Merlin's Magical Minute

Alignment Mission

You find a rough cut of an episode of the popular children's show involving magic and puppets, Merlin's Magical Menagerie. This episode features a cameo of Desdemona, the former demon-binder now turned 'hero'. This rough cut doesn't appear to be edited yet, so it still contains all the errors that happen during filming:

Crying Child: [crying] It's going to hurt me. - Desdemona: [hugging the child] No, sweetheart, I've made it go away. It can't hurt you. - Crying Child: Thank you, Ms. Desdemona. I see what you mean that summoning demons is no joke! - Desdemona - [pointing at the other children] And safety is no laughing matter. [children wave at the camera, cut to credits]

Desdemona is now doing children's public service announcements? The same woman who directed the Viscount of Ruination to destroy an orphanage just to spite the heroes of Paragon City? She's convinced your peers that she's turned a new leaf, and now she's working on the kids? Unfortunately for her, in your hands is the proof she's evil. Well, after you're done editing the tape, that is.

Villain: 'Correct' the episode to show what you know is true

You can't even count how many times you've responded to outbreaks of demonic entities, let alone how many times Desdemona was behind them. It's one thing to convince guillible heroes that she's no longer a threat, but it's another to brainwash small children. However, if you were to edit this tape so that it shows what you really know was going on in Desdemona's mind... then it would be really hard for her to keep tricking people into believing what she wants them to believe. You'll be the one controlling the truth, not her.

  • Edit the tape of the children's show

The best place to take care of this would be the Channel Eight broadcasting affiliates here in the Rogue Isles. You can edit the tape from there, then send it across their network - beaming it into everyone's home so that all the kiddies... And parents can see what she 'really' is.

Unnecessary Solicitation

You don't want to wait on getting this video edited. The best place to take care of this would be the Channel Eight studios, who broadcast here in the Rogue Isles to avoid taxes. You can edit the tape from there, then send it across their network - beaming it into everyone's home so that all the kiddies... And parents can see what she 'really' is.
