Amphibia: The Four Torches Lighting the Path to Glory
is an Amphibia fanfic by SummonWater827.
This fanfic retells the story of Amphibia with George Burnstead, a free-spirited Scottish-American 13-year-old boy, who bought the Calamity Box, intended as a present for Anne's birthday after having a falling out with his parents, but ended up splitting them all up in different locations in Amphibia upon opening the box. The girls end up in the same locations and situations as in canon, but George ends up in an archipelago called Salamand, where he spots a ship and swims up to it, thus joining the ranks of the Salamand Navy, on his way to get back together with his friends. Little do he or the girls know what plans fate has just around the bend for them in the end.
This fanfic features examples of:
- Fiery Redhead: George has a flaming red mullet, and has quite the temper when provoked.
- Late-Arrival Spoiler: The prologue spoils the revelation of the box that would’ve been revealed much later in the show itself.
- Really Moves Around: George's family had moved from place to place every two years prior to the events of the story, according to George, before they settled in Los Angeles, and his parents were about to move again without warning, to his fury, as he hated moving constantly and wanted to stay, but ended up taking Anne, Sasha, and Marcy with him to Amphibia after buying the Calamity Box as it happened to be Anne's birthday and he recognized it from the same book Marcy read, but he found it in a bookstore and he thought the idea of traveling to other worlds was fascinating, but only thought of getting the box for Anne as a present.
