<Snipped quote by Legend>

I’m starting to be concerned about leaving the door open.

<Snipped quote by Audacious>

Should we—should I go back up and try to close it, do you think?

<Snipped quote by Legend>

Can we afford the time?

<Snipped quote by Audacious>

I can! You just, follow the signs that keep saying the classification level is increasing, you'll find it!
*Zips back the direction we came*

<Snipped quote by Legend>

*Whips my head around as you disappear*
I… Alright.
*Turns back around and continues to follow the path we were on*

<Snipped quote by The Odeoron>

*Weakly lifts an arm*
There's something... unnatural about this world...

<Snipped quote by Session>

Ben 4/9: *Shoots a ray of blinding red light in your heart aiming for your soul as you suddenly feel empowered and are divided in two exact copies of yourself* There, i projected my power in you temporarily!

Ben 5/9: It should help you resist this power.

<Snipped quote by The Odeoron>

*The left me twists my arm in a circle*
Yeah, that does it. Thanks Ben.
*Picks up a rock that seems interwoven with plant roots and previously melted on one side*
Now we just need to figure out where we are.

<Snipped quote by Session>

Ben 1/9: Hey... think with intent, doubles of you whenever you want to multiply, as long as i'm around you should be able to replicate... also... how the heck are you so chill about there being two of you?

Ben 7/9: *Splits reality as i literally strip the property of draining out of time and space and seal it in a quartz bottle* So this was a thing...

<Snipped quote by The Odeoron>

*The right me shrugs*
I dunno. It just doesn't feel that abnormal to me.
*The bottle starts by absorbing the sparkles, but quickly the rest of the world seems to be pulled in as well, including the souls and lives of the creatures below us, as if the draining had become foundational to the fabric of the world order*

<Snipped quote by Session>

Ben 9/9: It... you will see just how confusing it is when you re-combine... TRUST me!!
Ben 8/9: *Draws a complex geometrical rune as i sabotage the absorption*
Ben 3/9: Hey... there are two of you... that means double of your power...
Ben 2/9: And whatever madness is ruling over this world seems to think cannibalising its people is just peachy??!!?!

<Snipped quote by The Odeoron>

Left: Is that how that work—
*The world lurches to one side, and then the other*
What are you doing? What is it doing???

<Snipped quote by Session>

Ben 1/9: *Materializes a door*
Ben 6/9: This is our temporary way out... this is too much *proceeds to open it to the interdimensional tavern*
Ben 3/9: *As i begin to re-merge together* I don't think this world is worth it Ambition... we are dying here!!

<Snipped quote by The Odeoron>

Left: *With a fire in my eyes, punches a crater in the ground*
No! I will find Nomad, even if it kills this planet!

<Snipped quote by Session>

Ben 7/9: *Grabs right's arm and pulls you through the gateway as many of my copies though not all, merge together* Hey You need to calm DOWN! We can catch him when we have a better advantage!

Ben 8/9: Sideslash! We need help here!

<Snipped quote by The Odeoron>

*Holds on to the edges as the landscape starts to be pulled into the Tavern through massive gravitational forces*
Don't do this, Ben! This isn't your call to make!

<Snipped quote by Session>

Are you sure about this?? *I begin sliding your arm out* It is not my call, but it genuinely feels like you... we... will die here!

*My copies merge into the me that is in the tavern...*

<Snipped quote by The Odeoron>

We're closer than ever! I can feel that Nomad's on this layer!
*Pulls myself further through the portal*
If you're going to go through the trouble of killing an entire people, it shouldn't be for nothing!

<Snipped quote by Session>

*All of my copies go through the door and one of them manifests as i remain with you enough information has been sent through*

You know you are hopeless if you think dying is going to help you find your target!
