Rei no Kaado Summary & Timeline - WORK IN PROGRESS
Some of you may have been familiar with the first incarnation of this - made like a year ago or something by FF. Well, I went and backed up all the posts because honestly I needed a refresher on the plot it's been going on for over two years and I'm a little blocked on the fanfiction based on it (which you can find at reinokaado.mugenginga.com if anyone's curious - it is a beautiful site and you should visit it) plus there have been so many retcons and forgotten subplots that it never hurts to have a refresher.
This is done in a format I came up with as opposed to the one NN1 used for the Felix & Edd plot. I've also included for the hell of it a word count of each thread and the entire plot itself. It's... impressive to say the least. In any case, this is mostly reference for me and FF, but if you're interested have a ball.
Total Plot Word Count: 40,565

Summary: Yuugi and his other self, Atem, arrive on the Island following a cave in back in the Egypt of their world.

Summary: In the hotel, Yuugi meets a teenager named Keiichi and they walk towards their neighboring rooms together. However, the fluctuations of the hotel forces them apart and they discover a malfucntioning gaming system known as a "COMP" and have to fight a demon to bring it under control - "K1" with his own COMP and Atem with his new found card based power. K1 gifts the fixed device to Yuugi only to realize that due to the prophetic aspects of the COMPs he is set to die the next day. His attempts to steer Yuugi and Atem away from saving him only strengthen their resolve and their decision to try and help him results in their own lifespans being threatened...
