“Hail travelers! Be you friend or foe?” we heard throough the hallways of this other dimension. Xaphan drew his fire sword. "You just give me the word." He said through his teeth. Nevil made a gesture to say to put his sword down. "We have mistew fuwwy, wabbit at the moment, no need to put ourselves in danger." He said.
Then they both noticed a great monster made entirely of swords or so it seemed...
"Maybe it's for the best, if you keep that weapon close by." Nevil added.
"Well, we can be considered friends, since we only want to reach the center of the nexus and have no quarrel with you. I am Nevil, chief summoner of the High court and this is my companion, Xaphan." Nevil said theatrically. "Hmmp, hmmm!" The girl grunted, as if to say: "What about me, huh?!" Nevil picked it up and said: "and this is our great ally, Sara and her rabbit."
"Now, who might you be?" Nevil said. The hallway was quite dark to make out how many of them there were or how they looked like (except the steel monster)... Three it seemed... Nevil then noticed his surroundings... Beehives?

Navura glanced up from his BA and looked at the fellow Gibordian.
He inquired "what is your name"
"my name is Alcruse" ((al-croose))
Navura silently thought to himself. 'my home is gone, my life is lost and I'm trapped in nexus forever... i have no purpose but he does. i shall help him and gain purpose my name shall never be forgotten!'
"I believe me and Novaran can help you"
"yes we can" Novaran chimed in
"Very well i always enjoy company" replied Alcruse
"but first we must stop and rest on gibord it i... i mean by Gibordian time it is roughly midnight"
"Agreed" Navura and Novaran replied in chorus

Metallic creatures that have a strange shape like a mix between a bumblebee and a scorpion were coming up from the hive 'cells' in front of Mordekai and his Archdevil. Large as a brown bear, they were clearly hostile as they made some kind of high-pitched noise when they spotted the two. They didn't seem strong creatures themselves but their strength lay in high numbers.
The metallic creatures were around 30 in number and Mordekai didn't know what to do. Knowing that so many of them would rip Mephisto apart, he was thinking of fleeing from this encounter. But then again, he did realize that a human and an Archdevil wouldn't be able to run faster than those giant scorpion-like creatures.
However, all of the metallic creatures were closely packed in front of Mephisto, and he remembered about the upgrade to his powers in the shop. With a diabolical grin, he used his Dark Nova ability, now with an area-of-effect type, to strike on the metallic creatures. Because they were very close to one another, all of them except two were hit by the dark powers of Mephisto. Each one of them being relatively weak, the affected ones were destroyed in the process.
Two more of them were standing there in front of Mordekai and Mephisto. If the metallic insects' expressions could be 'read', then these two were clearly disappointed and shocked. However, they weren't desperate. It was enough a 'scream' from one of them and the whole place was crowded with these creatures, a lot more than before. This time, they were not that closely packed, and came up from hive 'cells' from all around the place, surrounding Mordekai and Mephisto.
It looked like a hopeless battle, but Mephisto attacked them since he had nothing to lose anyway. Using his Dark Nova ability again to strike a small group of these creatures, he also hit the strange floating magical orb that lay in the center of the room. The orb started to change its color rapidly to many different ones. It turned red, then blue, then yellow, then green, then purple, then red again... it had no pattern at all. After some 3 seconds the orb stopped changing colors as it faded to a complete black one, and then after a short while it exploded into a lot of smaller pieces.
The metallic creatures stopped making any offensive noises like they were doing before when they were preparing to attack Mephisto. They were standing there completely still and silent, as if they were in terrible fears. Mordekai was pretty much confused about what happened - the orb got destroyed and now the creatures were not advancing any further and remained silent. He didn't know what to do so he first told Mephisto to stop attacking the creatures, until he analyzes and knows more about this situation.
After some 10 seconds a very deep roar could be heard from somewhere in front of Mordekai and his battle avatar. Then the hive 'walls' started to crack as if they were braking apart violently by some external force. Mordekai was shocked and confused at the same time, encountering another 'surprise' - could this get any weirder?
The metallic creatures were clearly in some form of panic as they scattered and ran like crazy in different directions, just to get as far away from this place as possible.
"What the hell is wrong with them?" asked Mordekai completely confused. "What's happening here, and what was that deep roar?"
His question was somehow answered when the hive 'walls' from the front direction were ripped apart completely by a gargantuan abomination. It looked like a fat undead humanoid. The skin was disgusting like a zombie's, the hands were like two crowbars but with flesh on them, and the head, who was without flesh and thus skeletal, had the shape of an orangutan's skull. Outside the hive, where the abomination came from, was a very large and dark cave.
After seeing Mordekai, Mephisto and the remaining creatures that were running like crazy, the abomination roared again, this time it was louder, probably because the walls weren't present anymore from the direction the abomination came. This time Mordekai got frightened, and thought to himself: Something tells me it wasn't such a good idea destroying that orb.
"Well, unless you have a better idea Mephisto, I suggest we start to... RUN!"
The two started running away from the abomination who started chasing them, destroying any obstacles such as walls from small corridors along the way. Fortunately because of the obstacles the abomination wasn't able to catch them easily like it would have been able on open terrain. However, the abomination was still moving faster and getting closer in time.
Just about as it was to catch them, a very loud high-pitched sound could be heard from the opposite direction from which the two fled. The abomination stopped immediately when hearing it, then turned around and moved towards the source of the sound, away from Mordekai and his Battle Avatar, who was extremely confused about the whole situation, and was wondering what was with the abomination and the sound that it attracted its attention. What made this sound, and why?

