PHTAGN! IA! IA!

> Phtagn

The blank void shakes. Impossible colors flash from holes in the nothing around you. Shapes that defy your mind flit around, simultaneously directly in your face and infinitely far away. The air feels like carpet as you take shuddering breaths. Voices swarm through your head, speaking tongues that make your mind recoil in horror. The void below the blocks of static before you opens wide like a maw.

Nothing happens.

> Error

Blue rectangles full of white text erupt out of nowhere, one after another, each with a double beep, one high, followed by one low.

They shatter and reform, whirling around in a maelstrom of impossibly sharp objects. As they make contact with the monolith made of static, it shatters into a million pieces, and the cyclone of blue quadrilaterals disintegrates into nothingness.

A haze of static hangs in the air, and you collect some to study. As you turn to leave, you see the haze coalesce back into the stairstep monolith.

It flies into the air and hangs there in exactly the way a brick doesn’t. It falls lethally toward you. You drag yourself out of the way just in time.

This is going to be harder than you thought. You can’t use Phtagn again. You can’t use Error again. Only static and E remain.

What will you do next?

[ask-melanc-vivura]

Phtagn again.
