Welcome Welcome Welcome everyone, it's my pleasure to present *Search For Solstice*! With special Guest artist SOUTHBLADE!

In our last exciting episode, Jake Eldritch's desperate effort to free Chase Monroe finally produced something more promising than another blind search of the ocean. At University City Pier, American Override prepared to begin the hunt for Samantha DuLange's Programming Reinforcement Pod. Csheri Bombay had supplied the best estimate she could of where Samantha had been dropped years earlier, but Jake knew the search area was enormous. Ocean currents, deep trenches, and years of movement could have carried the pod far from its original location. Amber nevertheless accepted the assignment, knowing that the trace amount of Element-2 inside Samantha's pod might be their only way to find Solstice.

Meanwhile, Jake sent Csheri to Dr. Kristen Greer, hoping to recruit one more brilliant mind to the cause. After learning what Casey Stern had done to Chase, and why Element-1 was their only known hope of opening the Eternity Vault, Greer agreed to help without hesitation.Then she offered Jake something nobody else had considered.

Greer's years of research with Jennifer Vale suggested that Jennifer's portals aren't governed entirely by location. According to Greer's theory, purpose can become part of the equation. If Jennifer opens a portal while concentrating on a goal, the gateway may connect them to a reality where that objective can actually be accomplished. Suddenly, Jake's search became much bigger than the ocean surrounding University City. With Greer's theory accepted, Jennifer prepared to open a portal to another reality while focusing on one goal: finding Solstice. Amber would carry Davina Pyckle's Element-2 scanner through the gateway and search whatever world waited on the other side. The mission came with one dangerous limitation. Jennifer would need a full week before she could safely open the portal again.

Amber would have seven days to find Solstice, obtain a viable sample of Element-1, and return to the rendezvous point. If she failed, Chase Monroe would remain sealed inside the Eternity Vault, and Amber herself could be stranded in another universe. With the plan settled and the portal opened, American Override stepped forward and disappeared into another reality, and the "Search for Solstice" has finally begun.

Where has Jennifer's portal taken American Override? Will this new reality contain the Solstice they desperately need? And can Amber find Element-1 and make it home before her seven days run out? The answers to these and many new questions will begin to unfold in this newest and most exciting adventure of *World Guardians - Search For Solstice*! Episode 07 is available for members NOW!
