<Snipped quote by Galaxy Raider>

*It stops on a thin coat of amaranthine around my armor*

As am I.

*Kicks you squarely in the chest with incredible strength, flinging you into a nearby rock. I launch towards you with flickering speed, and attempt to spearhead you through the sternum with an amaranthine coated blade tip*

You all are a vicious lot, that is certain. Always to battle. I only fight when It's necessary.

@souleaterfan320

*Digs my feet into the ground and stops my momentum just before hitting the rock, sidestepping the spear then leaping into the air*
This is necessary. I'm just choosing to defend myself now as opposed to when you come for me, and maybe spare the souls you'd have cleaved through along the way.
*Slashes through the air from above, not seeming to do any extravagant motion or giving off any sort of blast, but the slash very precisely cuts through your position and though the entire world as well, cleaving it in half perfectly cleanly*

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Galaxy Raider>

*the force reverberates through my armor, and my arm instinctively raises up, and I direct it toward you, firing the kinetic energy from your attack back at you in the form of an energy blast*

@souleaterfan320

*It reverberates along a very clear shape around me and I grin*
Sorry, I'm armed.
*A camouflage field drops and reveals the armor I am wearing, and I materialize blade in my hand, slashing it through you diagonally as it forms*

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Galaxy Raider>

*Follows the momentum of the rock with the tip of my spear, using the momentum to sling it back at you whilst coating it in amaranthine to harden it beyond the strength of vibranium*

@souleaterfan320

*The moment the tip of your spear contacts the pebble, I disappear from where I stand, reappearing in that very instant in motion to planting a kick directly into the underside of your chin with force enough to turn the air to plasma and eject it from the atmosphere into the stars*

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Galaxy Raider>

by all means, then. Strike me down where I stand. You insult me and the amaranthine mission. You say I fought your daughter without proper reason. I have tried to reason with you, you foreited that notion.

@souleaterfan320

*Points up the the lasers' source in the sky*
Like I said, I know your functionality.
*Picks up a pebble and flicks it into you at a speed that would hurl the planet into the sun if it struck the earth*

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Galaxy Raider>

Forcing Me to make the first move? I think not. I was a soldier long before the amaranthine, I'll have you know.

@souleaterfan320

I'm an efficient fighter. I would make the first move if it would matter, but like I said, I know how you function. Done my homework.
*Cracks my neck*
I wouldn't bother with this pointless monologue toward you if I could have struck a blow first.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Galaxy Raider>

you know that isn't possible. On with the violence, then. I suppose it can't be avoided.

@souleaterfan320

*Raises my hands*
I know how you function. Make the move.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Galaxy Raider>

that does depend. Do you wish combat with me?

@souleaterfan320

My preference is for you to take me to King and then keel over, but I know you won't do that.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Galaxy Raider>

You do understand the threat of death means nothing to those of Amaranthine, correct? Conventional weapons, like you laser above, are functionally useless in combat against us. A minor distraction, if anything.

@souleaterfan320

Yes, I am just wasting resources by keeping a weapon focused on you when it's clearly doing nothing. I take it this means that you're done with the phase where you attempt to justify things?

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Galaxy Raider>
*you can hear a dissappointed sigh from under my armor*

You still have a choice. You can still choose right from wrong. I'll afford you one last chance. Save you and your daughter. Alethia, your daughter's counterpart, holds the same memories. She wishes to see you. Join us, and we can be family instead of being enemies.

@souleaterfan320

*Walks slow laps around the laser occupying your position*
That poor soul feels lost, I imagine. Ripped from an identity that should be hers.
*Leans down and picks up a small piece of rubble*
I’m an agent of creation. I want no part of any family that does this.
*Drops it*
The only way you leave in one piece is by taking me to King so I can deal with him personally.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Galaxy Raider>

*it rips through me as if I weren't actually there*

Sven... I'd advise against combat. I wish not to leave your daughter without her father.

@souleaterfan320

*They stay fixated upon your position continuously*
Don’t pretend coming for me wasn’t an inevitability. I know your collective and your intentions, if you had your way I’d be doomed at your whim regardless.
*Drops down from the pile of rubble I rest on*
I’m dealing with you on my terms. Not yours.
