could, no! Those things can do much more damage to the heroes than Skeletron could ever do." The Old Man said.

"Well, Let's get to business!" Malik said, I"I have shotguns, shark guns, black market parts to upgrade the shark into a megashark, crappy little pistol, and ammo!"

"I will reforge your weapons until I get the best I can." The Goblin Tinkerer tokd the group.

"There must be something big coming if he wants us to prepare so much... Do you guys really want to go through with this? or should we just tell him to try to bring us there?" The Nurse said to the group.

They had no idea which to choose.