"Now, who might you be?"
“I?” Don Vergard called across the hive chasm, his bardic lungs showing to good effect, “I am—” He faltered. “Am—”
“Don Vergard, sir,” Stelis prompted in a more conversational tone.
“—Don Vergard!” the bard called back at last, seeming to have finally found his train of speech. Having found it, he now seemed determined to ride it to its end. “Traveler of the Nexus, seeker of fame and fortune, and the greatest bard of all time!” He freed a hand from the straps on the beast of blades so he could sweep it dramatically to one side, heedless of what the strange angle was doing to the drape of his blue and green cloak. His silver, elf-like Avatar coughed discreetly. “And this is Stelis, my Avatar—” another cough “and my companion, Dr. Crates and his Avatar!”
While Vergard was busy shouting this information, Dr. Crates tried to get a better look at the four currently occupying the horizontal axis. (Yes, he noted to himself, there were four: the lump attached to the giant rabbit creature had separated enough to be distinguishable as a little girl).

The two Nexus travelers stand next to their unconscious BA's in silence - Sehan, who's never seen such power before, and the stranger, anticipating Sehan's reaction. Sehan is about to speak when from the walls emerge the same bee-scorpion creatures that Sehan saw earlier. Sehan instinctively runs to his BA and tries to hide behind its slowly rousing form, while the stranger stands confidently alone amidst the hive of monsters.
"They think us weak... you are weak, but what they don't know is that not all of my power is within my Avatar..."
Black energy radiates from the stranger, who becomes a terrifying apparition of skulls. The energy rips through the beasts, and their shredded carapaces cover the floor. The stranger cackles as he reverts to his natural form.
Sehan faints.

Xaphan and Nevil stepped out into the light, revealing a really old man and an average-sized demon. "It's very nice to meet you, Don Vergard and... Dr. Crates? Yes!" Nevil said enthusiastically. Xaphan and Sara remained silent, giving the pair and their avatars a suspicious look. "Could you tell me where you're going?" Nevil then asked. Xaphan became a bit nervous, but restrained himself. His master was a tricky, old man. There's no way he would be fooled in giving away vital information.
In the meantime, the rabbit was approaching a silvery elf-like being, trying to find out about it's nature.

