Some of us have more work cut out for us than others.
*Slices open a rift with my hand*
I'll be in touch.
*Steps through and leaves*

@Intrepid

*Nods*
Farewell. In the meantime...
*Looks at Sven and Kat*
Waternaux, do you know the status of your son?

As long as it can be agreed to be on the table, I believe we can all get to more pressing matters. Lots of destruction. Lots of casualties, and lots more exhausted.

@Intrepid

Agreed. We should care for the wounded.

The world isn't so fortunate to be so black and white as that, Sven. Truth be told, I have minimal interest in the power itself for personal reasons. I just feel it'd be such a waste- And, again, more dangerous to seal it permanently or attempt to destroy it.

@Intrepid

As long as we all agree that, at all costs, Nemid must not return, we can negotiate the steps in between.

This party in particular is not particularly reputable, I'm not sure if you know.

@Galaxy Raider

Better to end with the appearance of amicability than to destroy it at the first opportunity.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Source>

Coming to an agreement was never even a stretch, then. I agree wholly, even down to the point that the first course of action should be its study. It's not in any of our interests for today's events to have a sequel.

@Intrepid

I believe we can make arrangements that mutually benefit all parties, in that case.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Source>

And I was afraid I would be speaking to zero open minds. Glad to be proven wrong.

@Intrepid

Priority number one must be preventing Nemid from resurrecting. Priority number two must be removing Nemid as an entity. At that point, it becomes a sophisticated battery.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Source>

Dangerous because of the power it contains. An artifact with this much raw power has never existed- Could never exist before. He brought all this power from outside Existence into Existence, and on top of that absorbed a hefty chunk of Existence itself while he was here, which does not seem to have returned to us... I would argue that figuring out how to use it would be the least dangerous thing to do with it of all.

@Intrepid

<Snipped quote by Intrepid>

You can't—

@Legend

*Holds up my hand*
Perhaps we could come to an agreement.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Legend>

*Places my large mechanical hands around the sphere, studying it*
It hasn't existed long, so I don't blame you for not thinking about it. Have you thought about what it is that we have? This object right here, beyond being just a vessel for some great adversary.

@Intrepid

An object of unparalleled danger that should be destroyed.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Source>

An attempt to seal it?

@Galaxy Raider

If all goes according to plan. The size of this crystal is small enough for a container with the highest-order strength.

Myriad Reality

@Source I'm getting a feeling Alna has been inadvertently involved in something bigger than he realized.

@Dark Cloud

If he chooses to step deeper into the pool of corruption surrounded by the sea of ignorance.

What does that mean practically? Idk, but it sounds cool and edgy.
