As they regroup, Sarah glances down at the Tallus, looking puzzled for a few moments.

"Alright... the Tallus is trying to tell me the next step. We need to take the sword to 'our place of greatest strength', and 'bring back what was lost.'" She offers the soul sword towards Quinn. "I think I'm supposed to give this to you."

	Macendale had taken to wearing his human form in the presence of the little girl. "What was lost? What does that mean?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"I don't know... lives, souls, cities? I just get the feeling the sword is supposed to go to Quinn. Something about it being the ke... no, not the key, a key. Its supposed to unlock... something... in our place of greatest strength." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"I think the Tallus may have gone a little wonky." He shrugged. "The only place where I'm the strongest is England, but it said our and not me." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Gwenny's still keeping her distance from the sword, taking care of the kidlet. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"If not Britain, maybe the site of Avengers' Mansion?" Dory suggested. "Or perhaps the X-Men headquarters?" He looks to Macendale for confirmation or rebuttal. "I assume they were major forces for the resistance, at least for a while." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

"The X-Men were at ground-zero, so to speak, when the Goblin Queen ascended so.." he sees Illyanna and cuts himself off. He clears his throat a little. "The Avengers were the center of resistance for a time until the Queen chose to wipe them out directly.

Suddenly Macendale had an epihany. "Wait a minute..what was lost? That's got me thinking about something that bastard N'Astirh once said to me. Originally he was going to use human infants in a scarifice to pen a permanent door between Earth and Limbo, but he was stopped. I bet something else happened, I mean just how DID the Queen go from a powerful mutant to a demonic goddess?"

	"According to what I've been able to research in the worlds with Avengers' files - she was trying to sacrifice her infant son, Nathan Christopher, to Limbo for this kind of power... but was always stopped elsewhere." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Yeah... though the soul sword is still the mark and tool of the Sorceror Supreme of Limbo, and its ruler. She had the power to deal with the Avengers... but not Illyana. Maybe the sword still has some power over Limbo?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	The group would find themselves in London..or what was left of it. Big Ben was toppled, Parliament House was in shambles, and the Thames was dark and polluted. No sooner had they arrived then an alarm rang out and human soldiers came from the ruined buildings, guns drawn. "Welcome to jolly old England," Macendale said dryly. (Reply to this)(Thread)

	"Oi! Hands where we can see 'em," called a man appearing to be the leader. He stepped forward a second before he saw Quinn. "Bloody 'ell, Captain Britain? How? I saw those bastards tear you apart!?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Gargoyle? Big, green horse-faced bastard?" Macendale asked. "Yeah," the soldier confirmed. "You know 'im?" "You could say that." he turns back to the Exiles. "N'Astirh. I'd bet money on it." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)
