The Balance is out of alignment...
One year ago, the Shadow Queen held a tournament, the event of the year. The hidden, true purpose of the tournament was to draw forth the blood descendents of her original jailors, for if she could defeat them, she would be freed from her imprisonment...
But the plan backfired. The Shadow Queen faced down her blood foes... and fell in battle against them.
And with her defeat, the world was purged of a massive source of Darkness.
This was not good for the world at large...
Darkness is rising...
A year has passed since the Shadow Queen's defeat. In that time, the world has settled back into some sort of order.
But peace is just an illusion in the moments between catastrophes.
The city of St. Paul is unaware of it, but within it grows a new darkness, one that seeks to fill the void left by the fall of the Shadow Queen.
Darkness being what it is, its harbingers don't merely wish to fill the void... they seek to overflow it.
The Light calls forth its champion...
While all eyes were on the Three Heroes, however, someone else was at the Monster Island Tournament. His name was Gerald Laxina, and he did well for a time - until his defeat.
Now a young man of 20, Gerald has found a quiet life in Maine. It is the sort of life he has sought since childhood.
It seems only natural that the darkness would take it from him. Destiny abhors a vacuum.
One year after the Monster Island Tournament, Gerald is called to St. Paul by a vision... that and the dismantling of the quiet existence he's used to.
Once in St. Paul, Gerald must correct the Balance between Light, Darkness, Dreams and Shadow. In doing so, he is forced to battle against a power of Darkness that by its definition makes the Shadow Queen pale in comparision.
But Gerald is not alone. He is aided by a new-found friend, the artist and duelist Chad Montmelier. Other allies, some great and some small, will stand beside him.
In short, Gerald Laxina is called upon to save all that is.
And he'll do so...
...right after he's done with his nap.
The laziest duelist alive returns...
YU-GI-OH: TILTING THE BALANCE
Could somebody please wake up our hero?
