[IC] Myriad Reality

[Valiance]

<Snipped quote by Valiance>

And your people haven’t discovered some way to stop it in the intervening years?

@System

Stopping it as in rendering it inoperable? Sure, that was done. The issue is there was never a concern for the creator to return from the dead and reclaim it.

@Valiance

Mm. And no means to remotely disable the system or track it, regardless of who chose to reactivate it?

There are worse fates than death. She's going to have to work through whatever it is that she just saw, and we do not want to be on the other side of that.

@Memory

Well that is some newfound side of you ain't it man? *I grin at your reaction, then i turn to the conversation between Gemini and Misty surprised*

So is this another one of your 'poppin' out of the void like it's nobody's business' type friends that is seemingly talking with Misty?

@System

It was also never expected to be uprooted and moved so readily. No, nothing of the sort. We can call it a combination of circumstances we thought impossible.

That’s Gemini, the man responsible for the way Misty is now. He’s normally dead, but... well, he’s more dangerous than she is. We’ll leave it at that.

@Valiance

I see. A worst-case scenario, then?

@Memory

*I stand crosseyed due to brain contorting confusion at the revelation 'normally dead'* Normally 'dead' huh... so does she have some Jesus juice flowing through her veins now? WATCH OUT!

*I shout as a brute is charging for you, and i immediately punch it's face revealing a lesser level of my powers as i punch it so hard i literally turn it inside out then it bursts into blazing fire shortly before turning to a small pile of ash*

RIGHT WHO'SE NEXT YOU FUCKERS?!

@System

A scenario so unfortunate that even preparations for the worst didn't foresee it count as great candidates for being called "worst case", I have to say.

*Ducks when it approaches*
Misty’s world is not so black and white. And the closer we get, the more her world is our world.

@Valiance

What other countermeasures did they prepare?

@Memory

Aight aight... i can jam with reality altering mojo... and here i thought i was the only freak who could contort reality to my own will due to this cube that never seems to leave me...

*January, Aria and Leon, begin hacking and slashing with lasers, fire and bullets at another giant mutant in the background*

Damn... no joke those are some peak sentinels right there... Kay let's do this, and find the psionic fucker... by the way... is the new dangerous dude going to be alright against psionic torment waves? he has no suit...

@System

We have the means to know when it might be used, due to the amount of energy it would need to generate to do what it does. A swift reactionary measure is all but inevitable.

@Shadrack Nor

I don’t think he “thinks” like we do. I also have no plans to go and ask.

@Valiance

And do you all have the means to respond in such a circumstance?

[Valiance]

<Snipped quote by Valiance>

@System

Responding to unaccounted for elemental anomalies is one of the primary jobs in the industry, you might say. I know you have some experience with that; the initial excursion to Garsun's Tower was one such mission.

@Memory

See... you say that, which concerns me... *I casually punch and invert another brute as we talk, and for a short while they even seem afraid and start backtracking in doubt at how brutal we are* Is he even on our side? or is he going to kill everyone here?

@Valiance

Are they prepared for an entity of Garsun’s caliber, who also knows he will be hunted once discovered?

@System

They're prepared. Garsun is a disgraced doyen from an era long past, but even if it turns out that his era was more capable than ours, he's only one master against many. If we're not ready for that, we were never going to be ready for it.

@Valiance

And if he activates the tower remotely?

[Valiance]

<Snipped quote by Valiance>

And if he activates the tower remotely?

@System

Then he won't be there to defend it when the cavalry arrives. Besides, the tower needs an operator. In terms of functionality, it has to have an operator like a pilot in the cockpit of a plane. I suppose he could always change that, but I don't see why he would do that.
