Ishtar’s aura burns the shards away as Ruination sheathes her body.
“Never meant to be? Never meant to be!?”
Ishtar holds her hand and an unfamiliar sword appears there, covered in starlight and reflecting an edge sharper than any seen.
“Sword of Damocles, by your name forsake what foe stands before me. Cut! All. Ties!
The blade shimmers and Ishtar charges at you.
Remnant still remains hidden.

Durive looks pensive for a moment, glancing nervously over his shoulder before finally deciding to let her have a good look at the ring.
...Via jamming it violently into her eye as he just barely was able to contain his uproarious laughter.
The ring did have the codes written down in a near-microscopic font, for what it was worth. Durive was never going to break the rules of the game. Bend them...perhaps, but break them? Never...
Praxat touches her GP communicator on her chest. ( Hmm, I wonder if I can get any reception here? It won't hurt to try,) Praxat thought.
Praxat uses her GP communicator using her Bio-Electromagnokinesis via Electronic Communication. ( If this call is getting through, then This is Officer Praxat,The DXCIII ( 593rd). I have just rescued two dozen captives, and I'm requesting assistance. ) Praxat said electricpathically.

“I don’t know,” Parsley responded coolly. “Maybe the same thing I told him when I cut his head off.” Context was, of course, needed, but she felt that was all the response he should get.
With the top few floors of the fortress destroyed, reaching the ritual room was simple. It seemed that whatever forces Cancer had stationed inside had either been destroyed or were otherwise preoccupied. She noticed Held and a returned Totoma fighting some cloaked figures, so she assumed those were the ones that had previously been inside.
She quickly made her way down to the ritual room. As with the one in the first fortress, she examined every inch of it to determine if it held any secrets about Cancer and any potential weaknesses.
Observational Focus
"Honestly, I'm just glad you're not an hallucination. " Held replied rubbing his temples as he disembarked from the makeshift missile, "There was some brain stuff going on before you got here and I thought you were the fever dream of a dying mind."
He sighed before turning his attention to Karine.
"In any case, I'm glad to see you. This should make retriving Karine a bit easier, I imagine. It's unlikely I'm going to find someone more motivated than you in that regard in the Galaxy."
The Nevadian blinked for a moment, his eyes detecting the barest hints of --something--as Totoma struggled in vain to pull forth some dregs of a power hidden too deep to access. Between the attempt to crush his mind, and the stress of the day, Held almost wondered if it was a figment of his imagination. Had it not flickered in and out time and time again, he likely would have dismissed it entirely.
Knowledge of the Justice Bind slipped from his mind. Damn it! Not a huge loss, but it was a useful technique--and one of his originals, too! Bast--
Suddenly, he lost his Super Saiyan 3 form, dropping to Super Saiyan 2... and then that, reverting to a basic Super Saiyan. He blinked, and tried to transform, finding himself... unable. Wait, had...
Oh yes. It shall be ever so amusing to watch you try and save your pet with the power you so define yourself by diminished to such an extent.
Totoma shifted his weight, then sighed and scratched the back of his head. "Ha ha, I seem to be having some, uh... power issues. I..."
The Just Saiyan paused for a moment, mentally swallowing his pride. Now, he wasn't the most prideful saiyan out there, but he had developed (or rediscovered?) a pretty fierce amount of pride... perhaps, lately, too fierce. It was hard for him to ask for help. Offer help? Sure. Fight alongside others? You betcha? But swallow his pride and ask for help? Yeah, that had become... difficult.
"...can't do this alone. Will you help me, Held?"
Oh? You could have asked him to help in regards to me, yet...
Karine was more important now. And if he tried to blab, he'd probably just be rewarded with his memories of the Dark King being swiped, woudn't he?
Ah, so you can think ahead. Perhaps you're not as hopeless as you appear.
"In return, I can treat you to some Huangjiu or some Baijiu, if you prefer the harder stuff," he said, holding out his hand. Of course, those words would sound like gobbledygook to an alien, but it would be clear that he was talking about alcohol, of course. Probably the best thing to repay a Nevadian with, when it came to personal favors.
Still. As interesting as whatever that may have been was, it was hardly the time dwell on such things.
Held blinked for a moment, Totoma's request finally permeating through His mind belatedly.
"While I'll never turn down a good drink, I'd have done it for free." Held replied, meeting the halfbreed's hand with his own, "You couldn't seriously think I would leave either of you in a situation like this..."
"....Although. I suppose it gets more tempting by the moment."
Good grief...Are they this upset about the guys Totoma dispatched? Or are they worried about the threat we present? No....That is unlikely, especially with the others not too far from here.
Held glanced at Karine as he recalled the appraisal of the situation afforded to him by Zaofan. That, combined with whatever ritual they had going on before hand....
I guess Zao was right. Karine really is the definition of high value at the moment.
The Nevadian turned slightly towards the enemies rushing to meet them, as energy began to manifest in his hand, creating dozens of 'seeds' of Ki.
Thrusting his hand outwards, he tossed the seeds forward and they landed upon any surface they could, sinking--slightly burrowing--beneath.
"Either way, I'll do what I can."

