There, while hovering above the [[Interdimensional Tavern]], they found [[Marksmanship-522]], who they decided must be the reincarnated Ancient One. Taking him to Automatia, they beamed him onto the Emperor's ship despite his protests. However, by coincidence, Marksmanship ended up discovering the Salamandyrs' great weakness to lavender, and soon forced them all to flee back to their own Dimension. As he was being hailed by a hero by the Automata, Marksmanship witnessed the return of the ''actual'' Ancient One, who apologised for being late, explaining that traffic in [[the Underworld]] had been terrible. While he caught up with the rest of the Order, minor robot [[21-419]] was assigned to fly Marksmanship back to the Tavern aboard the Order's Void Ship.

Some time later, as [[Christmas]] preparations started in Automatia, the four-armed Captain gave the Ancient One a tour of the realm to show him what he'd missed. As they were passing through the market-place, they received a letter delivered by the [[Interdimensional Post Office]], addressed to the Ancient One and inviting him to a quest for treasure in the Land of [[Manik]]. However, deeming that it was to soon after his resurrection to go gallivanting off on more adventures, the Ancient One passed on the opportunity, but gave his invitation to [[21-419]], who went instead. | |||
It subsequently transpired that the invitation had been sent as a trap by [[Darius]], who wanted to use the Ancient One as a lure for the Salamandyrs and then get his revenge on ''them'' for one of them having escaped from his zoo of mutates. However, he was soundly defeated by 21-419 and the other treasure-seekers, who discovered that the treasure was real after all. Having heard that the Ancient One was unhappy with the simple wooden chair he used as a throne, which made his joints ache, 21-419 retrieved an ornate throne from the hoard and brought it back to Automatia as a gift for the Ancient One, in addition to the treasure he'd selected for himself, a “lovely goblet” which he intended to use “for holding oil in”.
