No, that's intentional.
Thank you, corrected.
Maybe this guy was the best option, as terrible as he is.
Wrong. The Butcher does indeed hate one being more than any other, but it's not Draan. That would be Cain, slayer of Abel, who was the Butcher's master back when the Butcher was just a normal bull. And the Butcher hates him all the more, since Cain is the one being it can't touch, or even cut off his connection to its' light, since that would count as harming Cain.
"Hey, what gives! What did you expect when you set us up with this guy, Hinon?"
Oh! It sounds to me like you want something!
Well, she did recommend him as the least likely to pull a sudden yet inevitable betrayal.
What? The Tech proto-Titan or something else?
Eh, with the Source as God, biblical stuff can happen before humanity, it's just a lot of stuff (the Garden, for example) gravitated to Earth. Plus, the White Entity is on earth so it would make sense for other E-Spec stuff to have happened there. And that's before getting into the possibility of achronal origins.
Yup.
That should say 'Maltus'.
That should say 'built'.
That should say 'Maltus'.
Did Draan steal all of Orion's rage? If so, then I can't wait to see him get angry again and go for Round 2. On the downside, Orion's never going to trust Paul ever again.
So is it safe to say Paul is now fluent in Mother Box?
Oh-ho. About bloody time you woke up, sleepy-head. And before you ask: Situation Now All Fouled Up. At least our protagonists now have another pair of hands to try and slap the near-god-like ancient immortal chock full of Rage into surrender.
Blame it on your surroundings.
Nice, not even a moment's hesitation pinging it as a battle station. Though that would be like calling a supermodel 'plain'.
Dangit, OL! Blundering into romantic lines without even trying, still? At least he can't start any other relationships while he's with Jade.
Oooh. I think I get what happened to him when he walked in: The facility leeched all his energy away, and it's taken this long for him to recharge.
...And now he knows where he is, and what he's inside.
HEh. Probably a religious experience on par with finding the actual Ark of the Covenant. Qward's greatest weapon.
Guess it makes a handy conduit for touching Orion's soulstuff, and draining it of Rage.
I suspect that would get the Butcher's attention. While they aren't as absolutely hostile to each other as some of the Entities, they still get on about as well as two giant emotional monsters normally get along. (Picture your favourite Kaiju battle here.)
If nothing else, she can try to run, and get word out, assuming people haven't noticed Turi shuddering and rolling over as what's within wakes up.
Probability of success... Low.
Earth Bullshit™, baby. Their track record speaks for them.
Let me guess: He's thinking 'Nice balance. I'll keep that design in mind.'
Though you did take it back later, once it was safe to. Not hardly the same thing here.
I can just picture a Maltusian sitting there for days, watching the sky as it rolls from day to night, and then get up like they took a five minute break.
We aren't quite at the Godzilla threshold yet, but honestly, Kalmin might be able to do something with Mother box to help.
Sheesh. The inevitable Unwinnable Boss Fight to give you a taste of their tactics and methods. Hopefully OL learnt enough that the inevitable rematch will go his way.
...And why do you look like you're having a religious experience?
"Watch where you're poking those fingers, sirrah!"
Well... That's a worrying evaluation.Let's assume that it can at least glass the surface. Even if it can't crack the mantle, that much damage will not make the locals happy.
Not easily, I suspect. It's more than likely capable of killing Maltusians, and anything else is just fodder compared to that.
...Assuming it hasn't developed countermeasures against it. Which is probable. It's creators probably wanted to make it unstoppable, after all
I think we can guess the reason: Killing stuff.
And even then, it's a coin-flip?
...Dude."Thank you, dear. Now, Orion, Sweetie, let's have a look at you..."
The Rage may have warped his metaphysique. Whether it;'ll wear off remains to be seen, I bet.
"I'm not sure. But I do know he stole all of his rage."
"Theoretically? It was all mixed in with his Godname..."
"...Where are you going with this?"
"...What."
You absolutely shouldn't given they've kicked Darkseid's ass before.
The Void Hound very specifically blocks Entities.