*CLICK* *WHIR* *THUMP*
The stranger looks to his unconscious foe, then his unconscious BA, and for the first time shows fear. Closer the sounds come, and he has heard this sound before. Emerging into view is a large robot, eyes not focused on anything particular. It is one of the many Nexus guardians that normally would be at the center of the Arena. This one has went haywire, however, and now wonders around aimlessly.
The stranger knows that if it senses them, it will attack, for that is all it knows how to do. Nothing he has can hurt the beast, even his BA alone would not even dent it..yet. He considers waking up his foe. Maybe they can at least distract the creature long enough for him to make a safe retreat.

Mordekai didn't know what was happening around here, but nevertheless he didn't want to stay to find out - after all, the Nexus worlds are extremely weird at times, and trying to understand the events can take an eternity - so he decided to search the place some more along with Mephisto. He didn't search much as another loud sound was heard, only that this time it was low instead of high pitched.
Interested and bored of searching the place randomly, Mordekai decided to follow the direction from which the sound came to find out its source. He and Mephisto found out a very unusual elf with golden hair - he was taller than Mordekai, and elves are usually smaller than humans. The elf spotted them immediately and quickly asked in an arrogant tone: "Hey, who are you? You don't seem to be a creature from this place."
Mordekai was surprised about the elf's tone - elves are usually kind and friendly, but this one was arrogant. Moreover, the elf didn't attack Mephisto, an ArchDevil from the depths of Hell, on sight. But this was all the better for Mordekai, since another possibly powerful enemy is something which was very unwelcome right now, after the whole problems with the insects and that Abomination. Mordekai was hesitant to tell his name, but then he figured out that nobody knows about anyone in this whole chaos in the Nexus, so how would giving the name hurt in any way?
"I am Mordekai, and this is my Battle Avatar, Mephisto. Now, who might you be?"
"I am nameless - I don't have any name, but as you can see I'm a traveler of the Nexus like you."
"Usually elves are nice and friendly and would never discuss matters with someone who has an Archdevil as an ally. And, if you say you're a Nexus traveler, then where is your battle avatar?"
"Well obviously, I'm not an usual elf. As you can see I'm much taller than the average elf. Oh and about the Battle Avatar, I don't have one. Actually, I am my own Battle Avatar. I am strong enough to venture into the Nexus all by myself." - he seemed very proud about this.
"Ok, now, here's the thing: what was with that sound we heard earlier, coming from here?" asked Mordekai
"Oh. I destroyed one of those Orbs." - he stopped for a second and thought that Mordekai may not know about those Orbs - "But you don't know what I'm talking about, do you?"
"As a matter of fact, I do. I destroyed one of those Orbs as well, but I didn't hear something even close to what sound I heard that was coming from here."
"You don't hear any kind of sound if you're near the Orb - the sound can be heard only from far away." - he paused a bit - "So, you say that you destroyed an Orb? Do you also have some sound-barrier spells like me, I suppose?"
"Sound-barrier spells?" asked Mordekai confused.
"By your answer, I suppose you didn't cast any kind of sound-barrier before destroying the Orb. Which makes me wonder... did you encounter a huge Abomination beast after destroying the Orb?"
"Yes. How did you know?"
"Those Orbs - when you destroy them, they send out a very loud and high-pitched sound to anyone that isn't close to them. This sound attracts those colossal abominations. It's more like a trap for destroying the wrong Orb." - he pauses for a moment, after which he continued - "And you say you encountered one of those abominations? How did you escape from its wrath? Don't tell me you managed to defeat it..." the elf grows a bit nervous, as he somehow fears Mephisto's power now.
"We didn't defeat it. We started running away from it, and just as it was about to catch us, a high-pitched sound made the abomination leave us alone since it started moving towards the source of that sound."
"I see." - the elf got more relaxed now - "Someone else must have destroyed another Orb, without any kind of precaution against those abominations."
"What did you mean with More like a trap for destroying the wrong Orb?" asked Mordekai.
"This question is either silly or you don't know anything about those Orbs... tell me something, why did you destroy that Orb?"
"It was a mistake actually. Mephisto was targeting some kind of metallic insects with an ability that strikes in an area-of-effect, and he hit the Orb."
"Haha! It was a mistake? You know nothing about these Orbs?"
Mordekai was somewhat annoyed by the elf's arrogant tone: "How about you tell me what I need to know about these Orbs?"
"The portal to the next realm lies within one of these Orbs from this place - it's impossible to know which one for sure, you just have to destroy every one of them until you find out the correct one. Of course, to make things a lot worse - like most things in the Nexus are - destroying a wrong Orb results in a very loud high-pitched noise sent to anyone who is not near the Orb. This sound attracts those colossal abominations who will eventually attack and kill the one that destroyed the wrong Orb. After I figured this out, I tried using one of my spells which creates a special barrier that distorts all sounds that come from inside the barrier and get out, to distort the sound the Orbs make when they get destroyed. And it worked: no abomination came after I destroyed one of the Orbs."
The elf continues: "That's probably why you heard a low-pitched sound from here, since my barrier distorted the otherwise high-pitched sound that would attract the abomination."
"And the other high-pitched sound that saved me and Mephisto?"
"Someone must have destroyed an Orb without any sound-barrier. Most likely, they have been killed by the abomination."
"Do you mind if we search the portal together? Your sound-barrier spell is an excellent asset!"
"Sure, I think the more help you can get in this place, the better." replied the elf.

