Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Armed Forces>

*The ground of the battlefield now rumbles continuously, and shears appear across the landscape, outlining a massive hexagonal pattern that branches out and tessellates across the landscape*

@Session

*Shoulders my sword and then speaks to seemingly the air*
I need reports.
*Stands still for several moments in silence, and before I can air another statement, the soldiers under the dome raise their weapons over their head and let out triumphant cheers*

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Armed Forces>

*Lightning strikes at the moment you touch the ground, and the wind continues to push against the insects entering through the portal and the pools very much depleted*

@Session

*Under the supporting cover of the soldiers, any Kalsimer charging my way get mowed down as the beams are continuously bent backwards, taking their time in vaporizing other bugs before their trajectories become totally inverted, cleaving the beetles in two with their own attack where they stood. They collapse where they stand and, after a not-insignificant amount more aerial forces come through the tear, it closes itself, tearing the bodies of the titans in half once more where they fell*

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Crew>

*A powerful wind pushes against the insects exiting the distortions, just to slow them down enough to give the squadrons additional time to execute them*

@Session

<Snipped quote by Session>

*The aerial ones specifically push through with much more ease than those on the ground. Two more of the giant beetles come through side-by side in the same manner as the first, and they open their mandibles just the same as the men on the ground can be heard begrudgingly preparing each other for the worst as the beams both slam into their shield together, causing it to waver intensely*

@Crew

*The beams suddenly forcibly bend in their path, and seem to unnaturally curve out and then upwards, tearing massive gashes across the previously insurmountable quantity of bugs in the air. Moments later, I come soaring in, twirling my hefty sword so rapidly that the blade disappears at the hilt*

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Armed Forces>

*Turns my neck to look at you sideways without fully facing you*

@Revolutionary

I'm serious.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Armed Forces>

What's their worth?

@Revolutionary

I would help regardless of their worth.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Armed Forces>

Of course.
*Turns and slowly steps toward the view port*
You're willing to take a questionable mission on to save these people?

@Revolutionary

I would.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Armed Forces>

Hm—
*Wanders, looking for a staff area entrance*

@Session

*You find one with relative ease, but it seems devoid of activity as well. A few individuals do round the corner from a far hallway, coming from where signs indicate would be a cafeteria*

<Snipped quote by Armed Forces>

No.
*Takes the folder without looking at it and tucks it away*

@Revolutionary

I trust you to get it done. You know the drill- The mission is yours to handle, and from this point forward, I know nothing.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Armed Forces>

*Enters through the front door and makes my way to the reception desk with a smile*

@Session

*You find the desk area empty, with no one present to meet you*

<Snipped quote by Armed Forces>

*Stands by the door to the bridge as you return, waiting*
You have something for me.

@Revolutionary

*Stops and looks at you momentarily, then takes Luke's folder from the inside of my coat*
Would it ever kill you to respond first?

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Armed Forces>

*Turns around with a disarming wave toward the residents and starts toward the entrance of the hospital*

@Session

*The small handfuls of people watch you, but don't get in your way or otherwise directly approach you as you do*

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Armed Forces>

All sounds like a plan.
*Steps onto the circle*
Whenever you're ready!

@Session

Godspeed.
*In a flash of blue, with almost no buildup, you view suddenly changes as you stand on the inside of a metallic fence in the grass, and beyond the fence lies another layer of makeshift barricading, beyond which the skyline of a city is visible, but nothing on the ground level from where you stand. From over your shoulder, the murmurs of a few surprised folks are heard*
