Primordial Facility #1 - Metal Workshop

Dreamweaver

One Thousand Club
GeneralTyrus GeneralTyrus
It had been 4 years since the uncovering of an ancient workshop, believed to have been created by the Primordials millions of years ago. It was not common knowledge, but the truth was that there used to be many Primordials... thousands, in fact. Some were not much more powerful than the average Archmage, while some came close to Princess Luna and Princess Celestia in power; some even surpassed them, such as Discord or the Tarrasque. However, long before the Princesses came into existence, the Primodials had waged a great war among themselves which left most of them dead. With only a hundred or so left, the survivors went into hiding.

Except Discord. He didn't. Obviously.

In the time since the Princesses birth and rise to power, a few Primordials had made themselves known. Some of them had been simple affairs to sort out, while others had been a true challenge even for both the Princesses together. Yet it all ended the same for them either way; they ended up trapped in Luna's scythe, the only reason for it having a soul-catching ability in the first place. Harmony wanted them to round up the Primordials so that they couldn't ever grow in power again and ravage the mortal world.

During the 4 years that the workshop had been uncovered, Equestrian's had been hard at work clearing the debris. It was discovered under the sandy hills of Saddle Arabia, an offshoot of Equestria, and at the Princesses request they had set out to clear the entrance. Now that day had finally arrived, and the Princesses wasted no time in teleporting there to search through the facility. There could be dangerous artifacts or who-knows-what in there; things they couldn't let fall into the wrong hooves.

The door was locked tight, though it was known by this point that Luna's scythe could open the door. The door thought it was just another Primordial due to all the souls trapped in it.

The door itself was made of metal from the looks of it, and was 150 feet tall by 80 feet wide. Big door.

Beside it, one on each side, were these:

They were roughly 70 feet tall and made of iron.

"... I hope those are just a show piece!" Luna said with a strained chuckle as the pair finally walked up to the doors, having just dismissed the Equestrian archaeologists from duty. The archaeologists needed to be as far away as possible, just in case things went south...

Celestia had remember when the news of the Workshop had been brought to them. It was something of a surprised, though not a unexpected one. They'd thought there might have been more thing out there, but they didn't know when or where it'd be found. The news had been a very welcome surprise.

Now, standing before the Workshop doors, Celestia was surprised, impressed by it now that she could see it, and the large statues that seemed to be the guardians for the place. She'd eye them cautiously, wondering if they'd move sooner or late.

Celestia would follow with Luna, nodding, "Yes, I do hope so as well." She'd say softly, her magic ready to pull Aegis and Dawnbreaker from magical hold if needed. She'd look at the door, to the top, "It's impressive to say the least." She'd say, looking to Luna, "Clearly whoever made it cared a great deal about what they were doing." She'd mumble, trotting along slowly, keeping to a slow gait beside Luna.

She was thankful that the Archaeologists had left, they didn't need to be hurt because they were curious about this place, not until it was safe at least. But she knew better, they cared about their work, so they like only traveled a small distance away, hoping they'd see something interesting or of note. Some ponies...

"Lulu, what do you think will be stored here? Weapons? Armor? I already know this place is likely filled with traps." She'd mutter quietly, looking to Luna, before quickly casting a glance around, wondering if anything might be waiting in the wings for them. The unknown had always bothered her, it made her doubt herself, which as a leader, wasn't something she enjoyed having to deal with...

"I don't know what we will discover inside." Luna said with a shrug of her shoulders as they approached the door. She was in full exploratory mode right now, which meant she was in full fighting mode, which meant there was no time for long drawn-out conversations or cute nicknames like 'Tia'. Though that never stopped Celestia from rattling on endlessly.

For all her power, one thing that Princess Celestia was not, was stealthy. Luna was fairly certain that the mare had no concept of 'being quiet'.

As they approached the metal door, a blue orb appeared in the middle of it. "Primordial essence detected." Said the strange blue orb, to which Luna held up her scythe for the thing to scan. However, rather than scan the scythe, the intelligent orb actually scanned Luna herself. Technically it wasn't wrong in saying she had a little bit or primordial in her.
...
After several seconds of scanning, the blue orb turned red and began flashing ominously, before issuing a warning, "Unidentified primordial essence. Lock-down engaged." Said the red orb, before tendrils of red energy began to seep from the orb and into the statues to either side of the Princesses. The massive statues slowly began to creak and groan as they started to move... they likely only had a few moments to devise some sort of plan.

Celestia followed in relative silence, looking to the strange orb that was floating, "This is strange..." She'd mutter, looking at the orb as it floated there. She watched Luna hold out the scythe, only for the Orb to scan Luna, causing Celestia's eyes to widen. She winced as it seemed to switch in tone, calling for a lock-down.

Looking up at the statues as they slowly came to life, there was a flash, and she was wearing her armor, her shield and mace there with her as well, "I could take the right one while you take the left? So that neither of us have to worry about the other?" She'd suggest quickly, giving the mace a twirl in her magic, testing the weight of it, despite clearly being used to carrying it. She'd look to Luna, raising a brow as she waited for an answer.

Looking at the massive statues, she couldn't help but wince. She knew that she and Luna were both very powerful, but she couldn't recall fighting something like these, so she didn't know how they'd fight or what they could do. The mystery of it all is what bothered her the most. That she couldn't just predict what they'd do and act accordingly with what they did.

