<Snipped quote by Melodious>

*It attempts to force-integrate it as a module into a larger system that incorporates Brinkspace*

@System

*Whether by some higher power or an indistinguishable property, the crystal remains anchored to me and my presence, in our current state*

<Snipped quote by Melodious>

You're not going to get away with this. You'll lose in the end.

@Webmaster

I wasn't lying when I told that moron over there that it's been over. This isn't a fight of whether I get Existence or not, it's a fight for us to make this as painless for you all as possible. Drop the barriers.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Melodious>

*It continues to attempt to corrupt the makeup of the crystal, inject data, and integrate it into another construct*

@System

*Remains stalwart as it does, totally unafraid of it being able to do any real damage. The crystal seems to occupy space that consists heavily of Brinkspace more than pure space*

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Melodious>

What about me?
*Shakes my head*

@Webmaster

You sealed off the battlefield. Wanted us divided.
*Floats toward you*
Like your odds now?

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Melodious>

*Once the entire surface is covered by blue squares of data, they begin glowing like before and turn inward, attempting to analyze, break down, and inject rogue data into the crystal*

@System

*Nothing else about the crystal seems immediately discernable, but the outer layer of the crystal seems to be absolutely immutable and impenetrable*

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Melodious>

*Traces of blue data materialize on top of the crystal based on the analysis of its surface, slowly expanding as it crunches the associated data*

@System

*Scatters the remains like dust to the winds in space, then looks to Melody again*
And you.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Melodious>

*The Beast Over drops and I stare you in the face*
Disengage all protocols. Analyze foreign mystery data.
*My remaining data dissolves into voxels, resulting in a spinning blue rhombohedron that shines a sterile blue light brightly around it; the light breaks down and analyzes all data that can be derived from the crystal relative to its existence in this dimension*

@System

*The crystal acts as a container for both power and knowledge in one, and is incredibly durable*
You see now?
*Grabs the rhombohedron in my hand*
If you live, don't come back. Killing someone so noble would be a travesty.
*Crushes the object, shattering it in my hand*

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Melodious>

*An explosive force rebounds from the collision, utterly destroying anything nearby and annihilating the lower half of my body; the reduced mass increases my speed and I try to use what's left of my wings to maneuver myself into your head*

@System

*Looks toward Melody to direct my speech toward her*
It's over.
*The crystal, on contact with you, reveals a cascade of knowledge in the brief moment you contact it, including that my goal is to reduce Existence's will to oppose its absorption, an intangible network of sorts is already established to complete the process of absorption, that I feel genuine regret for killing anyone, and that my people natively had no concept for death, let alone experienced it, all in one instantaneous flood of information transfer. In this moment, I grab your face to stop you and shove a hand through your chest*

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Melodious>

*My vision glows a deep red, almost obscuring my view of the battlefield; I twist myself in mid-air, corkscrewing into the force before sacrificing a battlechip and channeling its power into my speed and talons, maintaining the spiral into your head at the fastest speed I can reach*

@System

You lost!
*The omnidirectional spread of the force suddenly shifts, as it takes on a more funneled and concentrated output directly into you. Inducing what would effectively be a sensory overload for all senses, I ride along this channel of power and meet you on your path, clotheslining you in your hip with all the momentum both of us have accumulated at the same time in an attempt to cleave you in half from sheer force*

Myriad Reality

Calus: I'm not here to answer questions.

*the crystalline material still exposed in the area becomes gelatinous, then solidifies into sharp, elongated, clawlike crystals*

I'm here to test your limits. And my own.

*they begin to rip through you violently*

@souleaterfan320

*They find themselves harmlessly tearing straight out of my body due to my gaslike bodily form*
