No… this is horrible. A pathetic attempt.

Keh, a shape like this? Try again, there is no Path forward for you like this.

You… were you even listening to me? This is bad as well. From what I can tell, not a single portion is salvageable.

Through the misty expanse of Pine’s corpse, Randidly followed the two spectral guides up toward the maelstrom of light and the confrontation against an Eternity waiting for him there. Yet the corners of Randidly’s mouth turned down by degrees. Even if these two and the innumerable phantoms following behind Randidly were wel...

Around Randidly, the sense of connectedness with existence provided by the Reverie steadily faded. He stood back on the battlefield and stared up at Pine in the sky, into which Laplace had slithered.

He had no more time to delay. The final confrontation had arrived.

Through the reverie, he had found answers regardin...

Shal thrust his spear forward, cutting through the waves of dangerous radiation. Energy splashed outward in every direction. The spearhead began to sizzle and melt, but his image was sharp enough that he could cut through the dangerous environment and take another step forward.

Patreon doesn't know when it will be possible to see italics again on posts *shrug*. So hopefully context clues are enough to reveal which sentences are thoughts. But anyway, these three chapters came as a chunk because I wanted to do a little deeper outlining and see if I needed anything else.

Even after he suppressed his presence, Randidly Ghosthound lingered and observed the Nether King as he descended into the ravine that housed Helen’s Nether Prince. The decision had been made, but he still wavered.

With the smile of Randidly Ghosthound fixed upon him, the Nether King knew he needed to quickly make a decision. Before the ominous ripples of translucent significance made the air of the Alpha Cosmos any more hostile.

The problem was that none of his options appealed to him. Fleeing was possible but would mean that this opportunity was lost. ...
