Dimensional Descent

The more Leonel learned, the more confused he became. Weren't these Zones meant to be based on human mythology?

With this premise, one would assume that the most preeminent versions of King Arthur's tale would sit atop everything else.

Until now, things followed this logic. Whether it was Guinevere's betrayal, Modred's existence, the Knights of the Round Table, or even the mention of the sword in the stone, everything was as Leonel was familiar with.

However, if Leonel went a layer deeper than this, this world was still too different from what he was expecting. The existence of Lionus, the Magi, the existence of this world's magic system… None of these were things the tales of the past told of.

Leonel couldn't tell whether or not these were random things the universe was filling in as it pleased, or if there was another, deeper reason for this change.

Every time Leonel thought about such things, his mind would inevitably travel back to one idea… the future can influence the past…

If that was the case, could it be that these changes weren't random as Leonel thought? But maybe the result of changes to the legend future generations made?

When Leonel stepped on this path of thinking, he suddenly shuddered.. His mind had just landed on something that made his heart go cold…

The influence higher Dimensions had on lower Dimension was obscene. It might very well be possible that something a higher Dimensional being did on a whim would be more impactful than thousands of years worth of stories passed down in Leonel's world.

And, if that was true…

'… If someone from a higher Dimensional world wanted to change the legend of King Arthur… it would be exceptionally easy…'

This alone was a benign thought. But, when it was combined with Leonel's subconscious thoughts of several months, it felt as though a bolt of lightning had gone off in his mind. And this time, rather than being the illusory bolts of his Dreamscape, this was a true arc of lightning accompanied by rolling thunder.

To this point, leonel still had no idea what Joan's goal in the French Zone was. None of her actions made sense.

Back then, Leonel simply followed his heart and did his best to save as many people as he could. It was never more complicated than this for him.

But, if he thought about it… what would happen if Joan succeeded? Was Joan succeeding mutually exclusive with him completing the Zone?
