   Summary

   ☆ 1489; Michael "The Brave" Wheeler, aka the Paladin, the Knight, & William "The Wise" Byers, aka the Cleric, the Sorcerer, fail in battle with the Lord Vecna. The Sorcerer attempts to freeze time with the remainder of light magic of his soul, while sending the Paladin to the future to save his life.

   ☆ 1989; Mike Wheeler hosts a goofy campaigne as a final goodbye to Hawkins two weeks after graduation, in celebration for the freedom once the Party abandons the traumatizing grounds after the relentless battle with Vecna. Will Byers was finally free from it all, living so peacefully with his friends, full of love & acceptance- aside from his aching love for his best friend.

   ☆ Little did the group of six know, a fairytale Paladin was soon to appear out of thin air, desperate to return to his Cleric.
