Hey all, I'm here to announce one last thing while walking up to this Big Boss Battle--Big being very literal this time. The final enemy type--the one that Maple in Radiant Void is--is Titan. These enemies are even larger than traditional raid enemies, to the point where they occupy multiple...

The Voidlands seemed to be the same almost universally, with a blotchy, purple sky, dusty wastelands all over, and lifeless plateaus for as far as they could see. But despite that, there was a sizzling feeling in the air, that tingling power of Radiance that permeated the air despite the scenery...

"Ready... and... now!" They ran through the tree's opening the moment Xernatus willed them aside, revealing a completely ruined interior. Walls once brimming with life were instead covered in scorches and cracks; previously red and glowing from Eterna corruption, it was now blackened with...

"...We're about to enter," Diyem said darkly, already bringing his Shadows and coalescing them into a warhammer. "...Say, Diyem, why do you turn your Shadows into a... that, anyway?" "I've generally done better in close quarters," Diyem replied. "Yes, but why that?" Owen asked. "...Why a...

"Well... Outside the tree, usually, he would check the roots and do a lap around each day to pass the time. Inside the tree, he usually went in the back, where it was far. There's a passageway further up, but maybe I can open it... when we get there..."

"Sure, but you're also weaker here," Owen pointed out. "We'll need to be careful and not lose pace against them. I think even if we're really durable, we should keep our distance until there's an opening..."

Prior to going to the Tree of Life, Owen and Diyem have a quick chat about the Eterna parasite and what it felt like. It is their strongest exposure to Eterna corruption yet, and Owen knows what it feels like. After getting everything prepared, Diyem offers to all who were willing to listen to...

"More like they'll be chasing us like we're prey," Owen murmured, looking down. "I don't think we'll be able to do much against Maple until she's weakened. And Eien, well..."

"Well, it already knows what it looks like from last time," Owen explained to Bahamut, though he did consider it again regardless. "Diyem and I tested it out. As long as I don't funnel that energy to him directly, he should be fine. I think we're going to try to get in the way of Maple more than...

Xernatus isn't super familiar with a lot of things anymore; even Xerneas himself did not go to modern towns or other settlements very often, and only heard about it all secondhand. Grudgingly, he followed, but seems self-conscious about the stares... Silver only vaguely recalls it, saying that...

"...I think I won't be taken for a fool, Brisa," Toffee said with a modest giggle. "You had me down easily. I don't recall making a single scratch on you! ...Why do you look so roughed up, dear?" Truffle came flying in next, but he stopped midway, like he wasn't sure how to approach. There was...

Most of Team Spectrum and their Ultra Shades floated behind Diyem as dark phantoms. As nothing but silhouettes, similar to Wishkeeper, they were both weightless and bodiless, but still audible to one another and to, of course, their host. A few, such as Bahamut, were still taking on physical...

"Mmnn... oooh... that... What happened?" Toffee blinked herself awake. Whatever strange energy had taken her over, it was gone, now. "Oh, I must have lost... I don't remember doing much of anything to you, Brisa. You're just so strong!" She seemed to have trouble standing.

Logging many, many words written and also published 14,138 words for Special Episode 8. Changing around Owen's perks: Getting: Augmented, Tireless (and Determined) to replace Lithe Stance and Second Chance (and Guardian Stance) Deep Focus to replace Hyperactive Wind Up, Tough to replace...

"Alright, alright." Soda waved his hand. "I promise, no shooting Cibus." ...It sounded like he meant it, at least in the moment. Buffet nodded and ferried Dave back home. It was a long, tense silence, like he was afraid that Soda would hear him... But eventually, Buffet spoke. "I'm... I'm sorry."

Soda cocked his head to the side. "Right, that's right. Still gotta help Maple and all that. Sure, you go and do that. I'll be up here waiting, alright? Heh... don't keep me waiting too long. Can get kinda boring up here with just the Unown and crap." But he was at least letting him go.

"SKRAAAaaaaaa..." The cry faded out with the final Blacklight explosion, splitting apart the land and leaving Toffee in its wake, unconscious. And this time, the vitality sensor was properly down. "And that... seems to be..." Incineroar tip-toed over to Toffee to check. "...it! Toffee is down...

"Aaaah!" Yet another shriek, and this time it looked like Brisa had truly hit her mark. Incineroar stared up at the vitality sensor again, watching the bar for Toffee rapidly deplete, and he held his breath this time. He didn't really know. He saw it rise a little, then fall again, just near...

The onslaught continued, Toffee swooping down to clash against Brisa's barrier, destroying it outright, followed quickly by another flurry of blows. "My goodness... It seems that Toffee has found her second wind! But it doesn't look like her attacks are doing very much! Could this be the end?!"...

Everyone. I have received word from Pop that the Tree of Life has little time remaining. We have done all we could to prepare: tomorrow, we strike. Xernatus has approached me as well, and he will be assisting me. With luck, we can turn the phantoms against Maple rather than have them stand idle...
