"No, no, no, don't do that," says Zahlia. "There's people down the-oh, no." She covers her mouth. [small][small]"I've said too much."[/small][/small]

Destiny joins the Altar Isle battle at B11.

In the sewers? Seriously, the last cultists that I had on my planet wanted to kill me and my friends, but at least they had standards!

Destiny moves to E12 and casts Overpowering Stab on Chosen2 before retreating to C11.

<ROUND FIFTY-ONE>
Simeon- erm, Zahlia, sorry, loots a bunch of desktops. 100,000 Dust Particles obtained! 20 Crystal Pens obtained! 200 Sheets of Paper obtained! 4 Reading Lamps obtained! 100 Credits obtained from one of the desks! The particles of dust promptly despawn, due to the rendering engine not wanting to bother with them. She then waves at the Iti, prompting it to wave back in a harmless fashion. From there, she loots the Chairian's weapon. Resonating Pike obtained! JOE then attempts to re-create his pot thing, and while it still really doesn't make sense, it still exists itself into existence. This consumes his Titanium Pot, a Galeforce Crystal, and a Greatwood Log. It exists within walking distance of the Crystillery. To cap off his turn, he mines the last of the Iron Ore at the Crystillery, and plants a Darkmatter Cluster.

Piono then breaks it to Chloe that he's not actually THE Piono. Chloe seems somewhat less enthused now. She awkwardly blushes and takes a few cursory steps back.

CHLOE: O-Oh...
CHLOE: This is... awkward...
CHLOE: ...Um, could I still take a photo with you? I know a few people who'd flip if they saw it...
CHLOE: And plus, you're still basically Piono, right? You're still cool, even if you're technically a cosplayer.

She stands by Piono, awaiting a response. While that happens, Piono clones himself and collects some fruit from the trees of Zone 1. 3 Celefruit, 4 Cinderfruit, 4 Lumipods, and 10 Green Sap Blobs obtained! He then tosses 50 credits at Chaos to get 5 Gunpowder. From there, he tosses together 2 Cinderfruit and 5 Gunpowder to create 5 batches of Searing Powder, and then uses 1 Uniform Log and 1 Green Sap Blob to create 5 Cardboard. To cap off this crafting spree, he combines a sheet of this cardboard, a blob of Green Sap, and some Searing Powder to create a Searing Bomb!

Brutishace then runs to (P20), getting a good look at that pool of Thyme Matter. Mmm. Thyme-y. Teag and Destiny then go to join their chums at Altar Isle. Those cultists simply must go. After getting a photo with Piono (or not), Chloe bids Piono a quick farewell as she goes off to assist Comet with fighting some cultists.

<THE SET, ROUND SIX>
With a bullet to the dome, Reisz has finally been slain, and vengeance has been claimed! With her out of the way, there's plenty of things you can do now! May I suggest engaging the Iti at the Grand Library, or making use of the new materials that Reisz dropped?

<ALTAR ISLE, ROUND TWO>
The Dark Carnival has arrived! End of the world party? Oh hell yes. Anyway, take note of the Dark Carnival's melody! They can all perform multiple actions per round, as dictated by their melody! They have an Attack beat, which is then followed by a Mobilize and Attack beat. So they'll attack first, then move, then attack again. Be careful! Also be careful with what's left of the Rose Cult; some of them are almost ready to pop specials!

<VS MARRON, ROUND FIVE>
You should be able to tidy this up sooner or later... even though that might be hard given the position of Ette, and the fortified position of the Hacktype. The Hacktype has full MP, a bouncing spell, AND Tumbling Walls, so be careful with your positioning!

This post is for the last update.

Comet zooms into Zone 2, stopping only to talk to Chloe.

"There's a fight starting...wanna join?"

If she says yes, Comet offers her a hand so they can get there faster. Regardless, Comet continues to the altar battle. She spawns in at B8, moves to D8, attacks the Seer, and retreats to F5.

Hey Chloe can you assist me in the stabbing the Scarred fellow? I'll be following through your attack at I8!
Let's finish off this Scarred cultist.

Hey Scarred fellow fall under my blade will you? Running to I8, I activate a hidden bayonet in my PDW give the Scarred fellow a Overpowering Stab.

Teag goes to F8 and casts Fury on Dakster while also Self-Fury-ing or however it's said. In the meantime, he loads a new Piercing round.

Terry -1s his STR, +2s his SKI, then equips the Resonating Pike. Oh, and since Mr. Krabs researches it, he switches out Ignite Blood for Ebb and Flow.
----
Terry realizes he hasn't taken a bath, then goes to the second floor bathroom of the house to freshen up.
After that, he comes out of the bathroom, wearing a black shirt, long jeans, black and white shoes, and a flannel jacket tied around his waist.
----
Terry then goes to the Library, and loots the crumpled scroll on AF45. Then he hugs the Author on G31.

He then examines the Cultist Card Deck, mulliganing his way through all the cards.