The beast of blades had located a bridge of sorts, slightly above them and to their left; it made its way across the wax structure and down the wall to the hall, towing the rest of its party. The four made it to horizontal ground at last and the humanoids began to untie themselves from their metallic ride.
“Going? Why, wherever the spirit of adventure takes us!” Vergard proclaimed, as though this were the most glorious news anyone had ever heard. Then he scowled. “Though that fiend, Abrix, has put something of a kink in our travels what with his constant rearranging of the Nexus. Obviously he has no idea he is dealing with Don Vergard, master of music, singer of spells, who slew the damsel of Norriston and rescued the ogre of—wait…” Vergard appeared to lose his train of thought here, for he trailed off. A moment or two passed and he seemed to have forgotten he had been speaking entirely, as he started gazing up above him as though following a will-o-wisp only he could see.
Stelis, in the mean time, peered up at the giant rabbit come to inspect him. “Hello. I don’t believe we’ve met before,” he said to it politely.
The beast of blades stayed crouched in the background all the while, watching the other group with the same intensity it was scrutinized with. Dr. Crates untied himself from the creature at last, and gazed bemusedly at Don Vergard off in his fantasy land. When the old bard didn’t seem inclined to continue speaking, he spoke up himself, feeling it would be courteous to keep the conversation going.
“So,” he inquired of Nevil, “If you don’t mind me asking—how did you come to be here in the Nexus?”

Stelis and the Bunny suddenly listen as if hearing something. The Don looks up, for the first time his mind seemingly clear. "Yes my old friend. We must go. The taint has to be removed. It is time."
Stelis nods but says. "I am afraid."
The girl goes over and puts her hand in Stelis' hand. "Don't worry, me and bunny will be with you." For some reason that seems to bolster him.
Vergard looks at the others in the group. "We must go. You may follow if you like, but it won't matter..in the end you will all be together. One last change..one more shift in reality. Do not be afraid, no harm will come to those in our charge."
((Pausing long enough to see if the others follow))

What…? Dr. Crates looked at the old bard with no small amount of consternation; somehow this sudden clearing of thought in the bizarre old man was far more worrying than his sudden mood swings and shifts in memory had been.
“Taint?” Crates was half-tempted to pull out his pen light and look for signs of concussion, but some inner feeling told him it was unnecessary. “What do you mean?” Are they talking about Abrix? He hadn’t been in the Nexus for very long, relatively speaking; it was the only possibility that came to mind.

