<Snipped quote by Legend Begins>

Dyklothiath Derbyloth: I take it this is resisting arrest you criminal scum?! *Proceeds to shoot from the weapon, and surprisingly nothing comes out of the blast, but your shield simply seizes to be* Oh... i guess i must have missed the part where such a weapon actually shoots something ey? *Looks down its barrel seemingly not even paying attention at you two anymore*

@The Monitor 2

*After the cloud disappears a void pit is left in its wake and, Phoebe is nowhere to be found*
...
*Wanders away into the city*

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Legend Begins>

I was thinking so too. Was hoping for a reason to think otherwise.

Dyklothiath Derbyloth: *Suddenly appearing out of a sleek cyberpunk hover-car that looks like police comes out holding what looks like an intricate weapon of sorts* Hold up trespassers! You crossed the border of this planet without prior permissions! You need to come with me now!

@The Monitor 2

What are you getting out of following us??
*An opaque purple cloud rolls in and covers us all*

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Legend Begins>

Do you think he's still watching?

@Stratocracy

I do... And will continue to.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Legend Begins>

It’ll be easier to do now that I have a moment to think.

@Stratocracy

*Nods with compassion*
Catch your breath. Do what you need to do.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Legend Begins>

*Peeks after a moment and opens one eye first before opening the other*
Oh.

@Stratocracy

This place is, on some level, real. We need to go deeper if we want to find Eclipse.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Legend Begins>

*Leaves my eyes closed*

@Stratocracy

*When you open them, we've returned to the city, now completely rebuilt and again dull*

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Legend Begins>

*Looks out over the horizon of horrors, then reaches out and closes my eyes while grabbing the staff*

@Stratocracy

*Both of us stream through the glowing gemstone, and a few moments later, the staff falls to the ground amidst the broken land, now a plain stick again*

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Legend Begins>

*Ground fissure in the rock under your feet suddenly closes as if it was never there and you feel it stopped talking or paying you all any specifically individual attention as it returned to its mind rupturing nature and may not even see you anymore*

@The Monitor 2

...Okay. That works.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Legend Begins>

Dyklothiath Derbyloth true form: *Bubbling reorganizes in half comprehensible words then they become fully comprehensible again* Ah... because she's my meal, a true fruit from a garden beyond that not only pushed an entire realm of my arch nemesis into my jaws, but then proceeded to launch herself in here too... i protect my meals from future ones... that said... you feel tasty too *Cackles echoingly among the impossible geometry in the horizon*

@The Monitor 2

What about a wager? A bet?

<Snipped quote by Legend Begins>

We have a number of memories. Not the least of which being her memory of Joel and I’s shenanigans a little bit ago…

@Stratocracy

Channel those memories into the staff. If she's close, it can light the way.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Legend Begins>

I’m counting on you.

@Stratocracy

*Lifts my staff high and peers through its purple gemstone*
Do you have anything you and Eclipse remember each other by? Or some kind of shared memory? Something like a Lullaby you both know?
