Sub-Turn 12: Premature End of The World ? (Part3)Secret Actions :Fredegar sends a message to the remaining Humans Minds.
"The Gods have betrayed you and destroyed your kind beyond repair, JOIN ME and you will have your revenge! Pray to Fredegar and you will avenge the fallen!"[/color]
Anyone who prays to Fredegar will gain the powers of the Void
Alright then I'm gonna force the Void into them instead.
There are very few humans left compared to a hour ago. At least 90% of Humanity died of various causes or got consumed by Gasnareth Imrep.
[2] Your call reach far and wide through every possible human mind. But after so much betrayal, catastrophes and death, the Humans refuse to heed your call.
"Gods are evil, and those who aren't have forsaken us."
A few of your most fanatical and despairing believers pray for salvation though. To reward them, you force the "Void" into them.
And their existences are promptly erased.
rest
and try and regain energy
[6] > [3] Heavily wounded and exhausted, you manage to retreat in your temple. Here, you manage to rest, slowly recovering Energy.
You recover 6000 EnergyYour wound seems a little bit better now.You are
Heavily WoundedBut as a result of your weakened state, your hold on your own Ether becomes feeble, and some of it is "borrowed" by the World, joining the massive streams.
You lose 200 EtherThe only action I can take, Strike at the emerging mass, and channel my ether into closing the rift.
You wait a little before jumping into the fray, to get out of your
Exhausted state.
You recover 1500 Energy [Natural Recovery]
No longer
ExhaustedYour Energy is still very low though, but you nonetheless decide to strike at the incoming mass.
[5] Just before you connect with it, a whisper tell you to use your Ether against it. So you listen to the whisper, and channel your Ether into your strike. The "Mass" reacts by gently going back into the Rift, like of its own accord.
You lose 200 Ether[6] > [4] Afterward you burn all your remaining Ether to close the Rift. And strangely, despite your small Ether input compared to the World's one, the Rift begins to close..
You lose 265 Ether Thing returned inside the Rift for now+Rift Size:-20%
Gasnareth Imrep
Fredegar
SaraabI Form a Scythe For the Reaper, One Meant to Harm Gods And Lethally harm Non immortal Beings By Speeding up Ageing onto death. I then Send it to him.
Afterwards I Blast The Rift and whatever is leaving it with All my Remaining Ether and Fredegar With all my Power.
Death is Less then the Fate that Awaits Traitors such as you, Now be Destroyed Fredegar the Cowardly.
Burn, heretic!
'Rev' my lance, enveloping the lance that is impaling Fredegar in 'Ether Flame' (obvious DMC reference is obvious). Shield myself if he has a counterattack.
"Am I the traitor? I had chosen no side, it was my fate to join the Void and now that Ame is gone the Gods shall perish. Join us if you wish to survive!"
Fredegar quickly dodges while talking, if they miss they will go into the Invisble Force.
Gasnareth Imrep loses 2500 Energy and 250 Ether Creation Roll 1d4 : [4]You create a Scythe capable of harming gods and give it to the Reaper. The Scythe power is magnified, and will also make Gods bleed out Energy. Furthermore the aging effect is stronger.
Artifact: Nameless ScytheThe Reaper then goes to Fredegar and attacks him. But as a non-divine being, it stands strictly no chance against Fredegar, even when the god is at his weakest. Fredegar just dodges the attack with ease.
Reaper fate roll: [3]
Half of the Reaper is ripped by a Void Hand that appeared out of nowhere. In a state of indescribable pain and disarray, the Reaper drops the Scythe and falls toward the ground.
~Mélée à Trois~ :Gasnareth Imrep fires his Energy toward Fredegar, and his Ether toward the Rift. At the same time, Saraab empowers his Lance with insane Ether quantity, revving it. It begins to burn with an "Ether Flame"
Fredegar: Dodge:[5] and Fate:[5]
Gasnareth: Energy:[2] and Ether:[1] > [4]
Saraab: EtherFlame:[3]+1 and Dodge:[4]
Gasnareth loses all his Ether and EnergySaraab loses 500 EtherBoth gods are going to put an end to Fredegar... And despite this, he seems confident. Why ?
Saraab's Lance radiates with the "Ether Flame" which is going to burn the interior of Fredegar to nothingness.
