<Snipped quote by Melodious>

*The flesh on my face twists, and my eye implodes into mush*
Clearly.
*With a final push, a horizontal shaft cuts its way forward and ejects me, my body contorted in several locations, with the crystal close to me; a beacon of light bursts upward from me and my voice is amplified as the microdimension collapses behind me*
Crystal obtained. Send backup.
*Deactivates my ability everywhere in the dimension*
[/quote]

*The crystal, not long after its coloration dullens, begins to unpredictably absorb space around it, attempting to suck in reality, people, and everything indiscriminately at a gradually increasing rate*
And we will now claim what is ours, and soon reclaim the lost progress...
*Speaks relieved as I contort my manipulated Brinskpace to shield the gem, but not in a full sphere around it, allowing it to have its way with reality*