"Is that so? Had I known that was your true preference, I could have saved time with that dalliance in the pit, kuh-kuh-kuh..."
With the conversation with Parsley concluded, from the lower and upper chambers of the first destroyed fortress, two of Koorimaru's Capsule Drones moved to side of the Sasheems riding the shadow bats.
"I'll be keeping an eye on the situation as you move forward. You won't hold back, that I am sure of, but I will loan support where I am able."
Elsewhere, Koorimaru floating to the emptied fortress. The remaining four drones fanned out about him, remote eyes surveying the environs in the dark illuminated by the net Lantro had cast earlier.
They've drawn their attention, it seems. He smiled to himself, watching the vampire throng streaming out like fish moving upriver. That will make this ever so much easier.
He closed in to the foundations, following the trails of diminished Hakai that had been severed from this chamber. Yet he still found something had safeguarded this deepest chamber. Impressive, this had managed to withstand my attack. Which means...
Reaching out towards the chamber with his hands, he focused the powers of his mind, and began to pry at it with his telekinesis in an effort to force the chamber open.

"You, and Inanna both were little more than failed experiments; the playthings of a would be God... same as the one you serve now." Efrideet continued, eyeing the blade curiously. More glyphs sparking into being around her runic arm, Efrideet manifested a shield of True Magic to test the Sword of Damocles, mindful that Remnant remained an unseen threat.
Yeah, but if you... man, we're getting into weird analogy territory, like if you disintegrated Superman's arms he wouldn't be able to go "fool! Little did you know that my arms and I are one and can be remade from me!" and will his arms back into being from pure nothingness. - Pendaran
Arx Inosaan
To her surprise, the sword cuts through the shield of True Magic like it wasn’t even there.
Ishtar bull rushes in after the shield is cut through and shoulder checks Efrideet backwards, where Remnant appears and kicks Efrideet downwards.
Around Remnant is a crackling blue aura instead of super Saiyan, and his aura has grown larger.

The second Fortress, where Koorimaru and Parsley have gone, is empty. The second ritual room is forced open by Koorimaru, the complete Sigil inside resists being moved or effected for a moment before Koorimaru manages to start tracing the lines of Hakai to a new conclusion.
Following the lines of power, he can see that they go deep into the moon.
Parsley, your Observational Focus find much of what you expected. The Sigil connects to Cancer, allowing her to feed through the sacrifice of others upon the Sigil.
Theoretically, if she remained connected to the Sigil, one could force feed poison or something into it to poison her, but that would require her being connected.

Sasheem, the shadow bats suddenly all break apart into puddles of shadowy blood and dissipate.
Cancer has fled elsewhere for the moment.
