Eodum could feel the incoming attack. Its hair stood on end, spiking every which way. A tingle crawled throughout the room, and the hum enhanced the feeling of danger. The light at the back of the undead's throat didn't help. Danger was the only thing Eodum could feel, and it knew it had to run before it lost much of its Hp. Eodum quickly dashed at Henry and Sheila, going as fast as it could go. The tingle and static it could feel in its fur only helped to increase Eodum's sense of urgency.
Finally, after what seemed to take forever but only took a few seconds, Eodum reached Henry and Sheila. The void assisted Eodum's actions and shot out hands of darkness to gather the two closer to Eodum. The sudden move made by the void raced pain through Eodum's mind. A headache bloomed only to threaten to become worse. Before it could, Eodum opened a portal to the void, where when the three plunged in, the void in Eodum's body rushed to reformed with its main body.
The pressure Eodum felt on its brain halted its assault and disappeared. The pain kept in Eodum's mind, but it stopped growing and consuming Eodum. Henry and Sheila were knocked back to reality when they felt their weightless body in the void. The two swam throughout it, remembering the recent events, and the undead's appearance in the battle. The two looked around the void, seeing all the stars, lights, and celestial bodies Eodum had mentioned in its description of the place.
"It's beautiful." Henry muttered to himself.
Sheila watched in awe, "Wow…"
The two suddenly felt a slight urging sensation from behind them. The pull and attraction of it forced the two to turn themselves to see the cause of the urge. Their eyes both opened in shock, each one staring at a different star. Sheila stared at the golden sun with the miasma-like mist. She felt an immediate connection with it, and its holy and ominous presence.
Henry watched the flaming star with rings of water and ice. Its flames licked the water ring, keeping it in a liquid state while the ice ring magically stayed solid. Despite the incinerating flames' contact with the water, the water stayed liquid instead of dissipating into steam. The two rings continued to encircle and spin around the star, and Henry watched in amazement of the hot and cold star.
Being practically invisible in the void, Henry and Sheila failed to see Eodum floating in between them. While they watched the two other celestial bodies, Eodum found its eyes affixed to the last of the entities. The black hole absorbed all light, the only recognizable parts of it being the lack of stars in that area, the distortion of the space around it, and the sea of lights whirling into it. The dazzling scene mesmerized Eodum as it felt a sense of familiarity that the other two felt.
Suddenly, a wave of energy pulsed from the bodies. The golden sun let out a wave of warm and cozy, holy-feeling energy, tinted gold with the purple mist traveling along with it. The flaming sphere let out a pulse of fire-like energy, ice and water lining it. The black hole let out a pulse of pure darkness and pressure, a few of the lights caught on it and traveled along it.
The waves washed over the three, energy running through their bodies. Greedily, the three's bodies started absorbing the energy at a rapid pace. A small glow emitted from all of them but Eodum as it seemed to instead absorb the light around it. Eodum's body overflowed with the energy, in a constant cycle of absorbing and spitting out. Henry and Sheila were experiencing a similar situation of absorbing and overflowing with energy.
The entire process was painful and agonizing. Energy burning, cooling, energizing, draining, destroying, healing, emptying, and filling the three all at once. In an attempt to escape the cycle of torture, Eodum forced a portal open. The three were spat out of the void, doing their best to leave the cause of their current agony. They slowly stumbled to their feet to see the inside of the inn once more.
The same scene as before, wrecked furniture, wrecked bodies, necromancers, and a lumbering undead were within the bar. What was new was where they stood previously, was a carved out section of the inn. Scorched and still buzzing with electricity and energy, houses upon houses down the line felt the damage of the destructive beam. Though, the Void Horse party found that was at the least of their attention.
They all seemed to be radiating power, brimming with it, ready to overflow but barely hanging on. Each could feel the respective energy of the celestial bodies they felt familiarity with.
Sheila could feel herself emanating good. She felt closer to Gnos than ever before. A strange mist also encircled her like it did that sun. She was staring with amazement and horror strewn across her face as the mist rotted the floor beneath her, and all metal, excluding her equipment, seemed to rust and fall apart when touched. Flies in the air, attracted by the bodies, hit the floor all around her.
Henry was in a similar experience; he was slightly larger with more intense flames. The fire of his body rose and fell, and the wood around him burned and blackened in his presence. The air near shimmered because of the heat, only interrupted by two perpendicular rings, one of water and one of ice. They were set spinning diagonally and intersected right at where the core of Henry's body would be. The wood beneath him froze over on one side and became waterlogged on the other when too close to the rings, showing they held some sort of magical presence.
Eodum however, could feel its pull on the objects around it. Bits of dust and debris flew to Eodum, orbited around it, and disappeared into Eodum's body. Shadows shifted, wavering when near Eodum, pulling towards the rat, and the light seemed to distort in a whorl being sucked into Eodum. A slight growl came from the rat, whether it was by the want to fight or the extreme hunger it felt, Eodum didn't know. All Eodum knew was that it needed to consume.
