((Here I was in the middle of a massive post when I realized I'd missed BB's post. Doh.)) The Ambassador had been about to make a witty remark, perhaps do some wordplay, and then engage the enemy. He'd had an entire plan, based on using their requirement for acknowledgement. It had been quite complex, and the Ambassador had been quite proud of how he had devised it, without aid from the Overmind or Stein. A critical part of it, of course, was harnessing the Void in a useful manner, chanelling the remnants of Omega, and use the Witches' ignorance against them. Then, of course, before he could do any of that, they simply disappeared in a puff of smoke. Goddamnit. The Ambassador closed his mouth, and simply sighed. A rapid burst of weaponsfire wiped out the remaining goats, then the ammo was recovered. The full force once more was removed from the area, the Anti-Gods placed back into their coffers. The Ambassador was no longer needed in the area, and he would retreat back to the laboratory to await his next assignment. With this, the Ambassador disappeared. ---------- "If you refer to the hive beneath the city, they will be exterminated soon enough." Gaia was tired of the small robots causing problems for him, and he would wipe them all out as soon as he was done dealing the the Dinobots. "Now, if you attack once more, I shall be forced to go onto the offensive." The Sliver of Creation was quite certain that he could defeat the robots if he had to, based on the fact they only possessed physical attacks, which couldn't kill him. -------- Far above the surface of the planet floated a massive space station, many times the size of almost any other man made structure. It was Yggdrasil, the Pillar of Absolute Might, the flagship of the Interdimensional Rule of the God Emperor Matt, armed with weaponry and technology far beyond the capabilities of any other technologically advanced race, save perhaps a few. It was the ultimate accomplishment of a mad scientist who aspired to spread the entirety of reality under a single rule, a single law, a single, absolute justice that would control all. Had the ship not been negating it's own gravitational pull temporarily, it's mere presence, matching the orbit of the planet, would have caused the planet to be ripped apart. It would be visible in the sky, blocking out the sun, covered in billions of turrets and weapons systems. It was the testament to the might that had taken down Gods and Demons, Old Ones and Legends, any who would stand before the God Emperor turned to dust. Even the Nine Immortals had bowed after their dimension had been ripped apart in a single strike from the God Emperor's fist. Of course, that was when he had been at full power. Thousands of small pieces fell from Ygdrassil, high in the sky, crashing towards the forest below. Pillars of unknown material flew through the sky, burning in the atmosphere, a screeching flame ripping over their unyielding exterior as they crashed through the atmosphere like a rain of pillars, spearheads from space. And as each pillar, fifty meters high, made a sundering impact into the soil of the forest, the tremors caused the Earth itself to shake. Massive steel obelisks, taller even than the largest giant, forming a network over the entire planet, landing in the sea, in the forest, in the mountains. Like guided missiles, aiming for predestined locations, they landed, always the right way up, standing tall, each of them an extension of Ygdrassil itself. The pillars broke open, revealing thousands upon thousands of round disks, the size of a man, within. Each shot out, flying under it's own power, utilizing antigrav engines to warp the very force of the planet itself. Spreading over the surface of the planet like ants, the workforce of the titan, razorsharp monomolecular blades slicing through trees and structure alike as the planet is flattened. Mountains are moved, structures broken down, as the worker drones break down everything in their path in a radius around the pillars, clearing the area. Several fly above, as an announcement can be heard covering the entire planet. "Citizens of the planet below! You have been honored to be added to the empire of the Interdimensional Rule. You will be blessed with eternal peace, the removal of disease, and absolute justice. I shall absolve those sins that rot the human heart, soul and mind. You shall have freedom to live, but not to harm, and you shall work towards the greater purpose of eternal peace. Forever after now, your lives are to the goal of the greater good, and your deaths shall be as well. I, the God Emperor, bring you all that is necessary for the perfect existence. I bring you Utopia!" Sattelites had already started orbiting the planet, as the drones interacted with those within it, Any normal population on the world would soon be subjugated in the name of peace, their weaponry destroyed. However, in return, these same drones began building medical facilities and sustainable energy sources, rebuilding the planet in the image of a tyrant's utopia. A world where freedom is moot, as technology is introduced to those in the world, far beyond their era. Among the varied beings in a single forest, on the face of a single planet, only one had seen this before, Bob. It was the absolute rule of Matt's Empire.
