The animation in this video was commissioned by ‪@pixie-inkk‬ ! She can also be found here:   / pixie_inkk_  
All OCs featured are hers! She also made the AU + plot + script for this video :]

It took me like a year and a half to make this and I had a lot of fun but I'm definitely not doing a whole 2+ minute video comm again lol

== Main Characters ==
Athena (teal, agent 3)
Artemis (green, agent 4)
Percephone / "Ceph" (yellow w blue rings, new agent 3)
Calypso (purple, agent 8)

also featuring a bunch of canon characters who are probably all recognisable (the old man is Octavio).
and also miscellaneous sanitised / fuzzy cephalopods who were not harmed in the making of this. splatting them cures them here and they respawn cured. sometimes you are splatted by being sliced in half with a sword and it's an average tuesday

== Plot ==
Athena, the royal bodyguard to the princess of the Splatlands, is sent out of the kingdom, along with the blacksmiths Artemis and Ceph, seemingly as orders from Calypso herself -- however, she realises that they have been tricked, and this was actually the royal advisor Tartar's plan to remove everyone else from the castle so it could destroy the royals. Now they must get back home and reach the princess before it's too late!

While they were away, Tartar teamed up with Grizz, the leader of the royal guard, to transform the rest of the palace staff. Calypso's advisors and caretakers, Marina and Pearl, are also lured away by a fake note from the princess, but the witches Callie and Marie see through the ruse using their magic.
