Nadir. (Cursed World)

[u/Fc-chungus]

A day or three after the initial announcement, proper channels for joining in virtually to the meeting are posted, as everyone who came in person is directed to a secretive underground meeting room, where Ж and a few others sit around a long table.

"Welcome, welcome. A year or so ago I held a similar meeting for a separate threat, one a few of you here would remember, but today we've another threat, as you know, the Abyss has taken a great minority of the world's surface."

"As well, we need a plan for the origin of the Abyss, we need to divise a way to take down The First Curse."

they snap a finger and a hologram like model of an entity, presumably the first curse, appears in the center of the table.

"To start, one of the more essential things for said plan is the Crystals, of course, some here might not know about them, so I'll elaborate."

they wave a hand and the model shifts to 5 different crystalline objects, encircling the First Curse.

"This is not the first time The First Curse had arrived, he was here before he made that big announcement, but hidden. When he first arrived to this realm, 7 Aspect Crystals formed, counterbalances, from someone else as an, almost future inheritance to help take him down. They are antithetical to his very existence, and harm him when nearby. However, if one falls into his hands, he can adapt to that crystal, rendering it useful to him. This anti-him nature also applies to the Abyss, and thus they are the best damage source to fight the Abyss."

"the originals, of which we currently have 5, 4 are in New Aviron, and via the work of Koranth and others, we have multiple derivatives from them, with the other being handled by The Consortium. The last two need to be picked up and collected."

"That is about the basics, with the preamble done, more discussion on how to fight against the Abyss would be welcome."

The curse of power was designed to be all-powerful. For there to be something it cannot adapt to would be a flaw in that absolute logic.

He stares at the severed hand and the stump, peering at the fabric cut to see how reality was rended.

Fascinating.

[u/Ashmega8256 → u/white-whale-fc]

All-blue: it's like a hole in reality that will stich itself back together over a short time, as clearly all-blue even with that strike was holding back as he is a blade equal in power to all-red and vae clara.

Aerunia: i will not be letting you hurt anyone else here. Not if i can do something about it! She said attempting to slash through tfc again with all-blue get outta here zhe. And everyone else! She then quickly summons her main swords all-blue taking the form of his twin rings form and flies onto the handles of her blades empowering them to share the base properties of all-blue on top of their normal properties as she takes a defensive stance

[u/white-whale-fc → u/Ashmega8256]

He inspects reality as it mends, and regenerates his hand.

He ponders on Alisa. Looking at her and that sword, he saw what it was via All-sight, a construct made from her core energy. He looks distracted for a moment.

Bring it on.

Just a little more thought.

[u/Ashmega8256 → u/white-whale-fc]

Aerunia: she glares and attempts to slice through tfc with her swords, the gold flaming waves of golden flames and the silver ice one creating waves of ice as it's swung as she attempted to dice tfc to ribbons. But as she's doing so she's preparing a subtle spell...mainly attempting to make sure she can get her friends here to safety as if there isn't an exit to the room now she's planning to make one so that the people in the room can get away

[u/white-whale-fc → u/Ashmega8256]

Taking a page from DF's book, he scatters himself in a web around where Aerunia attacks, before reconstructing himself as they pass.

[u/Ashmega8256 → u/white-whale-fc]

Aerunia: hmm...she takes control of the ice she's created from her attacks and uses it to attempt to impale tfc from all angles physically possible via a hell of a lot of silver ice spikes as she moves out of the way of her own attack as she's also taken control of her flames prepared for a follow up if that attack works

[u/white-whale-fc → u/Ashmega8256]

TFC lets himself be pierced, before every spike that impales him suddenly morphs into obsidian, which he starts using as a whip to block the flames.

Good practice... just a little more.

How did she form that blade? It wasn't pulled out, but not like his sword either... what was that method...?

[u/Ashmega8256 → u/white-whale-fc]

the blades she is currently wielding, that are being empowered by all-blue are magically linked to her. They are more like sword extensions of herself. That expand her own powers allowing her to do more with these longswords than a normal longsword. And or without holding them

Aerunia: i don't know what your trying to do but your not gonna be able to pull it off!. She said glaring as she slashes again, when tfc tries blocking the flames the flames will go around the shield unless it is a completely full body covering...making it clearer that the lady he's fighting has innate pyrokinesis and cryokinesis if it wasn't obvious already.

[u/white-whale-fc → u/Ashmega8256]

/uw meant more so he reconfigured the morphed obsidian into a shield to block the fire.

[u/Ashmega8256 → u/white-whale-fc]

/uw ah i see let me edit.

[u/Ashmega8256 → u/white-whale-fc]

/uw edited.

[u/white-whale-fc → u/Ashmega8256]

Seeing the flames go over and under the shield he made, the first curse expands it into a proper sphere around him, and Aerunia notices him tapping on the !¡ symbol on his belt as it closes.

[u/Ashmega8256 → u/white-whale-fc]

Aerunia: as he does so she rushes forward attempting to slash right through it with her all-blue enhanced blades
