Why don't you just do it yourself, if you're as strong as you think you are?

@Nimda

I have my own world to rebuild after your previous antics.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Etcetera>

How quickly?

@Valiance

You have time. The vassals must first be awoken themselves by the fragments of the endless one. This map will reflect the change when the time comes.

A folly begetting what consequences?

*Begrudgingly opens it up*

@Nimda

*Six locations are burned onto dimensions surrounding the dragon's like bolts of lightning*
You've begun the awakening, and its consciousness has spread to the surrounding area. Unless its vassals are put to slumber, they will move to reawaken the true entity.

@Valiance

The map.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Nimda>

If it’s still alive then its influence is still out there, but if it’s dead then it’s not. Seems simple enough to verify and foolish to lie about.

<Snipped quote by Etcetera>

The next time we simply find a more vital point to attack.

@Valiance

Perhaps such a point exists. Perhaps not. But your folly was to disturb its slumber.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Etcetera>

You expect us to take your word for it?

@Nimda

I tried more than once to tell you the reality of your missteps. But you resisted.

Myriad Reality

*Nods*
It did feel easier than it ought to have been.

@Valiance

The true scale of your prey is beyond the confines of that dimension. It instead, occupies several.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Etcetera>

She can share on her own behalf if she likes. My business is no business of yours.

@Valiance

Then perhaps you should have trusted your own intuition. That force that you encountered, if it can indeed be compared to something knowable, was not the entity you sought. As much as it can be understood, what you saw today was akin to a cell in your body, not its heart. And the defenses, its immunities.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Etcetera>

Are you asking?

@Valiance

<Snipped quote by Etcetera>

The worst of your kind?

@Nimda

*Responds with a subtle hint of bitterness*
What you’ve accomplished is a pinprick of a pinprick. In that respect, yes. I am asking what your purpose was today.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Etcetera>

*Scowls*
We killed that thing. What else?

@Nimda

“That thing” being?
