The
Soothing Song comes to an end, and
Ornos flies back as a horde of 10 Soldiers of
Geshemblos spring up from the floor, and for a moment, they are as still as ice.
Velklin panics as the skinks turn on him. He orders his minions to run, but not before
Ornos flies close.
If Tails, right. If Heads, left: TAILSVelklin runs to the right, and
Ornos flies along. The skinks give chase, but due to their stubby limbs and awkward bodies, are left behind just for Velklin to gather himself. He sends Steve-o to his certain death to hold the soldiers off and watches as the golem turn the corridor to be shattered into shreds.

BATTLE OVER
By then, Burt had already ran through the opposite room and into the third lever, he pulls it, trying to not stress himself in the process to not trigger another enemy spawn.
Burt clears his mind: 14He doesn't sees any swirling ices, so he assumes everything is fine as is.
On the other side of the dungeon, Lemmy is about to do exact same. Because he was already calm and collected from before, he manages to avoid triggering another spawn also.
And with the last lever pulled, the locked door clicks a final time and slowly opens to reveal the tall room with the obelisk inside.
And something else too.
A shivering cold envelops the air, and the god of song shakes in fear as he precognitively senses the presence of his brother.
Eleazar and Isabam make their entrance into the dungeon just in the right moment to see the pure, unbridaled reptilian rage on the face of
Geshemblos. And a moment after, they are knocked back by the wave of telekinetic magic.
Isabam Butsha tries to hold on: 6
Eleazar tries to hold on: 18
Isabam flies back through the entrance and hits the wall with a loud crack. Eleazar holds on still, and lets the magic pass on through. He merely stumbles from the blast. This seems to anger the creature, a giant skink made of immaculately carved, crimson and lime colored glass, wrapped onto the obelisk, which is glowing crimson. It seems angry, but doesn't lunges or approaches at the funny blue man. Instead, it just clings onto the obelisk harder. Its soldiers make a swift turn back to the room and onto Eleazar too, giving up their cautious pursuit of Velklin and go on the defensive, quickly running to block the path.
The big baddie and its minions, it is.
While all the crazy adventure stuff is going on at the heart of the comet, Su Lin is vibing. Well, no, he is actually scratching his head in utter befuddlement. First, The Narrator claims some stupid materialistic shit, and he owns him with facts and logic. Then he checks the ship for any damages. And that is what confuses him. He has checked everything. From the floor to the ceiling, the pipes, the monitors, the walls, that weird haunted fountain with the smiling cube statue that giggles every once in a while- everything. He thinks that the explosion should have damaged
something. But the ship as exactly the same as it was before the explosion.
So the checks the cameras. What he sees shocks him. For a single frame, just after he explodes, there is substantial damage. Not in the way of broken pipes, the ruined and blackened floor, sparks and smoke. No. It's void. Vantablack void, appearing like corruption on the recording, covering the area that the explosion affected. Maybe it is corruption, he thinks. The next frame, nothing. The void, gone. Replaced by the sleek shiny unknown metal. All good as new.
There is no ryhme or reason to this.
