<Snipped quote by Melodious>

I am far from eternal. I'm under no illusion that I might perish here.

@Source

It is good to understand that. Others here might not be so grounded.
*The spacial dimension the fighting seemed to be taking place in for a brief moment collapses inward far enough that you phase out of it as its boundary passes you, returning you into the normal dimension, looking in this one*

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Melodious>

For the moment?

@Source

Unlike you, or really anyone else from this very reality, I am truly eternal. On a far more... Conceptual, foundational level. Should the results of this impede me for now, everyone can rest easy knowing that I will not truly be going anywhere. You, on the other hand...
*Stops talking as the coalescence begins to pull at my form and drag it toward it like vapor from a cloud*

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Melodious>

*Looks into the new constructs and moves closer toward Sven and Nemid*

@Source

*The space itself begins to collapse more and more quickly, with crystal dust spiraling in and coalescing into a central point and draws my form in as well*
This may feel anticlimactic for you, as we discover the fruits of this labor together. Best case is nothing happens to you at all, for the moment.
*Caresses a galactic formation as it glides over my palm*

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Melodious>

*Adjusts my cloak near my face as I check my remaining strength*

@Source

*The expanded, comparatively microscopic formation of space around us slowly begins to move closer together now*

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Melodious>

*Glances around*
...

@Source

*Drifts slowly to a stop in space after things let up*

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Revolutionary>

*Grunts*
Robots.
*Keeps going at roughly the same speed as before*

@Source

*As you approach, it and the "fight" becomes clearer, it can be seen that Sven isn't doing much more than pummeling me around as I do not fight back, or even make an effort to do so*

<Snipped quote by Melodious>

Being conscripted to fight on your behalf against our will. Knowingly or otherwise.

@Source

I am-

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Melodious>

Compared to self-preservation, all other perspectives are irrelevant.

@Source

Preservation from what?

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Melodious>

I doubt your capability to comprehend Existence's perspective.

@Source

I've been in those shoes and lived that life before. The opposite, in your case, is untrue. I think it's much more likely to be you who fails to understand ours.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Melodious>

The enslavement of Existence is a great concern of mine.

@Source

And despite my continued assertions that that is not the case, it's the word so many of you seem to cling to. If you believe being part of something at no cost is slavery, then I'm sure none of you have experienced it truly.
