<Snipped quote by Artifact>

No one needs to ask me to protect those I care about. Nobody asked Roland to hold a grudge after years of not knowing how things changes. This is all unfortunate circumstance, and I am asking both of you to walk away.

@Galaxy Raider

He was fully prepared to accept the consequences of his actions before you decided to meddle in this.

<Snipped quote by Artifact>

No no. You will be giving up. I know you’re a good person outside these circumstances, so I trust that you do see something in the genocidal one here. I want to trust her guidance to you, so I’d hate to have to pursue justice of my own.
*Squats down next to both of you*
Understand what I’m saying?

@Galaxy Raider

You're the only one intervening here. Nobody asked you to come.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Artifact>

I recommend going home. Forget about Ridge until you’re ready to move on.

@Galaxy Raider

That's not very well up to me.

<Snipped quote by Artifact>

… I won’t be giving up, that’s certain.

@Valiance

So what's the immediate decision? I'm going to support whatever you decide to do.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Artifact>

I’m fine. The blows we traded, he regenerates, I can’t. But… You went out of your way to not kill me.

@Valiance

What are you going to do next?

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Artifact>

I’m thankful that I’m enough.
*Drops you*
Ridge was given a second chance and has made the more of it than anyone could ask. You will not hunt him or his brother down any more.

@Galaxy Raider

...
*Cuts my eyes over to Roland*

<Snipped quote by Artifact>

*Clutches a large slash wound as I pull myself to one knee, covered in more stab and projectile wounds*

@Valiance

Roland! Are you going to survive this?

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Artifact>

*Grabs your arms and rips them off me, holding them in place while I headbut you so hard that spacetime implodes at the point of impact*
Slow yourself and look. We’re done here, already.

@Galaxy Raider

*Golden light encapsulates me and immediately goes to work on my injuries*
What are you?

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Artifact>

*Just before your recovery point, I knock you down further by plummeting feet-first into your abdomen*

@Galaxy Raider

*Curls forward around your legs and holds on tightly, infusing my aura into your body every moment*

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Artifact>

*With a visible twinkle and a resonant boom, I go rocketing passed you and crash into a large chunk of intact earth below*

@Valiance

*While getting knocked back, blasts a golden ray into your internals, while cushioning Roland with golden light with at the expense of my own landing*

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Artifact>

*Thrusts my other hand forward and grasps your face with intense crushing force, locking the grip and refusing to let go*

@GalaxyRaider

*Grabs your arm with two hands and used the close proximity to snap it in half backwards at the elbow*

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Artifact>

*A hardlight shield shimmers over me as the attack gleams off of it. Fire flares from beneath my feet as I blink from my position to yours, slashing diagonally through your chest*

@GalaxyRaider

*Collides your slash with my open palm, which resists being pierced*

<Snipped quote by Artifact>

*Across the planet's landscape, loud booms can be heard as Roland and I clash, breaking the entirety of the ground into finer and finer rubble with each blow and causing the vortexes to kick up and scatter the rubble at insane velocities all over the place*

@Galaxy Raider

I don't have time for this.
*Lifts my hand, summoning a trunk of holy light that highlights the CAD-VI with a golden aura—a volley of crimson red spears pursue the aura and home in on its location*
