“There is a theory, about dimensional alteration, and it’s seemingly random effects on subsequent realities. These events in other realities as a result of dimensional distortion are known as ‘Dimensional Echoes’. Very few people understand the exact nature of these Echoes, and if they are significant or meaningful in any way. Some theories believe that they are simply random, dictated by waves of dimensional energy emitted when a reality is tampered with. Other’s believe that they are a reaction to an imbalance, and are very specific in nature. While these events are recognized by a very select few with knowledge of dimensional manipulation, no one knows for sure what causes these events to occur, or if they have any ongoing affects on the realities they take place in…”

Three weeks before the tournament…
The Man In Suede: You understand the implications, then?
Super Dark Samus stares down at one of the chaos emeralds.
Samus: They seem real to me, and the power they give me is very much so real, I can assure you of that.
The Man In Suede: Perhaps you misunderstood what I am saying. Those chaos emeralds are very much so real. However, they do not belong here, in this reality.
Samus: Continue…
The Man In Suede: You see, these emeralds are not originally from this reality. They are the result of what is known as a “Dimensional Echo”. They were carried over from an alternate reality.
Samus: What’s it matter? Power is power.
The Man In Suede: Yes, but what you need to take into consideration is that something that does not belong in this reality is very unstable. And it conflicts with the same matter from this reality.
Samus: You mean… there are chaos emeralds in this reality as well?
The Man In Suede: Exactly, and they are in turmoil because of the presence of the emeralds that you yourself hold.
Samus: But if I were to get the emeralds from THIS reality as well…
The Man In Suede: No, you can’t do that. Power from multiple realities is highly unstable, the results could possibly even lead to a tear in the very fabric of our space-time. It would essentially create a massive anomaly, one that would disrupt the flow of this dimension. Reality would attempt to fix itself, and it could easily create another Dimensional Echo that could do who knows what!
Samus: You under-estimate my ability to harvest this power…
The Man In Suede: No… you over-estimate your ability to control something that is far beyond the scope of your very being…

Two weeks before the tournament…
Samus: Horus, a man with the head of a falcon. Said to have the ability to alter the very fabric of dimensions. Could it be that it was his actions that have caused this supposed Dimensional Echo that brought these emeralds into my reality? Two sets of these emeralds is powerful, but to have access to all the dimensions… infinite sets of emeralds… the amount of power is endless! I must go to this death match, and I must find this God Horus. The power of the emeralds will only build inside me… and even Horus will be unable to contain me…

Opening Dimensional Echoes Database…
Dimensional Echo Record Entry, Date Unspecified:
“It has come to my attention that the Blood of Magus is not the only Dimensional Echo caused by that disturbance. It would appear that an unknown source has caused a massive spike in energy output in this Reality Stream. We will be dispatching an agent to track down this source of imbalance, and have it corrected. This Dimensional Echo will be removed. We will protect this reality at all costs…”