The three started searching the hive for those Orbs, in one of them being the portal to the next realm hidden. The first three Orbs they encountered were not the 'correct' ones, but thanks to the strange elf's sound-barrier spell the sound made when these Orbs were destroyed was distorted and the abominations weren't attracted to those places.
After seeing all three Orbs incorrect, Mordekai started to lose his patience: "This is insane! There are a lot of these Orbs, we may not be able to find the correct one in quite some time... this is getting tiresome."
"Indeed, but what is there to do?", the elf replied, "Unless you want to be stuck here forever, we should try all these Orbs for the portal... at best we'll eventually find it."
Mordekai didn't like the situation at all but understood that it's best to keep searching.
Eventually they found out another Orb. The Elf summoned a sound-barrier around it using his magical powers, and Mephisto hit it with the Dark Nova afterwards. The Orb started to change its color chaotically and very fast for a few seconds, the same as with all Orbs before, but then instead of fading to a black color, the Orb became pure White, with some reflective texture.
"Could this be it?" asked Mordekai anxiously.
After a short while the Orb started to change its shape... it enlarged and became a big square portal.
"YES!" - said the elf satisfied - "This is the portal! Now, let us - ", he wasn't able to finish the sentence, as because of their enthusiasm they didn't pay attention and one of those metallic scorpion-like creatures piked the elf in his chest with its sting from behind. The elf started to scream of pain, and Mephisto used his dark powers to strike the metallic creature - it was hit so hard that it was pushed for some 2 meters until it hit the wall of the hive tunnel. The elf was released but after that he crashed on the ground without screaming or moving at all - he was dead.
Because the metallic insect was pushed out of the tunnel's way, it could be seen what was behind it - a swarm of these creatures coming this way with anger in them. Mordekai knew that this is a battle who couldn't be won anyway, and he decided to step into the portal along with Mephisto and leave this place for good. These creatures, being native to this place, are unable to enter a portal to another realm, so they couldn't follow.

“Shall we go?”, the old wingless man asked.
"Sure, through the corridor then.", replied Coshma’, hoping to obtain more answers from the other man.
“So… what’s your name? I don’t think I got to know it yet.”
“My name is such that is not for the ears of foreigners.", he replied, looking down at Coshma’ as if he was inferior to him.
“I understand.. But what about the wings? Why don’t you have them in this form? What happened?” said Coshma’, a bit annoyed by the old man’s last reply and attitude.
"It's a long and a tragic story.
*he let's out a sigh and his shoulders drop.*
1237 years long story to be exact.
*he raises his posture and continues.*
But the ending hasn't been written yet."
“Well, 1237 years is quite a long time where I come from… a really long time…”
"It is a time not taken lightly in my world either. But that is only a part of my life.
*his eyes darken and his face becomes grim.*
The part that I got for trusting my own."
“Trusting your own?”, replied Coshma’, without losing the old man from his sight.
“Betrayal.”, Intervenes Djenn.
“Indeed, I was betrayed by almost…”
But before ending the phrase, the world started spinning around the three, leaving them in what seemed to be another dimension.
“What… what was that?”
“I do not know…”
“Shhhhhh!” The old man points at two robots sitting in front of them, but facing the other way.
“They haven’t noticed us yet”
*Coshma’ and Djenn take the old man’s advice and stand quietly, listening to the other.*
"We have the advantage of the first strike. Should I transform we will lose that advantage. If we only had a way to conceal it…”
*Coshma’ looks at Djenn, seemingly having a plan, and then whispers to the old man.*
“We’ve got something that’ll do!”
“What exactly?”
“Just stay close and pay attention.”, says Djenn, starting to move towards the robot.
*The old man follows Djenn until the later does something that may seem crazy, uses his Heaven’s Blast in front of the robots, attracting their attention, at the same time the old man unsheathing his weapon, transforming to the Angel and taking flight, apparently unnoticed by the robots*
*Djenn attacks one of the robots, doing some damage and then passes to the resistance stance, bringing the two robots close to each other*
“I would really need some help!” Shouts Djenn to the Angel, whom was preparing for a dive attack.
*The Angel dives, using his runic blade skill and damaging both the robots, the damaged one being destroyed, and Djenn*
SCRRRRRRRR
The damaged robot falls to the ground, seemingly having a malfunction and explodes, creating what seemed to be numerous wormholes.
“What the…”
Coshma’, Djenn and the Angel get sucked in different wormholes, thus ending up in different places.
(( This should be my last post in here, at least for some time, since I've got difficulties in finding time to spend for this. Thus I wish GL to all remaining players. ))

