[IC] Myriad Reality

[Fractured]

<Snipped quote by Fractured>

*takes the hit with noticeable pain as I search for you*

@Asce

*Steps through the river of butterflies toward you*
You don't have to do this! We could make peace and end it all!

Honestly, two hours is nothing. I thought it was going to take several days of meditation.

@Meta

It may have and I just don't remember it.

@Fractured

My peace is your death. Your brutal and cruel death that I bring upon you with my own hands!
*swings my blade at you with blinding speed*

@Asce

*Twirls my staff in my hands, clinking against the blade*
Why? Why do you want to do this?

@Fractured

Because I want to see people suffer, see them cry out in pain as I slowly creep them towards death’s door.
*swipes away the staff then goes to stab you*
It brings me satisfaction, amusement, joy even!

@Asce

*Looks down at the blade piercing my abdomen*
I didn't want it to come to this... it's not too late.

@Fractured

*grabs your face, pulling the blade out leaving a wound that doesn’t seem to heal fast*
Whatever holy quest you have for me is futile. Your death and suffering along with the death those incarnations of Lunar are my goal right now.

@Asce

Why me?

[Asce]

<Snipped quote by Asce>

Why me?

@Fractured

Because you, dear child, gave me a chance to free myself from this prison.
*grins*
And to search for you when you found me. A hunt. Would my perfect gift for you. Giving you time to run, hide. Before I find you.
*begins to slowly crush your head*
Despite all of that, you came to find me! And you have just kept giving me more. Stuggling, for your life.

@Asce

I don't... want... any of this!
*The world lurches forward and then back to its original position amidst an ear-piercing ringing noise*
Terminal Migraine!
*The color drains from the surrounding region, leaving us as inky silhouettes surrounded by a grayscale backdrop—I drop to the ground and thrust an open palm into your neck, causing the image to fracture like glass*

@Fractured

*flies into the ceiling and bounces into the wall and ground, making a gutteral growl as blood pours from my mouth*

@Asce

*The broken image shatters like glass, leaving a miscolored reality in its wake*
Lucid Dream!
*Twelve spikes jut from the walls and ceiling, impaling you at their center*

@Fractured

*slices and punches a majority of them as four pierce me*

...
*Looks away, while the four that stab through you turn 180° from the exit wound and stab through you again*

@Fractured

*my blood spins into a tornado, shredding the spikes and then encases the holes, covering them*

@Asce

How do you even do that?
*Waves my hand, deforming the cave walls and trapping you in a small box that gradually shrinks in size*

@Fractured

*slices through the box and the blood that was covering my wounds are gone and it appears that the muscles were attached to each other to seal the wounds, leaving grotesque scars*
This body is merely a tool,
*stabs the blade into the ground and the ground around me glows*

@Asce

It should be a treasure!
*Forms another bow, nocks three arrows, and aims it at you*

*the ground erupts as I roar, black slime bursts in random spots around the ground*
