Onward: Red

They are in the vortex for what seems like forever but is perhaps not that much time at all. They do not hunger, they are tired enough that it feels like they have been struggling against the chaos of the sea for a few hours yet how much time they have been flying in truth, is unknowable.

They emerge, pushing up out of the vortex. There were four rockpools and now, as they land on a vast plain they will find they have all arrived at the same destination.

The sky is black, pin pricked with stars and in the distance, on the horizon there is a glowing white light. The light is bright, bouncing off the ripples of water and giving them light to see.

For it is water they stand on, a vast ocean, inky black in the darkness. They stand on it with ease and yet, if they wish, they can dive down into it. The water is clear and yet they will find no plants or fish.

Monsters though, they will find a plenty. As the voidtreckers arrive, their footsteps rippling on the sea, they are joined by creatures. Giant crabs, shark head beasts, water snakes. They stand between the voidtreckers and the light on the horizon.

Somewhere in this sea it seems there is a giant squid, as tentacles reach out of the water to grab the ankles of the void warriors and pull them down to the inky depths.

The voidtreckers feel a pull towards the light, yet the horizon seems endlessly far away, getting no closer as they fight their way towards it.

Given that Light's current opinion of him is that he's a selfish but talented guy who can at least be incentivised to do the right thing, she's not going to lose any sleep over it. She watches him for those initial strikes, until she's confirmed that he knows what he's doing, and then turns away to launch another barrage of ice and fire at a writhing mass of seasnakes.

She snorts at his boast, though.

"These aren't big enough for you?"

"It's not like they are anything except mindless creatures. Their only advantage is their numbers." He has fought enough undead which are similar in they only know how to fight but aren't intelligent enough to win.

"Besides, these are only here as a delay and distract technique to hold us back from getting to what we need."
