Kitty and Knight

The past has shifted.

Follow the cracks.

Selekhael pounces at the elf and the elf flounces away. It all looks very dramatic and showy. Just like the elf's pretentiously long sword. In one smooth motion he draws the weapon and sweeps it at the not-lioness. Being struck by this weapon wouldn't be pleasant, as it is impossible. And impossible things don't get along very well with the Empyrean. Likely not lethal, but ooww. Don't let the elf do that again.

A coy smile tugs at the elf's lips.

"Ah, tricky kitty. The story is still the story even if it comes round on itself again. You'll have trouble fooling me with your silly games."

For Zoph there will likely be a sense of deja vu. Of what just happened and what had happened both occupying the same memory at once. The memories grind against each other like two pieces of broken glass. It really isn't great.

For Sele, she'll feel something building inside her. That wound spring feeling. If the wound spring were made of little hooks and knives and when it comes unwound it's going to do nasty things to her insides. This meddling with time has made certain eventualities impossible. She wouldn't have pounced if the elf hadn't threatened them. And if she pounces then the elf won't threaten them. The snake eats its tail. Paradox is winding itself; a temporal bomb ready to burst. But... a certain intuitive tugging informs Selekhael that due to her connection to entropy and time she could pass this causal hot-potato off to someone else so they suffer the consequences when it comes unwound.

Magic Gal and Magic Guy

The giant amphipod is yanked away after it bites the magician's face. Oddly enough the bite doesn't hurt.

At all.

But it does start bleeding.

Quite a bit, really.

Ah, the joys of pain killing anti-coagulant saliva.

Getting bit by quite a few of these nasty little creatures would likely cause someone to bleed out in short order. And that raises a question, doesn't it? How to get through the sandy tunnel without getting nibbled to death? Maybe if our heroes had something that creatures found more interesting...
