The War of the Three

Ananta

A call had rang out across the Nexus, and by all accounts it had gone unheeded by most.

Yet it brought the Naga to pause, the startled yelps of the children astride her unheeded as she considered the prospect. It was true she'd come to the Nexus for a reason, but it seemed she was neither needed or suited to this place anyway, as Graf Dakka had well shown in the battle she'd participated in. And neither her lady Shiva or the Eel had called upon her services, so perhaps they would not mind if she explored a different avenue.

Besides, she had a few eons of vacation days saved up. May as well put them to use.

"Alright children. Climb aboard." Ever the care giver, she saw no reason to just leave the motley assortment of children in this dimension. Celestia was truly the best of the Triumvirate for them to congregate, but a realm outside was even better. Her body whipped around the park with Ashura arms outstretched, plucking up the children as they giggled in innocent obliviousness. This aroused concern in the pair of nuns now rising to respond to burst of motion, only to be swept off their feet along with the rest and carried off to a universe unmarred by the baleful laughter of thirsting gods.

"Fantastic..." Ananta remarked as she glimpsed the cosmos sprawl out before them, the Nexus expanding to it's full grandeur and shrinking with distance in the span of a blink. Stars were not points but streaks of light and the eye was drawn every which way, till motion lost all meaning and the minds of children could hold no hope of comprehending the blur of transit, though if she were to look closely she'd have seen an arc of light denouncing the Valkyrie Hildr's own transit to the happy verse, yet when she finally arrived in the world of cats she was already gone for parts unknown.

"Hmm, what an odd place." She said as cats walked down streets and operated motor vehicles with the same ease as those who looked to have come from the Nexus already, an assortment of seeming pacifists who Ananta could only summarize had received the same offer as she had long ago, or this world had developed along a similar path up to a point.

"Don't run off kids!"

She turned and found her passengers rapidly dismounting, the natural curiosity of children pulling them off in every direction with their caretakers in hot pursuit. At least she wouldn't be wanting for work in this new world.

Fazzer was a bit rushed when he posted. You may have noticed Clean didn't acknowledge a time skip.

We like to think he spent all night hacking away at a Roc and everyone else had to listen to him shouting at the dead bird while they tried to sleep.

EDIT: Just presume he ran up and joined the scout group after the fact.

Meh. It's an easier way to manage people in one place.

That being said, here is the Official War Discord.

@TheWindel

You should put that on the intro post for reference sake.

@KoL

Damn it KoL. I was banking on you onstinantly refusing to back up Discord. Why can't you support my hermeticism?!

@The 42nd Gecko

Most Vassals tend to play around when they ever bother to fight- barring Iona who is something of an avid fanatic of combat when her blood gets pumping- so odds are good it wouldn't even occur to Juno to do something so overwhelming to end the fight outright.

I'll go post in the happy verse later today or tomorrow.

The War of the Three

@TheWindel ...interesting. If you don't mind my asking, is there any particular reason this is so? I can think of a few creative ways that one could use the Golden Eyes to one's advantage beyond simply nuking anything in your path, myself.

@BCTheEntity

It stems from the fact that Golden Eyes hold domain over forces of Destruction, whereas Silver Eyes have a more broad use in Creation. Golden eyes can make an explosion, but Silver eyes could make the gun. Additionally and more readily useful is that Silver eyes can be used to heal wounds as they are made for near instantaneous regeneration.

It's the diversity of use in creating tools, structures, weapons, and in healing yourself that make it superior to the pure destructive power of Golden Eyes.

@Bushman501

Since she uses extreme close range weapons, fire would tend to preclude any meaningful contribution outside of throwing detritus and debris at the monster.

Though if she linked up with Szeren then she could take the paralyzing poison and use it on her crossbow. Even if it only makes a limb sluggish, it would still make targeting and debilitating it easier to overcome if it wasn't rampaging like a Deathclaw.

War Notes

@Leotamer@Bushman501

I would just like to point out this is a bloodthirsty monster spawned of the darkness seeping from a tattoo, and is most certainly a magical creation of some sort? Expecting things to work by the surety of realities rules in regards to cells and the perceived effectiveness of fire is something of a wasted effort.

In short, fire is not the answer you think it to be.

War Notes

@Bushman501

Possible. She could feasibly get off constant sneak attacks if other explosions and stuff draw it's attention.
