S10 Ep 25THE CHAMPION (GFL Book V) | Ep. 25

The Krakens just defeated the Scarlet Fliers, pride of the Neptune Net Colony. Quentin promised John Tweedy that he would join the Tweedy brothers for a night on the town. Little does Quentin know that, for weeks, his every move has been watched by an agent of the Creterakian Ministry of Religion. Quentin and that agent are about to come face-to-face.

S10 Ep 23THE CHAMPION (GFL Book V) | Ep. 23

Earlier in the year, the Krakens cut two players — the Ki lineman Gan-Ta-Kapil, and the Sklorno receiver Richfield. Richfield said she was heading out to see the universe and spread the word of her “godling,” Quentin Barnes. In Episode #22, Becca Montagne and Danny Lundy executed a power play that would make that week’s tilt against the Yall Criminals her last as a fullback, meaning Kopor the Climber will have to get up to speed to become the team’s starter at that position. The Krakens beat the Criminals to move to 4-0 on the season. Following the game, Quentin headed for the Ki Baths to clean up for the post-game press conference.

The Krakens are 3-and-0, but this week they face rivals in the Yall Criminals, led by former GFL MVP Rick Renaud. Following the away game at Coranadillana, this away game at Yall means the Krakens only have a day back at Ionath to take care of any business — and that business proves critical when Quentin’s agent shows up, demanding the Krakens make a trade.

The Krakens just defeated the Sheb Stalkers to move to 2-0 on the season. Nothing gets easier, though — the Krakens travel to Coranadillana Cloud Killers, a team against which Quentin has zero wins and three losses. In fact, they are the only Planet Division team he hasn’t beaten. Can he finally get off the schnide?

Gredok the Splithead offered to give Quentin’s sister Jeanine an apartment in the Krakens Building, an offer that Quentin accepted. Since returning from her rescue, though, he has seen little of her. On the gridiron, the Krakens won their Week One regular season opener against the Isis Ice Storm. Ionath dives right into Week 2, when they host the Sheb Stalkers, also 1-0, in a cross-divisional matchup.

S10 Ep 18THE CHAMPION (GFL Book V) | Ep. 18

Becca Montagne is pushing to take the third spot on the quarterback depth chart, but Quentin is pushing back, hard. He wants his All-Pro fullback to stay where she is, blocking for him and for Ju Tweedy. Quentin convinced Gredok to trade for quarterback Trevor Haney, who will start the season 3rd on the depth chart behind Number-Two QB Yhitzak Goldman. Goldman still hasn’t forgiven Quentin for passing him over in the Galaxy Bowl. As we enter the third week of the pre-season, Quentin is running out of time to get his teammates on the same page.

It’s the second week of pre-season, the time for those rookies to arrive. Quentin is expecting a backup quarterback to round out the depth chart. Did Gredok the Splithead acquire the player Quentin wanted?

The Krakens were back at “The Big Eye” in Ionath City to open up training camp. Now, the Krakens head into Week Two of the pre-season. But things aren’t all football — when Quentin & Co were in the Portath Cloud, they were visited by a projection of Petra Prawatt, the living God of the Prawatt race. She used Cormorant Bumberpuff to project herself and deliver a message about a pending intergalactic invasion. Quentin can’t trust Bumberpuff, and tension between the two All-Pro players remains high.

Quentin and his friends have met the mostly unknown Portath. In that meeting, he came to learn that the kidnapping of his sister wasn’t set up by a rival team or a revenge-minded gangster, but none other than the living god herself, Petra Prawatt, so she could deliver a message to the Prawatt about a pending galactic-scale invasion from a race known as the Abernessia. Petra’s tool for this manipulation? Cormerant Bumberpuff, Quentin’s Ionath Krakens teammate. Quentin needs to find out Bumberpuff’s involvement, and find a way to free his sister, his friends, and himself from the Portath.

Instead of rescuing his sister, is Quentin doomed to remain just as lost as she was?
