Right…
*Takes my blade and stabs it directly down into the earth, then turns my hands palm-up and, starting at my hips, slowly raises them until they’re over my head and completely outstretched. Throughout the entire motion, the very energy of the fire itself is raised from the earth as we stand on it and ejected forcibly into deep space en masse*

@Armed Forces

*Stands at the bottom with a cheeky grin and a wave, clearly physically severely burnt, with particles evaporating from my flesh*
I think—
*Coughs*
I think you beat them.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Session>

*Spins my blade around and parts the winds themselves, dicing them up into many small sub-trajectories and forcibly breaking the storm up as quickly as it came, clearing the skies around us*
Lynn? Did you make it?

@Armed Forces

*A column of visible black fire erupts from the empty pools, filling their volume with its substance and licking at the upper atmosphere, beaconing upward with a deafening roar*

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by 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*

@Armed Forces

*The natural disasters continue to accumulate across the planet in spite of the insects being vanquished, and a hurricane starts to pick up where the soldiers stand*

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by 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*

@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*

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by 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*

@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*

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Session>

*From the horde by the springs into which you dove, a massive head of a gargantuan beetle-esque bug emerges, and before its body even fully manifests into this world, its mandibles open wide and, with a an ear-piercing screech, a beam of light roars to life from its mouth and blazes over the battlefield, impacting a dome shield the infantry have on the ground which protects them. The beam shifts across the sky and cuts successfully through a number of gunships before a massive magnetic slug rockets through it at a speed totally transparent to the naked eye, totally evaporating its head as it collapses. Moments later, a thunderous boom is heard from across the skies sourcing from the flagship still in orbit. It periodically lets off more and more of the same shots, though presumably toward other targets, as the smaller bodies seem to pour over the corpse of the behemoth half-lodged in the rift in a parade of never ending bodies*

@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*

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Session>

*Pink lightning strikes nearby as suddenly, the rifts are blotted out with an endless oncoming swarm of humanoid-insect warriors, of all sorts of shapes and sizes, and many in the air but a few bound to the ground. The IA forces shred the initial swath with incredible efficiency as their massive firepower seems to be far more than enough to absolutely eviscerate all but the meatiest of the Kalsimer, but with time they forcibly push outward from the rift and remove the focal point that made them easy targets at first*

@Crew

*Any people left in their homes are completely unable to defend themselves from the horde, but I direct the planet's natural energies to avoid major population centers wherever possible*

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Session>

*In response to the depleting resource, the shimmering air at various points across the globe, in particular around surface Pools of Salubrity as well as major population centers, full-sized rifts manifest which themselves seem to eek out a low whir as they rest. The IA supersoldiers nearby take aim*

@Crew

*The sheer amount of energy required to sustain the state of the population quickly drains the pools, reaching their murky depths in mere seconds, while thunderstorms, tornados, and earthquakes rock the world*

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Session>

*The soldiers stop moving, weapons raised, and wait in the silence of the still air that follows*

@Crew

*Natural disasters begin to crop up throughout the globe as the natural energy reserves are depleted, only stifled by the pools draining to replace the damage done to the underlying forces of the planet itself*

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Session>

*A small group of gunships stop in their flight path and slowly descend on the very springs you reside in as this happens, hovering slowly over the ground as massive, hulking soldiers in mechanized armor leap from stories above the ground to their feet with innumerable loud bangs, deploying automated weaponry and various gadgets over a small patch of land*

@Crew

*As the ships descend, the projected nature energy does as well, carrying the people's burning metaphysical energies with it deep below the face of the planet, except those with the will and desire to resist, and particles spray up to fill the void left in each person's life energies and render them in the same comatose state as the trial patient*
