Chapter 252: New person
"Necromancy? Well in one case yes, but it's not what you think. Resurrection always comes at a cost. The lines between the dimensions become blurred. It never ends well when resurrection is involved. There is more pain later than what they bargain for." John said while looking at Tony.
"I understand." Tony said as he understood that bringing his parents back wouldn't end well.
"John, are my parents alive in other universes?" Tony asked.
"He is in some. You might even see them one day." John said. Tony got excited when John said and he couldn't wait for that day to come.
The movie continued as John and others went to investigate into the matter with the help of Keshanti Key given by Ritchie. They got a clue but they needed more information. They again came back to Ritchie to ask more but found that he was again on the verge of death. Now it was more terrible.
John and others again brought him to life. There was also Jason present there and finally they got to know the history of Jason. A man belonging to the ancient times. The time of Merlin, the great wizard who tied Jason with Ertrigan.
"Merlin too is real. I have a feeling that all past lore is based on reality." Steve said.
"Most of them are actually." Diana replied.
Jason was there to get his hands on dreamstone as it was a very powerful weapon, the stuff of nightmares. They then proceeded to work on the clue after Ritchie woke up.
John and others later followed the information given by Ritchie and with the help of Swamp Thing and tracked down the man responsible for all the nightmares. They confronted Felix Faust but later realized that he wasn't the main culprit.
It was Ritchie all along. Since he was close to death he wanted to make a gamble. He wanted to use the dreamstone to keep himself alive. Destiny, an evil sorcerer, from ancient times was trapped in the dreamstone and he took over the body of Ritchie when he revealed he had the other part of the dreamstone.

Fan values required for John Constantine - 350 million]
"Wow, Constantine is costly. Extract him. And I need another item." John said.
[Ding
Fan value required for extracting the staff of Shazam (wizard's staff) - 400 million]
"Damn even being a non living item it still costs that much?" John then proceeded to summon them. Out came John Constantine with his famous overcoat and cigarette on his mouth. John directly shared his memories with Constantine.
"Bollocks.. Another world.. Another headache." Constantine said as he got to know everything.
"That's why I have insurance for you. Take this staff of Shazam. I will take the House of Mysteries." John said.
"Shazam? That's a good deal I presume." Constantine said as he took the wizard staff. He looked into the staff for a few seconds before keeping it in a magical invisible depository.
"Keep an eye out for magical openings. It might get nasty soon." John said.
"Worry not." Constantine replied.
