"Pitiful."
As Ishtar continued to bleed, and draw those tendrils of extant blood magic into herself however, she came to understand what he had done, in full. A crude -- last ditch -- teleportation spell that had shunted them to another plane. That he had done so without dropping them into a star. That she could replicate the spell was not in question, the Oni had the blood, and yet with no framework to base the spell on, there was no telling where they might end up. Though ...
Raising to her feet shakily, blue-black blood continuing to flow freely. Ishtar raised her voice so the others might hear her. "It was a spell that shunted us to another universe. Returning by means of travel is ... untenable."
She replied to Jack's comments about a star map.
"By blood I have grasped the remnants of the spell, enough so that it can be reversed, but I cannot guarantee we will end up on Earth ... it may be in the space just above. Which most of you will be unable to survive long." Trailing off a moment, to steady herself, the golden-eyed Oni thought of something that may at least protect them long enough to make landfall.
Filtering Ki into the alien planet, the Oni proceeded to create a sphere of controllable 'earth' of the surrounding 50 meters. Then she turned to Sarada.
"Do you still have that Capsule house ? If so, I need you to deploy it and get everyone inside. If not I will need those who can to erect barriers around everyone." Turning toward Etrina then, the Oni swayed again a moment, before shaking her head.
"I will need you to seal every exit and entrance to the house -- or reincofece a barrier of some kind that shields everyone from open space -- once everyone is inside. Asha'rah can create breathable oxygen, and with the house properly sealed it should suffice for the few moments we are forced to ... improvise."
Sighing then, as she realizes how ... insane the plan sounds, the Oni shakes her head quickly before nodding to herself.
"You will have a few moments before I rebuild the spell as best I can. Please do what you can."
With that said, Ishtar turned and began to quickly, and carefully, rebuild the sigils and runes as best she could, using her own blood to trace out the guidelines for their return to the Earth they knew ... alongside the 50m of plant she intended to bring with them.
Hopefully they would not need to rely on her plan to preserve the lives of those who could not breathe in space, but for one of the few times in her life ... Ishtar did not know if she could.
OT: Locked next post.
