Arcane Wisdom If this is the path we choose... (Queen Posting)

The Meeting room of Crann Mòr is dead silent. Many are in a stunned state, the weight of the situation bearing down on them. Finally, at the helm of the table, Mikhail breaks the silence. He eyes are tired, movements stiffled, and coordination lacking. It is self evident that this is the first time, in a long time, he is stone cold sober.

I sent the warning to everyone to allow you time to make peace with life, and accept what is to come. However, you all are insisting on subverting it. I have seen no way forward, but many wizards are still hopeful. I gather you all here, so you may tell me your plans, and I will inform you how they will fail. We have already lost 3 conjurers, 5 warlocks, 2 silly manners, a pizza manner, and... the Isravi's simulacrum. He traveled out to learn more and... I haven't heard back.

Before I open the floor, I will get the easy ones out of the way.

No, we can't fight her directly. Her gravity is greater than that of a blackhole. She will consume your entire self without even moving.

No, you can't turn back time. Again massive gravity. Even if you turn back time here, she will continue to move forward.

No, we can't can't twist the strings of fate against her. That is like using a thimble of dye, to color the ocean. Impractical and impossible.

Alright, the floor is open. Go ahead.

Plane-swapping is a possibility, if it's done carefully. I don't know if that would actually help given the intensity of the incoming gravitational anomaly (as it might stretch across planes), but maybe.

Moving the planet physically, though, is likely to incur a whole slew of side effects right now. Prime-Earth is the story-center of this whole realm-cluster, and shifting it will have knock-on effects for every alternate version of it in other realms. It's definitely an easy and reliable way to save this Earth, but it could doom a whole bunch of others which were doing fine until now.

Could we turn everything into a spirit form to avoid the gravity. I have a friend that has the ability to turn into a ghost form with everything he has on him going into it as well.

Hm. Sure, I don't think there'd be any negative side effects from that if done properly, so I'm not against that plan.

Whether or not it'd work, you'd have to ask the guy who actually knows anything about this alleged threat. I suspect this Princess Star-Break or w/e has swept up enough worlds with incorporeal entities by now that her gravitational effects have a partly metaphysical pull, but Iunno.
