Then–
"FOOLISH MORTAL!"
The Hooded One's voice exploded across the rooftop, carrying rage that made the air crack.
"STOP THIS AT ONCE AND I SHALL LET YOU ESCAPE WITH YOUR LIFE! I SHALL ALLOW YOU TO FLEE WITH YOUR LIFE INTACT!"
All the floating forms spread their hands, darkness beginning to gather once more despite the pressure pressing against them.
"THE BACKLASH FROM USING ANOTHER LAW'S PRINCIPLES IN A DREAMSCAPE BATTLE WILL DESTROY YOU!"
The central figure's shrouded form trembled, power building.
"DO YOU NOT UNDERSTAND WHAT YOU'RE–"
Tap Tap Tap
The Sage started walking forward, his boots crunching against fractured stone with steady rhythm.
The axe remained on his shoulder, lightning continuing to arc across the blade's surface.
"As someone who has played this game his entire existence..."
His voice came out level and controlled despite the power radiating from his frame.
