Summary of Receipt
The world ends. Leviathan unseals the Black Tide, dooming all of the Flipside (and Otherside) to be annihilated by the formerly-imprisoned Elders. Dolos, Greek God of Trickery, resets time in order to pay back some debts that the Cafe and Diner were owed, though this is their last chance.

YOUR HUMBLE AIDE OF THE NIGHT
Well, that didn’t go how it was meant to. Another time around should set the record straight. You know, it really isn’t our place to meddle in these affairs? Ah, who do I kid, it has been so long since we last had a good meddling! Besides, I would rather not have all of Olympus fall to the icy death that lurks below the Black Tide.
Leviathan doesn’t often break the Tide seal because not even he can control what horrors escape from it. So whatever you did, or I suppose I should say, whatever you stole, must have really ticked the ol’ fish off. Be thankful you still have some friends in high places willing to push fate in your favor. Consider us even. Our debts are paid with your Cafe and Diner, even if our debtor is no longer around to collect.
So, try again Cafe and Diner, although I warn you this will be your last attempt. I have no stomach for such temporal trickery. It lacks... refinement. Style. Pizzazz. The next we meet, hopefully, it is under more deceitful circumstances. And when next we met, my siblings nor I owe anything else to you, so do not expect anything more.
