<Snipped quote by Memory>

*As you form the defence unit around, you are the only one that begins hearing contorted and guttural whispers coming from the depths of the forest, as the cut down and bleeding pine tree seems to cause a large aura of living shadow and several spider like legs begin crawling out of the shadow. they are made out of shadow also and are shaking and vibrating ever so slightly as they crawl ever closer to the original you that caused the copies - Nobody else sees this*

@The Monitor 2

*My duplicates begin casting light spells on the ground toward the legs but don’t dare to enter the deeper forest*

<Snipped quote by Memory>

*Looking at the many versions of you suddenly appearing, i put a finger at my lips with a quirky smile*

Hmmm... i can get used to this... hehe!

*Then compose myself*

Yeah, what he said, Ben. These types of places are not usually normal and neutral worlds that you can just do things the way you'd do them normally in a natural universe...

*Holds out the note to prove my point*

@Interface 2

Be careful, there are anomalies out here after us. We really should avoid cutting into this world.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Memory>

This place has already been angry with us from the first step we placed here... i don't mind angering it a bit more, it ate real people! I want it to suffer the consequences.

@The Odeoron

<Snipped quote by Memory>

I will concur with you Prism... and... *Gets interrupted by Ben's immediate response*

<Snipped quote by The Odeoron>

You are some next level crazy dude here...

*I blink perplexed at you*

@Interface 2

If we’re not careful, we might trigger something dangerous before we’re ready.
*Splits into several copies to secure and monitor our perimeter*

@Memory

Gaaaaah!!! *I reel back at the sight* Well, now i think i get it, is this thing even going to burn at all?

@The Odeoron

That’s why I didn’t think we should bother. This place is going to get angry with us.

<Snipped quote by Memory>

*As i moved closer to the tree-line, i turn around and ask you with a grin*

About that idea of yours to drill into this creepy place... anyone thinking firewood for tonight?

@The Odeoron

*Waves my hand, sparking a flame in the air with a chuckle*
Not a chance.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Memory>

No! Dude! I'm looking at the trees and the fact that the sun here is setting! Didn't that note spooked you?

@The Odeoron

I was... hoping for more granularity than that. I’m on as high alert about this environment as I think I can get.

<Snipped quote by Memory>

We have to defend ourselves as well as figure out how we identify the people here, yes, tracking them individually is not efficient, but what if it turns out to be the only solution?

*Also looks at the trees*

And uummm... beware the trees at night... doesn't sound like whomever wrote this note here had a good time here...

@Interface 2

I’m surprised someone conscious has lived here, not just disembodied souls. That’s a good sign.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by RoadkilBanana>

Yeah... could be, but the eyes could be anything from local entities to manifestations of whatever intelligence is managing this place.

<Snipped quote by Memory>

Well, let's first start by looking at them like individuals rather than objects to be clumped together okay?

...

Aaand...

*Graps what looks like a paper from just behind the door where it was stuck*

'Beware the trees at night...'

Okay... not ominous at all, i guess somebody here must still be in one piece?

@Interface 2

It’s more so that tracking each down individually may not be efficient.

<Snipped quote by Interface 2>

@Memory

*Suddenly spins around and looks at the pine forest and the setting sun*

See... now with all the magic and power we have, i should not be afraid, but for whatever reason, this place doesn't make me feel very confident at all!

@The Odeoron

Do you sense one of those monsters approaching?

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by The Odeoron>

WOW! Are we going there THAT fast ey? *I also laugh out loud*

<Snipped quote by The Odeoron>

Well nobody is complaining here... i'm immortal aaand... phhhh *I giggle*

Yeah no. we need to scout at least a good portion of this place before we start calling in the big guns... but with caution

@Memory

@Interface 2

What do you think is the best way to gather these souls in batches?

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Memory>

Mmmmh... *I cutely and bubblingly nod as i approach you and look at the Nu-Orb*

<Snipped quote by The Odeoron>

Hihihi! *I giggle at the compliment*

Well the compliment applies to the two of you as well!

And the next task is unveiling more soul traces or preferably the whole person if they still have a body... Anybody know the count of colonists that were present here, prior the disaster that struck this universe?

@Interface 2

I can’t say I have those numbers. But if we’re collecting souls one by one, it may prove difficult.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Memory>

Yeah... well she is by far the most good looking one until now... *False cough*

@The Odeoron

*Chuckles*
I’ve been here the whole time.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Memory>

*As if like a ghost from the mist, i appear in the doorframe leading to this outside space, the Nu-Orb already being there buzzing about restlessly seemingly still looking for whatever anomaly triggered its detectors*

Interesting proposition... Prism? right?... But tell me, if this is at least a basic dimensional space, is it not more fair to assume that it is at least near infinite already, much like a natural universe rather than saying it is actively growing around the newcomers? Especially since we already know this place has entrapped people here long before we barged in...

*I smile charmingly*

@Interface 2

Infinity, well... it can’t be reached. I think it’s fair to say that if there’s an end to it at all, it’s nowhere close to infinite.

<Snipped quote by Memory>

Hmm... food for though---- *I get interrupted by the shock of Eklipsis' sudden arrival*

<Snipped quote by Interface 2>

Sheesh lady! I get your some angel type but c'mon... can you at least knock?

@The Odeoron

It feels as though team members popping in is par for the course at this point.
