Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Artifact>

Some old dude nearly made me quit. So annoying.
*Stretches my arms out to either side of my bed*

@Legend Begins

Ooh, well uh, glad your day's over?

Myriad Reality

Ugh... What an awful day.

@Legend Begins

Bad day at work?

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Artifact>

*Steps over onto the half with Faering as it goes, panting*

@Valiance

<Snipped quote by Valiance>

*Cranes my neck to look across both halves*
That may... Look ou—

@Nimda

*Both halves collapse, smashing into each other and imploding with both of you at the center*

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Nimda>

*Lands forcefully beside you, raising my arms up and slamming them down into the opening you’ve made, forcefully attempting to pry it apart like an elevator door*

@Valiance

*With a terrible, wet "schlick" noise, splits into two halves, both floating independently across space and time*

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Valiance>

<Snipped quote by Artifact>

*Hurls myself in front of the creature to protect it from any further oncoming strikes*
Roland!
*Lifts my hand and a serrated disk of gold light spirals outward from a central point, which I fling into the broken enemy, cleaving open wide trenches in the new lava pits*

@Nimda

<Snipped quote by Nimda>

*Stands up straight and lets out a monstrous battle cry before beginning ti repeatedly pound into the surface of the planet, digging through it massive chunk by massive chunk*

@Valiance

*The shock of the combined attacks finally split the body across a seam, cracking and visibly weakening the structural integrity*

<Snipped quote by Magnanimity>

…
*Sighs, and after a moment, likely with Chickpea’s assistance, I lock eyes with the exact point in space where the monster is currently positioned, and I tug on the space held in my grip, defying physics itself and hurling myself instantaneously from where I stand directly into the body if the beast with one of the most catastrophically explosive physical punches ever witnessed*

@Valiance

*The strike rattles across the surface of the spheroid, the kinetic energy instantly bubbling the fleshy stone into lava pits, which evaporate into gas—shockwaves erupt across the internals of the body, and the strike ejects fragments across nearby space; one of the fragments manages to penetrate Faering's aura and scratches the blob creature, the scratch immediately reflecting itself across your own cheek*

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Artifact>

*My expression strains and my muscles flex, the aberrations of reality itself beginning to grow more severe and destructive*

@Valiance

*Nothing hampers the attack, stretching across the visible horizon*

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Artifact>

*Closes my eyes*
Either way…
*Slowly extends my arms forward and grips at the air, space itself physically warping at my fingertips

@Valiance

*You find that it interacts normally, the same as being on the planet physically*

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Artifact>

A duplicate world?
*Return my gaze to my level and glances from side to side*
An illusion.

@Valiance

*The creatures stare at you, unblinking*

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Artifact>

...
*Straightens my posture and looks back up toward the sky*

@Valiance

*The sky seems empty of all life and structures*
