Then you're not a stranger to things falling apart at the last moment, are you?

@Nimda

You could say that. Last moment or not.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Valiance>

How are you not angry about this? All of that effort, and you're just... steady?

@Nimda

Getting upset over it doesn’t accomplish anything. Besides, complications arising from an operation that need dealt with is more common than not.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Valiance>

I was led to believe it would be. This time.

@Nimda

Well, now we know. And we can better attack the threat next time.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Valiance>

You anticipated this? All of it?

@Nimda

Not specifics, no. But with a powerful entity like that? Would be hard to believe things would be so straightforward.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Valiance>

It's not about the—
*Pinches the bridge of my nose*
Okay, it is about the house. But the rest of this is my fault. I should have known there would be a catch.

@Nimda

I knew something would happen. You have nothing to apologize for.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Valiance>

...I'm sorry.

@Nimda

It’s not you. It’s the volume of traffic suddenly going through here.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Valiance>

Then I will leave you to it. Best of luck.

@Etcetera

Chickpea, we’re definitely moving after this.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Valiance>

I'm afraid the answer to both questions is no. The half-dragon must rely on her own power, and at best, you will have delayed the unknowable's awakening by some amount of time. Perhaps forever, perhaps a day.

@Etcetera

Here’s to it being closer to the longer half if that spectrum.

<Snipped quote by Valiance>

Then I expect great things from you three.
*Shifts my eyes toward Faering*
Including the self-proclaimed enemy of my kind.

@Etcetera

That sounds like a conversation ender, but I have two questions. First, is Faering free to use your power for the task ahead? And second, after taking down the heralds, will the beast slumber for eternity for certain?

<Snipped quote by Nimda>

*Clears my throat*
Moving forward, you have a small window to correct this misstep. Or risk bringing about the end of the world.

@Etcetera

A challenge I’m willing to accept.
