Is he not concerned by this? It seems obvious.

@Fractured

He knows exactly what's happening, and definitely even knows it's me behind it, but he can't do anything at the moment.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Intrepid>

Does Graveny?

@Fractured

Not anymore.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Intrepid>

Yes. Prism Stream.

@Fractured

Sounds like a problem for another day. If we can’t rely on you for it like I imagined, I do have a means myself. I can’t trigger the traps anyway, as the entire facility recognizes me as friendly.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Intrepid>

Why do people keep saying that?

@Fractured

You are Prism, yes?

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Intrepid>

I can activate the traps easily enough, but I have no way to capture the power.

@Fractured

*Taps my chin*
I assumed with all your power you'd be able manipulate that of others easily enough.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Intrepid>

How would I do that?

@Fractured

The only way I know of is to trigger one of the traps scattered throughout the facility and capture the energy from them that is otherwise intended to kill.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Intrepid>

I can most certainly try.
*Manipulates the magic matrix around the corpse*
It's not as complex as it would be if they were the origin.

@Etcetera

I'm certain.
*Glances at the door to the room next to us*
There are a decent number of them in there.
*Pulls an empty vial from my pocket*
It would be ideal if it could be secured in here. I'll leave it to you, whether you'd rather go about it stealthily or all at once.
*Turns to Prism*
Think you can help secure the power we need?

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Intrepid>

Do you believe it would be more difficult to capture it as they die than to steal it from them alive?

@Etcetera

If anyone’s capable of it, you could recover it in much higher quantities with much less undead. Whether or not it’s easier depends on what you’re capable of.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Intrepid>

How is their retention prowess?

@Etcetera

Above average but much lower than with Graveny’s direct influence.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Intrepid>

*Places my hand to my chin*
If we eliminate large swaths of the army, perhaps we can capture their magic energy before it dissipates.

@Etcetera

Ripping the magic from them while they’re alive would efficiently capture the magic and eliminate the threats with much less effort, should that be something within anyone’s skillset.
