I don't doubt it. He's my mentor, after all.
*Clears my throat*
So ES just has that level of control and output, huh? It's good to know at least. I'll get more info from the General later about him. But about you...

@Stratocracy

He didn't show any hint of doing something weird. Just pointed his arm at the ground for a bit and there it went.
*Groans*
Is this the part where you execute me? Just make it quick.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Session>

Right. But did you see how he did it? How he just triggered the huge flare up and accelerated everyone to their death instantly, assuming there even was one? And the name “Raguel”. It came from said cultists?

@Stratocracy

I wish it was something that straightforward—he was just standing there, and people started dropping like flies. And yeah, the cultists called him Raguel. The General put up a good fight, he really did.

<Snipped quote by Session>

I can't talk to Calvin, and you were the only other person who was even able to see what happened. So... What happened? Was it ES himself? More lackeys?

@Stratocracy

The other cultists got wiped out 'cept for their head guy. He did something to boost his muscles, but lost the war of attrition. The good General tried his true hardest, but couldn't beat Raguel in the end.

<Snipped quote by Session>

Of course. It was part of the deal. A deal which, as far as my own discretion is concerned, was technically fulfilled. Assuming the info others gave me is accurate.

@Stratocracy

So what else is there? I'm afraid I'm not much more useful to you past this point.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Session>

Of course. You have somewhere you're expected to be afterward, right?

@Stratocracy

*Leans back*
Am I? In theory, I'm a free man once this is all said and done.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Session>

Well, firstly, are you okay? Physically.

@Stratocracy

As physically as I can be. I'm burnt and stuck here, but won't be forever.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Session>

Zero, of course. But it's important for the sacrifice to have meaning. It makes it... Easier to swallow.

@Stratocracy

*Sits up*
Alright, I won't waste a pretty lady's time moping. What do you need from me?

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Session>

If I had to find a silver lining?
*Thinks for only a brief moment*
ES has put his capabilities on the radar. We're more aware of an enemy, so we can prepare better for if we ever encounter this scenario again.

@Stratocracy

How many lives is that worth?

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Session>

*Maintains a stern yet empathetic tone*
If that is someone you met here, then no.

@Stratocracy

*Looks up at you*
Did you all get anything good out of this?

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Session>

No one knew what was happening from the onset. You can't be blamed for this. ES has never shown this sort of ability before even to parties that know him well.
*Squats down next to you*
None of you could have been ready, and none of you could have known.

@Stratocracy

*Sighs*
Not even Rea, huh?
