<Snipped quote by Nimda>

*From a singular spot amidst the debris, rubble jettisons from the collective in one space like a geyser, followed shortly after by me rocketing away from the calamity*

@Valiance

*Sighs in relief*
Good, you made it.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Nimda>

*Nothing happens from either of our ends*

@Magnanimity

*Moments later, escapes from the collapse in a flash of golden light and arcs over to where the creature previously stood while space itself shakes in the cataclysm*
Roland, Chickpea, are you both okay?

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Nimda>

*Extends my arms out to either side before disappearing in the chaos*

@Valiance

*A wide ray of golden light continues to pierce the ruins of the entirety, even as it crashes on top of me*

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Artifact>

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

@Valiance

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

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Nimda>

Well your instinct seems correct. I’ll watch this thing. We need you to not hold back.

@Magnanimity

*Nods in courtesy before launching off, landing with an eruption of golden streamers and wedging the planet open by a hair*

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Nimda>

*Manifests by the creature and spins around it, staring studiously*
Weeeell, what is this curious little thing?

@Magnanimity

Whatever it is, it keeps trying to get itself killed. And knowing our opponent, I'm not going to let it.

…
*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

<Snipped quote by 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*

@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*

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Valiance>

…

<Snipped quote by Artifact>

*Scans quickly across the universe, searching for where Faering or the monster may have gone*

@Magnanimity

*Is along the same path we took before, still locked in combat with the monster, but now protecting one of the black creatures that stands in Roland’s place and tries to hop into any attack it sees*

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Artifact>

*It slams down onto my back, though not fully knocking me away, its weight and force does knock me to one knee. I brace the weight on my back and push myself back up to a standing position, and look at Faering, signaling for her to move*

@Valiance

Rol—Oh, great.
*Swoops into a defensive guard and fortifies the area with golden light*

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Artifact>

I'd be horrified to imagine what this thing could do if it got its hands on either of you.
*Lifts my hand and manifests a small blue ball from my palm, which begins spinning rapidly and blasting lasers from its surface rapidly and erratically at all approaching entities like a disco ball of death*

@Magnanimity

No kidding.
*Each of the lasers are coated in an aura of holy golden light, which adds additional piercing effects to the entity*
