Assuming this goes to the death without our say, will you be ready to make the most of it?

@Valiance

I’m beyond ready.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by System>

*Grabs at the air and swipes to the side above me, the path the javelins aimed at me being adjusted enough to land away. I grip the air as though holding a ball, and slowly compress it until my fist is clenched*
Faering…

@Valiance

<Snipped quote by Valiance>

*Points with my finger and shoots a concentrated beam of golden light directly at you*

@System

*Takes to the sky and smothers it with an armored claw, glowing red-hot in the process*
Let’s take him out!

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by System>

*Whirls around, maintaining my grip through the attack and slamming you full-body into a wall that didn’t seem to exist before, and still doesn’t*

@Valiance

*Approaches from the other side and whaps my fist against the back of the barrier*

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Valiance>

*The force ejects me from beneath the ground, and I immediately follow the attack with a golden beam aimed at each of your heads*

@System

*Instinctually bends backwards to avoid the attack, and then kicks off the ground toward you at blinding speed*

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Artifact>

I should hope you would know.

@Valiance

Your fairy has a soul?

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Artifact>

Seems like there’s bo interest in talking, but I assume that comment was about you.

@Valiance

Who’s number four, though?

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Valiance>

*The impact is soft and knocks me below ground as if it were water*

@System

*Cranes my neck as my pupils constrict*
I have no idea who this guy is.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Artifact>

*Stops as well for the moment and nods*
I said before that we share more in common than you’d imagine… But we’ll discuss it more later. We need to find someone suitable. I just don’t know what kind of society or culture exists here.

@Valiance

It was busier last time I was here.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Artifact>

*Blinks*
I’m not doing all this just to target you afterward. I’m sharing my pain. The ones responsible for my curse have been found.

@Valiance

*Stops walking*
...
*Turns fully to face you*
I owe you. And once this is done, I can pay that debt.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Artifact>

The best thing you can do with a curse, is make sure those responsible are shown justice, and then to hold it tightly. Never be the reason someone else feels as you do, or you’re no better than what you call dirt.
*Straightens my shoulders*
The “justice” part is what I hope to do when we leave here finally. To tell you where we’re going.

@Valiance

*Glances toward you and meets your eyes*
If you’re going to kill me, save us the trouble and do it now. I don’t like playing games.
