You have been gifted this power Layra, USE IT! Wizard imprints a jumble of sentances and thoughts on Calano as he fights Emma. His forms of light and tiger holding off Emma, revealing what he had become, the guardian, completely and fully. You must live Calano, don't engage her again. You are the key to her defeat. You don't yet have the power. Find the birth place of the various life Gods. Go. Go! GO! @CalanoCorvus 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Medium he/they Posted January 18, 2023 Author Report Share Posted January 18, 2023 (edited) Ravelast: Sixth Archive Gateway Quote Layra is already dead in reality. Dreamscape to reality mechanics causes.... strange things to happen, regardless of Kaos. NO! The voice shouted back, You shouldn't be here. It is forbidden. You are useless, the power is wasted. End it! Layra's breathing increases. Useless... Useless... Useless... The knife shimmers with Darkness, and Layra plunges it into her neck. Her body puffs into nothing and she returns to the Corrupted Dreamscape to wander as a corrupted part of it. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Calano stands, turns on the spot, and vanishes, not bothering to object. Clinic: Lobby Calano fell to his knees, breathing hard. He screamed. A scream to rival the shouts of the Gods, a scream that echoed through the cosmos. He collapsed to the floor, crying. @The Wandering Wizard Edited January 18, 2023 by CalanoCorvus 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dreamscape to reality mechanics causes.... strange things to happen, regardless of Kaos. Quote The Kaos did give her a physical body or it can and will after this. It can also do strange things, like shattering the rules of reality and then rewriting them. I was kind of planning on having her being one of Emma's generals if you want her to be. 18 minutes ago, CalanoCorvus said: Calano stands, turns on the spot, and vanishes, not bothering to object. Quote Bro, I can't kill Wizard now like I was planning to "The rest of you all leave now while you can!" Wizard continues to meet Emma blow for blow. His instincts reacting as fast as hers, negating any advantage either had. The words will come next, it's always been her way. "They will all die you know. Corruption or death." Wizard stands solidly, Emma's strokes rebounding against his. "That is not the truth, that is the lie of the Kaos. You can not kill us permanently, we will always live on. In story and word, our tales against you will live. Never forgotten, never." She growls in response, returning all of her focus to her deadly strokes. She is quite good, and has improved. I'll give her that, though quite a bit of that comes from breaking laws through the Kaos. Steady, steady. It's almost time to sheath the sword. @The Bookwyrm @Aes Sedai @UnfortunatelyNamed @Shining Silhouette Edited January 18, 2023 by The Wandering Wizard 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He tapped a button on it and was warped to the clinic. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Wandering Wizard he/him Posted January 18, 2023 Report Share Posted January 18, 2023 Ravelast: Sixth Archive Gateway Emma casually drops her shield and blasts Joe in the chest with a bolt of corruption, flinging him backwards. Wizard's sword flicks up in that instant and nicks her cheek. A small trickle of blood freely runs from it. Emma disengages from Wizard and he allows her to retreat a few paces. He himself retreats towards those unconcious on the ground, grabs them, yanks Bookwyrm by his collar and teleports back to the clinic. @The Bookwyrm @UnfortunatelyNamed @Aes Sedai @Shining Silhouette 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shadowed they/them Posted January 18, 2023 Report Share Posted January 18, 2023 Quote Wow. Looks like I missed… a LOT. The Sixth Archive We made it. Matra took a deep breath and woke up from the dreamscape. Ravelast She looked around, taking everything in. So much fighting… And of course that ever-present oppressive darkness that numbed her senses and preyed on her mind. She wondered if there was anything she could do to help - she still had her sword summoned. I need to do something.

"But, tell me this, Thaidakar," He said, eyes puffy and bloodshot, the ferocious glare of a man who'd lost the world, and had nothing left, "Was it your wife?" He asked viciously, "Was it the girl you'd known since childhood? Was it the girl you doomed to a dark entity for most of her life? Was it the girl who, miraculously, forgave you for that, and became your most beloved, most favorite person in the entire multiverse? Was it the girl who grew up not with a fear of the dark, but with a fear of the light? Was it the girl who woke up with nightmares for months, years, to cry herself to sleep in your arms?"

Then... then it all ended because of an ancient mistake. Worlds were destroyed, more people than you can imagine died. You cannot begin to think of how many people I destroyed all because I couldn't control myself." Thaidakar sighed, "and yet... and yet, somehow, I continued on.
