Void Rift (rp) - Intermission

"We're trying to weaken a god, Ihra. A god not even a near unkillable being could kill. Do you seriously think we stand any chance at all against her? We're dead, Ihra. The only reason we're still here is because she hasn't decided to wipe us out yet." Abigail says, attempting to make Ihra see her point of view.

 

"Because WE weakened HER. We've fought her when she was stronger than she is now. We can do it again; at least, I believe in us. Apparently you don't."

 

Abigail sighs.

"How weak is she?" Abigail asks.

 

"She can only erase one of us at a time - if we don't distract her. Everything else is like dodging other attacks. We keep breaking her channeling for erasure and we get out with everyone." Ihra says confidently.

 

"Fine..." Abigail says, a slight hissing sound accompanying her speech, "Let's just do it..."

 

"You don't have to come." Ihra says bluntly.

 

"No...you need people to distract her. I can burn her enough to cause a distraction." Abigail says, wiping the tears hissing on her face.

 

"Don't kill yourself, you're not even in the Void yet!" Ihra chuckles. "Besides, if you don't want to, there's other people who have an emotional stake in this who are willing."

 

"No...I'll go..." Abigail says, falling to her side.

 

Ihra turns around.
"Oh shit... are you okay?" Ihra asks, staff glowing.

 

Abigail just lies on the ground, sighing.

 

Ihra casts a healing and energizing spell on Abigail.
"At least go to Artemis or Myria for aromatherapy..." Ihra sighs.

 

"Might as well throw my life away anyway. Haven't done much with it apart from ruin it." Abigail says, sounding depressed.

 

Ihra looks at Abigail sadly before turning away.
"I'll be damned if you die." She says, bitter, before walking towards Artemis and Myria.

 

It appears they're still doing blindfolded archery practise, Artemis seems nonetheless skilled at it.

A short distance away, Stephanie and I walk toward the group.

 

"Hey, Myria? Looks like most of us are here."

 

"Very well, we should start planning our attack, failsafes and how to deal with damages on the battlefield." Myria says, patting Artemis on the back.

Artemis lowers her bow, looking at Ihra despite her blindfold seeming to prevent vision.

 

"Alright. I'll have Rineth give the others a heads-up." Ihra says, looking into her staff's crystal.


@Gushy48 @Enhanced_Human
Rineth passes by overhead and, after a giant gust of wind, lands near you.
"Hey, Thirteen, Cecil? We're planning an offensive. We were wondering if you were up to coming."

 

A large, spiked ball of ice rolls over to the group, before cracking open into two halves, revealing Katie inside.

"Hey, I thought I'd stay with the group." Katie says, smiling.

 

"I'm ready. Not sure about Crystal. He's hugging Buddy to death."