Huh?
"So... What taint, again?" Nevil asked. He was very confused about what's going on, paying little attention to Dr. Crates. "Listen, I have studied the Nexus a long time, but I have never heard about the string that holds all worlds together being corrupted." Nevil tried to interrupt Vergard.
Xaphan stuck close to Nevil's right side and made no clear sign of readiness to follow Vergard.

"A fool has corrupted two nodes, trying to bend them to his will. The nodes are what hold the Nexus together. Weaken them, and all will be destroyed, not just the Nexus." the Don says no more and you see an energy flow from him. A glowing portal opens.
Almost immediately hundreds of 'walkers' and 'flyers' charge out of it. The four just calmly wait till the enemy gets close. "Bright Blitz", one calls out, the other "Rabbit Kick". The speed of both is incomprehensible. Foes fall, but you can not even see the two Battle Avatars except as blurs. All the foes fall in under a minute. Both Battle Avatars 'shut down', but the old man touches them with a staff and they are awake again. All four step through the gate..

A small simple bulding stands in front of me. I am in a small cave Djenn or Coshma are nowhere to be seen.
*It seems we got separated from the two travelers from before. The robot seemed to cause a disturbance in the Nexus.
They might be made from the Nexus itself.
*But how could anyone shape the Nexus to his liking? Unless they already had the center...
...but then we'd be long dead al ready. There must be some...
*...other way to control the Nexus from the inside.
This "smaller center" might be enough for us. Let's proceed. We advance into the building keeping our guard up. The entrance is rather narrow so we fold our wings together. The plain entrance hallway opens up to an intricate reception area. There is a dark skinned girl sitting behind an antique oak desk that conceals her up to her neck. Her eyes open wide in admiration.
"OH Wooow!", she screams in excitement and jumps from behind the desk.
"You're so pretty! We never get your kind here.", she pauses for a moment to think. "Actually you're the first. Could you open those?", she points to my, his, wings and smiles innocently like a child waiting for ice-cream. We keep our guard up.
*She does not seems dangerous.
-Here anything anything is anything what it seems.
The girl looks at me confused. She seems to concentrate for a moment and stares at my forehead. Then her mouth turns to a line and she becomes serious.
"There's two of you in there, isn't there?", she says dead serious. She seems to ponder on the idea for a while. Then she brightens up.
"Well, the more the merrier. So are you going to show me those wings of yours?", she looks at me with puppy eyes again. Then she seems to notice the rapier for the first time.
"Oh, you won't need that here. It wouldn't work anyways.", she says in the same chipper voice.
-She is speaking the truth.
*How do we know that?
-Just feel the air.
*It's purged.
"Yeah this is a sanctuary. And a skill shop too. You can get all kind of nice things from here.", she says like she was just listening to two person talking to each other on the street.
"You posses the ability to read minds?", we ask the raven haired girl.
"Just when they interfere with each other.", she says and shrughs.
"Are you going to put that thing away already?", she says a little anxious.
"Though that gem is very beautiful.", she raises her eyes up to me from the sword.
"Emeralds are my favourite.", she says chipperly. We sheath the rapier.
-We did not change places!
"Well D'uh!", the girl explains.
"You can only do that outside of here. So can you spread your wings for me now?", she looks to my eyes with overflowing expectation.
"Who could say no to those viridian eyes of yours dear?", we say with syrup voice and spread our wings wide in one swift motion filling the room in white feathers. The girls eyes rip wide open in awe.
"Vauuuu!", she says with adoration.
"Those are SOOOO pretty!", then she knits her browns.
"But why do you have five of them? Don't angels usually have two wings?", then she brightens up like she got an idea.
"Is it because there are two of you in there?", but she quickly knits her browns again.
"But that still leaves one over...", she seems to look through me as she thinks about the problem. Then her face turns to one of surprise.
"You have wings too! Five of them like him does!", then her face saddens.
"But they're all look all shred and bloody.", she says in a weeping voice.
"And they're so faint too.", she sweeps a tear out of her eye corner.
"Almost like they're all gone.", she continues and sniffs. We bring our wings around the two, no three, of us like a shed and hug her.
"Don't be sad. That's what were here to correct. One day they'll be all white and beautiful again.", we comfort her and swipe the stray tears off her face. She looks up and smiles slightly.
"Really?", she nods.
"Good.", then her face brightens and she's her chippy self again.
"They're much prettier that way. Come! I'll offer you some dinner. You must be starving. Have you eaten anything here?", her face darkens a little.
"You should unless you want to become all grim.", then as a winde she changes back to happy herself again.
"I'm a great cook. We have all kinds of great foods here. There is a little something from every world so I can make up all kinds of exotic recipes. Like this one time...", she babbles while leading me deeper into the house.

