The Last Poster Wins! [V9]

[The Nonexistent Tazz]

Heatcrack: Well, good luck with that...We have no idea where we'd even find one to begin with, but that would actually work out perfectly...Maybe. I think we can hold out a little on our own-we'll get to you if we get desperate.

*The problem with that idea is...Have you MET a Metatorian before? The rod only works on souls you've physically met before.*

Ominous: The issue is, we haven't meta Metatorian before...Indeed, some are as old as Baal...

Tazz:...Some probably MET Baal...

Ominous:...Hrm...It looks like confronting Baal is within our near future the way things keep adding up.

Rebecca: Fortune favors us then-several paths converge to one.

Tazz: Knowing his MO, it's likely he'll take on a squad of ten of us singlehandedly for the crown...Apoph, Nightmare, Wander, it goes without saying that you three have to get in on the fight to get your requests fulfilled. Or whatever.

*WANDER, APOPH and NIGHTMARE are STATIC CHOICES for this matchup-please choose from your remaining seven. You WILL die, and plenty, so it is safe to say that the ELDER SOULS are off-limits for this match.*

[Sir Sivelos]

*APOPH cracks his knuckles and grins.* Apoph: Ohohoh, I've been waiting for this.

Nightmare: I don't really care for him, personally. I approve of his methods, yes, but he's just so bland. If I must...

Hold on, hold on, wait. Do we need to kill him, or just reduce his health low enough? 'Cause I think Apoph has other things in mind.

Apoph: Don't you dare...

Light Chaos: Ahem… As much as this may be bad timing, I'm afraid I must depart for a bit.

What?? Why?

Light Chaos: Important business in the Gardens. Fear not, I will return shortly.

Uh… Well, okay then. Go ahead. *LC nods and flies off. LC is no longer a viable choice, nor in the party for the time being.*

Anyway, count me in on this.

[Ganyu]

Death can never depart us though rumor has it some beings reign over death itself and they might be referred to as a God (capitalized for distinction from gods). *goes into off tangent mumblings*

[Sir Sivelos]

*cough* DEITIES *cough*

Maybe there's a big machine that lets people respawn. Who knows...

*LC gets in the usual range of the Gardens...And finds a crater. BAAL's war machine probably had to go through the Gardens to get into the mulitverse considering how isolated it was, and probably took his servents as enemies (probably rightfully so). Owch.*

*You're not even paying attention to game mechanics.*

*cough* DEITIES *cough*

Maybe there's a big machine that lets people respawn. Who knows...

*The respawn system is maintained by an organization known, creatively, as Respawns Incorporated. They're fairly generous in their business policies (usually willing to let you have a few freebies for unreasonable circumstances) and usually bet whoever's dying is going to be an adventurer (and thus have tons of gold) rather than pay for their services immediately. However, they themselves possess no superpowers and merely keep REALLY well hidden. You suspect they are a Superdimension-spanning force, somehow there before the DAED's invention, but you cannot prove it.*

[Sir Sivelos]

Light Chaos: That… Why would he... *A look of rage comes across LC's face (if a skeletal creature can do that), which is out of character for such a normally level-headed demon.*

---

I wonder what LC had to do.

Light Chaos: THAT IMPUEDENT FOOL! *LC reappears nigh instantaneously, literally seething with anger.*

Uh…

Light Chaos: WE ARE GOING AFTER BAAL THIS INSTANT!

What happened!?

Light Chaos: The… The Gardens. Destroyed… I'm guessing Baal had to enter through the Gardens in order to reach Apophis-Ra's territory.

…Wait, hold on a minute.

Light Chaos: …?

That makes no sense, Baal couldn't have entered through the Gardens. I'M the only person in Reality who can open the shortcut. That door reads a code that not even the best shape shifters can replicate.

Apoph: Perhaps he tried to enter through the and then razed the place after he found out he couldn't go through?

Light Chaos: HAAAAAAAAAAAARGH-- *LC is having a fit right now. He'll be back in a few minutes once his anger dies down.*

Whats going on!? Is there a battle coming up?

Thunder: If thats it, im ready to battle!

[Sir Sivelos]

Possibly.

And no, trust me on this, you are NOT ready for Baal. I've heard rumors about him, and they have nothing good to say. Apparently, he's the Bonus Boss to end all bonus bosses. But, in this case, I guess he's a Boss.

[EmpireCrusher203]

Baal sounds like a name you would a boss
