*...Nothing...Yet...*

*...Your mind drifts to Blackfox, for some reas-*

The Black: <FOR THE LOVE OF F***!!! ILLUSIONIST!>

*Wow. Quicker on the draw than apparently most of you. In any case, DIMENTIO suddenly springs into unprecedentedly fast action, causing LIGHT-BASED ATTACKS to always, always fail. Sure as good steel...*

*BONDS UNBROKEN: 9/99.*

*...Someone's been hacking at it during the whole wave, SPECIFICALLY the HELMSMAN.*

Helmsman: ...?!

*Stereotypical silent type, it seems. However, he's no stoic. He's definitely shaking-but out of fear or rage, you cannot tell. He tries several TECHNIQUES related to LIGHT-BASED ILLUSIONS, but alas, none work, leaving him exposed, and he narrowly rushes out of the range of a GRAND ARTILLERY's attack, darting around the room like a madman.*

*Also in the room is MARLON, an Elder Soul that Tazz completely forgot about. You should keep track of this stuff yourself! He's been plowing through a flank you haven't been paying attention to. Lastly, another Elder Soul, though this guy, wielding a Katana of Platinum and one of Onyx, is completely unfamiliar. He's also been plowing thorugh a flank. In addition, several NINJAS have slipped by your defenses entirely at this point, and have also been aiding the defense; some GRAND ARTILLERIES jacked up on Accuracy boosts clear away the ones from your positions. Oh, and the Cueballs are now acting like they existed. Cueballs can't lie, so this literally means THE HELMSMAN was seriously manipuating a LOT of light. Wow.*

Marlow: Aw, and that was going so well...

Unkonwn Elder Soul: Indeed...

Nidhogg: Use your other asssset against them! Speed shall prevail!

*The Helmsman doesn't think so; he leaps out of the building with nary a word. The offensive forces, the ones you are fighting, look quite taken aback by the sudden retreat, as if anti-illusionary fields were kind of a big deal to him.*

*With everyone revealed, plowing through the wave should be a cakewalk.*
