You really don't...and you won't unless somebody shows you.

@LimeTime966

What is there to show?

@Galaxy Raider @Fractured

*As we step through, we witness a scene of true chaos and horror. EDB ships as wel las public ships of all sorts being torn to shreds by creatures of amaranthine. Explosions here and there that rock the dimension. Worlds all around us being assailed from all sides. I click my comms of for just a second, and all I can hear are screams of pleas for life.*

....

*unsheathes my blade*

Let's make this count. One shot, and its got to work.

Don't let it get to you, kay?

@Webmaster

Heh. There's a lot. first, the space in between realities, the different forms universes can take, how to navigate them. A lot to show.

*Five Years Later...*

Theme Image and song for helping with setting the scene

Theme of a sorrowful search-->

*The soft hum of the spacecraft's engines created a sense of calm as Akella and I are drifting through the void of space. Five years of searching had passed, at least this universe's 5 years, and yet the cosmos, with all its wonders, remained vast and quiet. The thousands of planets of the many systems spun lazily in the distance, suns flickered in the periphery, and nebulae stretched like cosmic oceans, yet no sign of Lumyell Morningstar had surfaced.

My hand hovered over the ship's console, my fingers lightly brushing the glowing controls. I leaned back the chair, gazing out at the swirling planets below. The starlight outside bathing my face in pale blues and purples, contrasting against the warm glow from the cockpit's instruments.*

*My voice suddenly breaks the ethereal silence.* No sign of him anywhere in the surrounding system, sweetie...

*I'm beside you, my posture relaxed but my eyes sharp, scanning the galactic map that floated holographically before us. It was the same result as always—no trace, no anomaly, nothing that suggested their elusive target was anywhere close.*

*I sigh, letting my head fall back against the headrest.* Yeah, I think it’s fair to say he’s not in this galaxy, at least...

@The Odeoron

*I turn to glance at you, my expression softening.* Five years and still nothing. We’ve combed through star systems that shouldn’t even exist, navigated anomalies that weren’t meant to cross paths with the natural world… and still, he’s out there. Somewhere.

@Nimda

*closes my eyes, taking in a shaky breath, then exhaling*

... much easier said than done... but the concern is appreciated.

*looks to the smallest planet, as J can sense a familiar presence there... a dark one*

... there. That's were that evil bastard is.

*starts making my way toward it, when a large blast of enegy several miles wide clips my side*

Fuck!

*a singular entity floats toward me, radiating insane levels of energy*

Adrian: ..the fool has come. You... will die here.

@The Monitor

*I smile faintly, but there is a tension behind it. Five years of relentless pursuit, jumping from one system to the next, tearing through the anomalies of the universe and exploring black holes in search of a single, godlike being. Lumyell Morningstar, once imprisoned in a divine stronghold, had escaped, leaving chaos in his wake. And now, we had to find him before he could wreak havoc on existence itself.*

Maybe we’re thinking about this all wrong, *I mutter.* I mean, we've been looking for disturbances, for signs of his power. But what if he's deliberately avoiding that? What if he's hiding his influence, waiting for the right moment?

*Scans over the all the mayhem I can take in from where we stand*
You said we're sticking together? What first?

[Crew]

<Snipped quote by Crew>

*One by one, the burning particles are exchanged with a particle from the planet's natural forces, and the burning components are joined to my own—any consciousness left of the man experiences the world closing in around him*

@Session

*You receive no reaction, likely as the man was already at least largely unconscious*

*I sigh in resignation with evident exhaustion behind my demeanour* You're right Aky... *Then i pause for a second* You know what, we will be returning to the base while he... *A copy of me spawns behind me*

Benjamin 2: I'm going back to that tavern where i left Prism... for him it should have been barely a week there. i need to see if i'm missing something

Benjamin 1: *Nods stoically* Well then... it is settled, time to at least explore other avenues in the meantime...

Benjamin 2: *I go to the door to enter the main deck of the ship and instead of opening it i touch its surface as it starts glowing with light, then it opens and i'm in the tavern once more to everyone there it would have barely been a week and i have a different outfit* Wellp... here i am again *I sigh and mutter to myself*

Help we with this guy!

*fires severla blasts of energy at Adrian, who seems unfazed, if not just agitated at the attack*

Adrian: ...annoying gnat.

Hi there. What can I do for you?