Gasnareth's full powered Divine Energy blast is coming straight for Fredegar, with no chance for escaping.
And suddenly a laugh is heard, coming from the Rift. An amused and mocking laugh.
The Ether Flame is suddenly overpowered by the Void inside Fredegar, not managing to put an end to him. As a result, the temporary Lance breaks down into golden dust, freeing Fredegar.
He immediately moves away, dodging the blast which then comes straight toward Saraab. Despite the surprise, Saraab manages to dodge the attack in time.
The blast comes crashing at the other side of the World, and a bright light and explosion can be seen from where you all are.
Gasnareth Ether blast reaches the Rift, only to be suddenly nullified. It gives a short window of opportunity to the Decimarch, who manage to rip the Void spikes out of its body and escape.
+Gasnareth is Exhausted
+Decimarch is freed from the spikes
LuxLux blasts with all his might! After getting a safer distance away putting everything he's got into closing that portal his determination fueling him beyond his normal limits and allowing him to keep going.
"TIME TO CHANGE FATE!"
[1] > [4] You channel all the power you can bring out, and blast it all in a pure Ether beam toward the Rift, your determination fueling yourself.
Lux loses 750 Ether But your attack is completely negated once it reaches the Rift. You are beginning to collapse from Ether exhaustion, when the World grants you another -and last- dose of Ether to fuel yourself.
Lux recovers 500 Ether
He Who Flies Through The Darkness, Aloft On Dragon's Wings, Seeking To Bring Beginnings And EndsA sigh. A breath. The end?
He Who... who... ?. He Who... who... who... does... ? He who...wants... ? Why? Why? He Who Flies... Through The Darkness... Aloft On... Dragon's Wings... Seeking... To Bring... Beginnings... And Ends...sighed. Either he would die, or he wouldn't. He didn't have enough power to interfere. All... he could do... was watch.
And so, he watched. And potentially died. But we will see what the end of this tale is.
He Who Flies Through The Darkness, Aloft On Dragon's Wings, Seeking To Bring Beginnings And Ends felt powerless. Forsaken. Misunderstood. Betrayed. None could understand his true intent in the end. None could see the same vision as his.
He sighed. And watched the Rift, and the Gods struggling against it. How everything seemed so foolish right now. Slowly, he let himself die, hoping to finally have respite...
Fate Roll : [3]
Nothing came to his help. He slowly laid here, as his divinity slowly left his body. Watching. Waiting. There was still some time left, so he might as well appreciate the scenery.
He Who Flies Through The Darkness, Aloft On Dragon's Wings, Seeking To Bring Beginnings And Ends is still Dying. He is much more dead than last turn though. [Can't come back by himself]
Gasnareth ImrepI Send "Orders" to the Earth Shaker, The Orders are "Return To the Surface Through What was "The Black Desert" " While Giveing General A - B Positioning for it's movement.
You also send an order to the Earth Mover. It will take him forever to return to the inner Surface.
[3] Nothing special happened to him thankfully.
Earth Mover coming back. Maybe.
WORLD ACTIONS :
Decimarch Roll : [3]
World Roll : [5]
Finally free, the Decimarch once more tried to close the Rift. Weakened, he only managed to make it bulges a little. Close to its final limit, the World sacrificed all that was left to close the Rift. Unbeknownst to anyone, the Golden Sky disappeared as all the Ether forming it gathered in one gigantic tether that connected directly to the Decimarch.
Empowered Decimarch Roll : [4]
With the whole power of the World, the Decimarch changed form. The two halves connected, and its body turned ether-gold. Grabbing even more firmly the sides of the Rift, it pulled inward with such might that all could feel reality being torn apart.
+Rift Size: -30%
+The World Ether has been ExhaustedCosmic Entity :All hear but the same laugh from the Rift... And from behind the Rift, It is watching, having decided to delay its coming for now.
BeardAlon: [4]
BeardJudar: [1] > [2]
Suddenly, BeardAlon calls for the help of Atian, his King Candidate ! With the help of
the power of friendship his King Candidate, BeardAlon overpowers BeardJudar whose beard is shaved.
Having lost the secret of his power, BeardJudar vanishes into a pile of beard hair.
+BeardAlon wins
