That takes a lot of confidence. I’ll give you credit for that much.

@Artifact

It being a trap just means Revellyn is here. Or Ruari, almost as good.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Valiance>

I suppose you’ve also considered that this whole planet is probably a trap.

@Artifact

Yes. And if it’s a trap, that means it’s exactly where I want to be.

<Snipped quote by Valiance>

Then you have nothing to worry about, honestly. As long as you can get a handle on whatever his world bending can do.

*We leave the side of town where business thrives and enter a more residential zone. Several individual houses are spaced throughout, with more space being given to a gated manor a ways down the street*
Hopefully it would be so easy.

<Snipped quote by Valiance>

You’ve been doing the same thing all these years. I’d hope someone on your level who could take me on could also kill whoever this target is.

@Artifact

My people are naturally inclined to strength. And while I will humbly call myself above average, I would wager that everyone who survived our genocide is as well.

<Snipped quote by Valiance>

Do you expect to be killed here?

@Artifact

I have no expectations. But that’s because I don’t know how powerful he’s become. The potential danger is endless.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Valiance>

I hope your determination is enough.

@Artifact

*Nods*
A manipulator of reality itself is no small enemy. I just want to iterate again that I did not expect you to come. And you absolutely do not owe me your life to the point you need to throw it away.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Valiance>

You think you have good odds, despite all that?

@Artifact

I’ve spent my entire life preparing to bring exactly two men to justice. I don’t consider odds, but no matter what they are, it’s my purpose.

There’s no way he could make some kind of anti-you for an easy win?

@Artifact

*Steps up onto the sidewalks and looks up at a bakery sign*
No. But he could probably do much worse than that. I’m not sure how much his abilities have grown in the past decades, but we were both kids back then.

<Snipped quote by Valiance>

Without getting turned into a newt?

@Artifact

I’m not concerned about personally getting hit with something like that. I have a natural fortitude against such things.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Valiance>

There has to be some kind of limitation, right? Otherwise how do you plan to stop that?

@Artifact

It’s not exactly the sort of power you can plan around. You just have to be better.
