*Stands above a veritable wall of biomechanical dragonoids, chewing through asteroid bodies in their wake*

@Artifact

*Looks up and down it, taking in the scale of the operation, but says nothing*

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Valiance>

*The area is completely dead, except for subtle reverberations from an immeasurable distance away*

@Webmaster

*Looks off in that direction*
Hm.
*Glances back in everyone else’s direction for a moment, then blasts off toward the reverberations*

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Valiance>

That's the biggest concern, but the lack of... well, anything is unusual.

@Webmaster

Let me scout around quickly then, before something does happen.
*Disappears in a moment, zipping around the region in a spiral going outward, looking for anything*

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Valiance>

What do you have in mind?

@Webmaster

Well, I can quickly peruse the region manually for stuff. But I’m concerned if this isn’t the location of some place, but rather some event that hasn’t started.

<Snipped quote by Etcetera>

Does anyone have an easy way to look for things?

@Webmaster

Depends on what kinds of things.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Melodious>

*The portal closes with a me on the other side, standing on a slab of magic with artificial gravity and oxygen amidst an eerily empty space devoid of stars, planets, or life*

@Webmaster

Here we are. The winning zone. We feel like winners yet?

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Valiance>

That'll do.
*Splits into two, and one disappears, while I stay behind and punch a button on the device, spawning a portal*

@Webmaster

I’ll lead the way, if that’s alright.
*Marches through*

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Valiance>

*Takes a device out of my pocket and punches a few buttons*
Just say the word.

@Webmaster

The word.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Valiance>

I'm not sold on it being that important just yet.

@Webmaster

I’m not sold on it being unimportant.

<Snipped quote by Valiance>

That's why all of you are helping me?

@Etcetera

It’d better be some real good strategery, since I can’t stategery my way around secrets very well myself. We just about ready?

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Valiance>

*Sighs*
She's always like this.

@Webmaster

If it’s really that important, I’m not going to stop her.

<Snipped quote by Valiance>

Responsible, no. But it's strategery for certain.

@Etcetera

But I sure hope you have some strategery for whatever’s waiting for you as well.