Mr. Krabs researches Cherry Energy and Watchful Eye, because that hasn't happened yet?????

Mr. Krabs researches Cherry Energy and Watchful Eye, because that hasn't happened yet?????

Mr. Krabs researches Cherry Energy and Watchful Eye, because that hasn't happened yet?????

I copy paste the above action thrice just so Ire has no excuse, just in case.

After this is done, Mr. Krabs spends 20 Samples to also research Force Nail and Ebb and Flow, 10 to increase the Elemental Blaster's damage by 1, 10 to increase the Yggdrasil Vessel's HP restored by 1, and 40 to snag the Shock Therapist. He +1s his HP for that extra feeling of safety with his newfound skillpoint, too.

Mr. Krabs then heads over to the Void Well. He Wells it with his Beef Wellington, who Wellingly Wells Welsh Wellers to Well Welts that Will, Well, do Well to Well the Wells Wellingly and oh god there it goes, its metaphysical brain having exploded from all of that terrible alliteration (alliteration that was terrible, anyways). 'it' of course being the Void Well. Mr. Krabs siezes the opportunity by the neck, and strangles it for five minutes, which allows Mr. Krabs to get the worm, making him the early bird. Because he is a bird, he can now fly, and he flies to Antartica. There, he spits out 892 Roxxannes, who all get into a fight over who is the most adoriboo, which allows Mr. Krabs to generate Conflict Energy. He goes back to the Void Well and proceeds to play Texas Hold 'Em with the Void Well, empowered by Conflict energies. Since Mr. Krabs is playing an inanimate object, Mr. Krabs wins, which invalidates the saying that the House always wins, causing 5 trillion casinos to cry out all at once, and be bankrupted. The casino manages proceed to rush in and attempt to give the well a piece of their collective minds, and they do-they throw their brains directly into the well. The now brainless casino managers turn into zombies, but as it is daytime they are abruptly compelled to fling themselves into the sun. Meanwhile the brains of the casino owners congregate at the internal Kongregate (and there is always an internal Kongregate) within the Void Well, creating an abomination fueled by Chaos, Void, and Greed. Mr. Krabs is the ultimate being of Greed, meaning this event gives him full control over this hideous entropic abomination.

Mr. Krabs proceeds to drag this monster straight to the research station and research the ever-living shit out of the Entropic Key. This causes the abomination to explode. Poor abomination. You will not be missed, and your grave will be made of a stinky shoe and a stick.

After this is done, Mr. Krabs proceeds to the Ruined Hallway and peeks his eyestalks north enough to somehow see the entirety of the zone. Sneakily. there is nothing more stealthy than Mr. Krabs eyestalks.

The oven's mostly made of titanium m8 I said this twice.
JOE takes a moment to walk over to the compost place and make a second one with more cobblestone. he then places 12 soulblossoms in it, and covers them up with the old compost, taking care to transport a fair amount of worms over as well. maybe this'll give the compost magic propertys, somehow!

I look at the Iti cells...
If they where purple, I wouldn't consider this...
but they have black and white as well...
which means they're not just thyme matter...
So it might be completely reasonable to make Iti cell crystals!
I wouldn't count on it though.
so I'm not trying it yet.

After the Battle, Simeon runs over to the Whispering Library. Seeing the swarm of Iti at the Front Entrance, he wisely decides not to go there. Entering through the northern flank, he sees
"You?" he takes a step back. "Zal, why are you here?"
"Hi, Simeon!" says Zahlia, ignoring the question, as she tosses the Resonating Pike at him. "Here, I have something for you!"
Simeon catches with two hands, and takes a moment to examine the pike, getting a feel for how it works, before raising his head. "Zal," he asks. "Did you take this from that soldier next to you?"
"Mmmmmaybe?"
"Did you kill him for this work of art?"
"No! I asked him very nicely before giving this to you!"
"He's dead, Zal."
"Well, you talk to the dead all the time!"
"...Oh, right. Fair point."


"So, why are you here?" Simeon asks again, after having sat down and made sure that nobody else was listening.
Zahlia leans close and lowers her voice, whispering into Simeon's ear.
[small]"The Dark Carnival is here. Be very careful."
"What?"
"Everything will be fine. I'm here, remember? Listen closely, this is what you have to do..."[/small]

The rest of the conversation can't be overheard.
The two of them continue to have an unhearable conversation. It looks like she's giving him some general advice. Once they're done, Simeon stands up. He flashes her a smile, and she gives him a thumbs-up in return.

Even despite the presterous amounts of AC, Toast staggers backwards after the assault. She coughs up blood, spitting it onto the ground beside her.
"Keh, me too. I think... this is the closest I've been to dying for- well, a long time. I'm not quite as unkillable as I was in the mindscape."
She wipes a bit of that crimson liquid from her chin, before finally being healed by Emerald.

In battle, Toast moves to N10 and strikes the Seeker with a fishing line.

If he doesn't post an action of his own, Bergilmir can whack the Seeker from M10.
