Mmmm, nothin’ yet!

@Session

I don’t sense him either.

Myriad Reality

*Looks for any indicators of the enemy*

<Snipped quote by Zeal>

*Belly laughs as my downward force seems to explode exponentially past anything you could expect, explosively launching tiny debris from the ground straight up into the air all around us like shrapnel under your everyone's feet everywhere, and breaking the ground up for everyone not standing on the surface while I sink out of sight*

@Nemeses

*Bursts through the surface like it was water and holds one of the beads between my index and middle finger to fling it into the stage*
Metal the source of all that binds, confine my enemy within your grasp!
*The stage rumbles and morphs, becoming denser and stronger*

Myriad Reality

*Continues working underneath the stage*

<Snipped quote by Session>

Thanks for the invitation. We’ll put a pin in it.
*Drops from the air to the ground and crosses my arms*

@Nemeses

*You touching down activates a gravity well spell, amplifying your weight considerably*

*Disappears for just a moment in between them, but then a streak of heat surges along the edge of one of the fists, as my hands pry them apart from the inside. I climb out from between them and tear a long, thin strand of metal from them as I do*
This one should make it very clear what exactly is happening to you.
*Hoists the red-hot metal up over my shoulder like a javelin and heaves it straight into the ground. It burns and drills cleanly through dirt and rock until it comes barreling through the cavern ceiling directly into your chest while still retaining blinding velocity*

@Nemeses

*Lurches backward against the cavern wall as it's illuminated by the dim light of the metal*
Death lightning, death rain, flight, enemy detection, enhanced strength... Lily, I need you to sniff out anything else he can do and keep his eyes off of me.
*Dissolves another orb in my hand to convert it into a small gold spell, and I phase into the metal behind it*

Myriad Reality

*Puckers my lips*
Fine, but don't say I didn't warn you.

@Session

Just warn me if he's about to knock me out of the air like that again.
*Places my hands against the walls of the cavern, crumbling and pulling toward me at my touch*

<Snipped quote by Nimda>

*Holds my hands out to my side and starts spraying a luminescent energy that behaves like water spraying from a hose out of either palm, lighting my immediate space and raining down violently explosive rain below in a downpour of droplets that annihilate everything they touch on impact with deafening detonations*

@Nemeses

Lesser Golem's Touch!
*Spindles of the stage's metal weave around the destructive beads like streams of water and stop on either side of you; they morph into enormous fists that slam together with you at the center*

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Nimda>

So? You didn't even know they existed an hour ago. And a lot of good it does you if you get killed out here.

@Session

Then we live. What we're not going to do is let their deaths be in vain.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Nimda>

Want to call it off? No time like the present.

@Session

Leave? After he slaughtered all those innocent people?

@Nemeses

*Emerges deep underground in a cavern shaken open by the explosions*
This job does not remotely pay enough.
