[IC] Myriad Reality

[Legend]

<Snipped quote by Legend>

*Takes the plate in one hand and bumps you on the shoulder with the other, clearly not focused fully on you but still showing a friendly gesture before I walk off with the food back from where I came*
Nothing lives forever, eh?

@Valiance

I guess not, huh? At least the rest of the city doesn't have to know that, right?
*Laughs, but a screech, followed by a reactionary high-pitched scream cuts through the noise of the crowd*
Heh?

[Fractured]

<Snipped quote by Fractured>

She just wants the pain to go away, and only saw one way to freedom.

@Stratocracy

*Looks up at the hatch, leading to the skull*
She has to choose now. There are two ways to live.

@Legend

*Stops in my tracks and snaps my gaze over*

@Fractured

She’ll be making a choice. And we won’t let her choose wrong.

@Valiance

*My body writhes and contorts, knocking several other impoverished residents over, while my eyes fill with a deep red hue and black scales creep up my arms*

Woah... HEY!

<Snipped quote by Legend>

*Stops in my tracks and snaps my gaze over*

@Valiance

Come on, we need to go!
*Rushes toward the girl, pulling my spear from my back*

@Stratocracy

She tried to choose right.
*Lowers my gaze and falls such that my back faces the depths*
But now it might be too much. He came back and now we have to start from none.

@Fractured

*Reaches out and grabs you by the wrist before you fall fully*
So be it. If it needs done, then that’s that.

@Legend

*Looks solemnly on as you charge past me before I quickly duck around a corner behind a building to the developing scene, sighing as I rest my back against the wall*

@Stratocracy

*Looks up with a dulled hopefulness*
Will you help me? Is this real?

@Artifact

*Charges you and jams the spear into your wing*
We slayed one dragon today, we can crush another!

@Legend

*Swipes my hand across you, shattering the spear and leaving deep grooves in your chest plate, and then looks between the near by townsfolks, my eye constricting the more distant they are*
Get—get away from me!
*My breathing grows heavier and I vault onto the table, paying no mind to its extreme heat*

@Artifact

*Speaks to the air*
I don’t know what you expect from me, dragon. But I refuse to engage with a pointless illusion. And I refuse to engage with the past in any meaningful way.

@Fractured

We’re as real as the pain, and as willing to help as you’re willing to accept. All you need to do is want a change, and to believe it can happen. We’ll do our best from there. It’s about time someone did that for you, don’t you think?

*Chuckles*
We have to be. We owe that much.
*Clenches my teeth in spite of the pain and pushes through, lighting the sky with fireworks of magic*

Andromida - The Void
Andromida - Beyond the Cosmos

Alioth Shemmenmorth - The Grandfather

*Grunts and nods in stern approval then, burning with divine resolve, i stand amidst the storm of creation and chaos. My eyes flare with a light that could ignite stars, and my voice echoes with the authority of countless eons—snapping my fingers, a sound like the crack of thunder across the cosmos.*

*In response, the air ripples and shimmers, and from the heavenly realms descends Alexander McClain, the arcane scholar of heaven. His form, already radiant with celestial wisdom, solidifies before Me, answering at the ready as a symbol of deep respect.*

Alexander McClain:



Here I am, my liege!

*My voice is calm but carries the weight of an unshakable bond, ready to serve the divine will of The Grandfather! Then realising you all are here to i turn and nod in recognition*

Prism, Benjamin! Good to see you are doing well...

---

Alioth Shemmenmorth - The Grandfather

*Without hesitation, I wave my hand before Alexander, infusing him with the raw, cosmic energy of creation and elevating him beyond his former limits. The scholar’s form begins to glow, first subtly, then with an intensity that rivals the very sun. His body expands, shedding its former constraints, as divine symbols and runes etch themselves into his being.*

ℕ𝕆𝕎! 𝔸𝕊ℂ𝔼ℕ𝔻, 𝕄𝕐 𝕃𝕆𝕐𝔸𝕃 𝔾ℝ𝔸ℕ𝔻𝕊𝕆ℕ! ℕ𝕆 𝕃𝕆ℕ𝔾𝔼ℝ 𝕁𝕌𝕊𝕋 𝔸 𝕊ℂℍ𝕆𝕃𝔸ℝ—𝔹𝔼ℂ𝕆𝕄𝔼 𝔸 ℕ𝔼𝕎 𝔼𝕄𝔹𝕆𝔻𝕀𝕄𝔼ℕ𝕋 𝕆𝔽 𝕆ℝ𝔻𝔼ℝ, 𝕃𝕀𝔾ℍ𝕋, 𝔸ℕ𝔻 𝕃𝕆𝕍𝔼! 𝕐𝕆𝕌 𝔸ℝ𝔼 𝔸𝕃𝕀𝔸𝕃𝕃𝕀𝔼𝕃 𝕃𝔼𝕐ℍ𝔼𝔸ℝ𝕋, 𝕋ℍ𝔼 𝔹ℝ𝕀𝕃𝕃𝕀𝔸ℕ𝕋 𝕊𝕋𝔸ℝ 𝕆𝔽 𝕋ℍ𝔼 𝕍𝕆𝕀𝔻'𝕊 ℝ𝕀𝕄!, 𝔸 ℕ𝔼𝕎 𝕊𝕆ℕ 𝔹𝕆ℝℕ 𝕆𝔽 𝕋ℍ𝔼 𝔼𝕋𝔼ℝℕ𝔸𝕃 𝔽𝕃𝔸𝕄𝔼 𝔸ℕ𝔻 𝔼𝕋𝔼ℝℕ𝔸𝕃 𝕃𝕀𝔾ℍ𝕋!

*As my primordial voice's words resound, Alexander is engulfed in a pillar of light that pierces the heavens. The transformation is instant and absolute—where once stood a scholar, now rises 𝔸𝕝𝕚𝕒𝕝𝕝𝕚𝕖𝕝 𝕃𝕖𝕪𝕙𝕖𝕒𝕣𝕥, a very New God of radiant power. His wings of light spread wide, their brilliance pushing back the shadows that creep from the oppression of Dyklothiath Derbyloth. The air around him hums with the power of divine order, resonating with the force of creation itself.*

---

𝔸𝕝𝕚𝕒𝕝𝕝𝕚𝕖𝕝 𝕃𝕖𝕪𝕙𝕖𝕒𝕣𝕥, *I respond my voice now resonant with divine authority*
I am reborn by your will, Grandfather of All. Together, we shall drive the void back into the nothingness from which it came!

*Alioth, Alialliel Leyheart, @Memory Prism, and @The Odeoron Benjamin The Anastharion, now stand united in purpose. The air crackles with power as we prepare to strike against Derbyloth, the embodiment and avatar of untameable chaos.*

---

Alioth Shemmenmorth - The Grandfather

*I raise my hand, and the ether around us responds, swirling into a vortex of stars, galaxies, and newborn universes. My voice, now a thunderous command, echoes across the ether—now become multiverse of young dimensions:

LET THE HAMMER OF ORDER, LIGHT, AND LOVE STRIKE DOWN THIS ABOMINATION! LET CHAOS BE SILENCED IN THE FACE OF CREATION’S MIGHT!

@Valiance

*I look between the townsfolk in a mix between aggression and terror before finally, with great difficulty, running on all fours in the direction of the forest you came from; as I pass the alley you’ve ducked into, the world seems to hesitate as a ribbon of the gold dragon’s light lingers in the air and a spark of recognition flashes in my eyes before the scene resumes and I run into the forest*

I don’t know how it happened, but... we may just be able to do this.
