The 5th anniversary special begins with Jercy's entrance into the Afterlife (following the production of a Michael Bay movie), where he runs into two old friends and sets the barely-existent plot of this special into motion...
Also, I'm sorry this was a delayed a bit. I had a get-together with a bunch of my family members on July 2nd so I was AFK, as they say. But I hope you enjoy!

The logo. Sadly, the format of the template used
prohibited me from having free reign with the camera... |

...and so does he... |
So, yes, this special is all about Jercy, Shadow, and Zawnty looking back at the 5 years of the series' history. I know it's not much of a plot and it's much "quieter" than the other specials, but I think having Spore the Next Level go on in some form or another for 5 years is a momentous occasion that deserves a special of its own. In each flashback's release post, I'll post little things on the history of the series and how I got the idea for each part.
The only thing for this part really is that I chose to go to the Afterlife, introduced in eme12's adventures back in 2011, so I could reintroduce the long-running characters of Shadow and Zawnty who were last used (or abused) in fungus3's Search for the Lost Worlds; and I used it to set up a time travel plot that wouldn't harm continuity with time paradoxes. It's a bit like
It's a Wonderful Life or
A Christmas Carol in that respect, albeit celebrating STNL's past instead of Christmas.