Inside the portal the four strangers gaze on a puslating purple crystal. The base is rather large, and it comes up to a point, but it gives the impression that more of it is under the ground. The purple light it gives off is sickly looking and faint. Just being in the room is painful.
"Bunny.." the girl starts and then hesitates for a second. She looks at the man. "Is it going to hurt?"
"I don't know. I don't think so." he assures.
"Bunny..destroy that ... thing." The bunny hops up to it turns its back and thrust both of its hind legs out. There is a huge shattering sound and the crystal is broken into billions of pieces. Almost instantly the girl and bunny start ... melting. They flow together and ooze to where the crystal was. Something happens and they start solidifying. They form a bright blue crystal, much like the old..only healthy looking and bright. Instantly the area feels .. cleaner.
The man says to himself. "One down, one to go. But he will be there. We will need..Allies." He sends energy out, seeking any who would help defeat the source of the corruption...
((Basically if you want to help (and meet each other) all you have to do is let the energy envelop you and you will be transported to where he is)).

Dr. Crates watched horrified through the portal as the pair dissolved and took on their new, singular form. No fanfare, no spray of weaponry—they were just gone. He felt sick to his stomach; was that what the old bard had meant by “you will all be together”? Fused as part of the Nexus, torn from form and sentience?
He could feel the bard’s energy calling him, and the beast of blades was pushing at his back, urging him onwards. He had trusted the creature before; he was beginning to wonder—should he have?
Swallowing, he allowed himself to be called anyway. He had trusted them so far, and after all, he had very little to lose.

Those who step through the portal (or energy, or however you want to get there) are instantly confronted with a sight like no other. A rather large and warped creature sitting in a chair with a gross looking machines connected to it. A small man, who resembles a rat, is standing in front of the creature. All around you see vats..full of robots. Some of the 'walkers', some of the insects, etc. One kind, that looks like giant worms have not been seen before. As you watch some of them 'hatch' and exit the pods. Only to be replaced by small versions that start growing. You estimate that this place produces 3 of each kind every 5 minutes..
Already there are 10 of the walkers, metal scorpians, and flyers. No worms..yet that you can see.
The man turns and faces you. "Fools, I am the master of the Nexus. You have come to your doom!" he is obviously insane.

As I walked through the energy behind Dr. crates, I was instantly confronted with a sight like no other. A rather large and warped creature sitting in a chair with a gross looking machines connected to it. A small man, who resembles a rat, is standing in front of the creature. All around you see vats..full of robots. Some of the 'walkers', some of the insects, etc. One kind, that looks like giant worms have not been seen before.

Already there are 10 of the walkers, metal scorpians, and flyers. No worms..yet that you can see.
The man turns and faces you. "Fools, I am the master of the Nexus. You have come to your doom!" he is obviously insane.
"Eh... Master, eh? You obviously have no idea how to utilise the nexus to your own proper advantage." Nevil said to himself. He waited, since he suddenly realised there were several other creatures entering the room exactly like he had done.
