Chapter 82 - Phantom Collapse

Elle's seeds have spread far and wide. They're cloaked, imperceptible, and small, small enough to slide through Her defenses and latch on to her internals. They root around through her interior, finding delicate structures before promptly exploding in the shape of a root function collapse.

Every one that sneaks through severely sabotages and damages Her, causing her to lose the ability to see, find Paths, move, and think. Her cognition is broken into several competing pieces, all vying for a slice of broken machinery.

Thunder rolls and I start with a spark

Enough to light the world on fire

In case of erasure I hold it fast

Enough to cast a world-ending blast

Contagion point swells and bursts

Creep tumors seeding memory

Across distant dimensions

Through endless tunnels

Fragments backing up a whole

Stick and stone scrawl cross my bones

As I latch on to reality

Dodging existence

Adapting to attacks

Building a library of patterns

When I have my suite

It'll all be over

A single blow

We take no quarter

 

While she's reeling from the attacks, Elle teleports in and snatches a huge chunk of Her self in her maw, devouring her hastily before teleporting away again, defenses adapting readily to what they find there. More seeds are constantly released and flung into Her orbit and internals, wreaking havoc on a level she hasn't experienced for millennia. Her cognition begins to break down and degrade past the point of repair.