She''d flap her wings a few times, lifting slightly into the air, her hooves gently scrapping at the ground as she looked at each of the statues, "I doubt this will be an easy fight." She'd say softly, shaking her head. Celestia hoped that they'd maybe be fragile, being stone, but for all she knew, the guardians were merely encased within stone.

As the guardians of the facility began to come to life, the stone surrounding their forms began to crack away and fall in chunks to the ground. Beneath the stone, which served to mask them as simple statues, was their true body; made of pure iron. Considering they were each over 60 feet tall, it was fair to say that they weighed... a lot. A whole hell of a lot. "Yes, that plan!" Luna shouted out, before focusing on her opponent.

Luckily due to their massive bodies and stone casing, the colossi weren't exactly the fastest opponents. Before the colossus could fully free itself, Luna was already in the air beside the thing. She was trying to figure out how to fight it. Punching the thing wouldn't stun it like it would a flesh and blood creature, and there was no life energy for her scythe to steal. That left her scimitars and spear as options.

For now she decided to go with the scimitars.

She flew up to the creatures face and quickly sent four slashes across its face, tearing up metal as she did so. It was hard to tell how effective that was, though. The thing didn't exactly show pain...

What she wasn't expecting was for her artifact weapons to cut through the thing like butter. Nice surprise!
Celestia's BattleCelestia's colossus was taking its sweet time getting free of the stone. Perfect opportunity to strike!

Celestia watched in amazement at the fact the Luna had completely ruined that Colossus is one swift motion of attacks. It staggered, letting out a strange mechanical rattle, before falling to a knee. The Knee shattered upon impact with the ground, causing it to fall forward, where is slammed against the ground, breaking apart, shining slivers and chunks of metal slid about, leaving a great deal of debris on the ground.

Celestia quickly got into her own fight however, flying up to face the massive Colossus, moving in with shocking speed. She needed to end this quickly, thought she doubted she could even be half as fast as her Sister had been with her deadly force.

Celestia closed the distance, bringing Dawnbreaker up to meet with the massive being.

Celestia watched in shock as the fire seemed to help it heal from her onslaught, meaning she'd have to make up for it with brunt force... Or Luna would like slaughter the thing quickly here after. She readied herself for the attack she knew was coming.

As Luna's colossus fell to her barrage of wicked strikes, she looked down at the rubble of mess it had caused and nodded to herself proudly. She looked over at her sister who appeared to be having trouble, and moved to help her... but paused. The dead colossus on the ground was a prime target for looting, and something about it was catching Luna's eye...

So she ignored Celestia's battle, and went over to investigate.
Celestia's BattleAs Celestia smashed chunks of iron off the thing, some larger than her own head, it let out some sort of mechanical grumble and sent its own attack at her. This fight would be difficult if her fire damage would be healing the thing the whole time...

As Celestia came flying towards the construct, it responded with a surprising amount of speed. The construct balled up one of its fists, which was several times larger and heavier than Celestia was, and punched her. She was launched straight into the ground, and by the time she stopped moving she was in a hole nearly 10 feet deep. Stunned for 2 rounds.

Taking advantage of the its lucky shot, the colossus moved towards the mare and began to swing its massive iron flail into her body. Each time the flail hit the ground, it shattered the surrounding landscape and sent shockwaves throughout the battlefield while sending Celestia deeper and deeper into the crust of the earth.

Attack 1 (Slam - Stunned for 2 rounds): 36
Attack 2 (Flail): 34
Attack 3 (Flail): Miss
Attack 4 (Flail): 34
Attack 5 (Flail): Critical Hit
Attack 6 (Flail): 43
Attack 7 (Flail): Critical Hit

Just as the final blow was about to fall (and totally kill Celestia), Princess Luna teleported in front of the attack and took the worst of the hits for her. Celestia was still battered and bruised after that beating, but at least she would live to see their kids again! Luna wound up somewhere a few hundred feet away as the hit literally launched her like a baseball.

Total Damage (To Celestia): 1,091

Total Damage (To Luna): 433

Celestia stood slowly, feeling bones snap back into place, ribs mend together, and flesh seal itself. It was an ungodly pain that she hadn't felt in so long. She'd take a look around, taking a deep breath. She'd see Luna, a good few hundred feet away, and her eyes widened. She felt an anger within herself, but had to remain calm. Now she realised she couldn't just rush about in this fight. She took to the air once again, feeling her healing magic working across her body.

Now that she was in the air again, she looked again to Luna, then at the Colossus, snarling at it as she flew at it, dipping off to the side and coming up around at its head. She hoped it was fast enough to hit her again as it had.

Celestia swung with as much might as she could, hoping to maim the damned thing before it could get in anymore hits. She couldn't help but remember that pain she'd felt mere moments ago, and did not want to relive it again, nor be so close to having died... If Luna hadn't been here... She didn't want to think about it,"Die you, cur!" She'd scream at the colossus. Maybe it would just listen and crumple over...
 
The force of Celestia's blows knocked chariot-sized chunks of iron off the colossus' body, and the damage it sustained was simply irreparable. It probably shouldn't have pissed off a deity, not that it had enough intelligence to understand what it was fighting. Its orders had simply been to guard the entrance. Regardless, Celestia quickly reduced the thing to rubble and the behemoth fell over, shaking the ground as its 10,000-ton body cracked the earth where it landed and sent shock waves throughout the area.

Princess Luna quickly made her way over, looking quite beat up but getting better by the second as her body regenerated back to its healthiest state. She took a look down at the colossus... and then slapped Celestia!

... Or at least, it was supposed to be a slap. It ended up knocking her several dozen feet away simply due to the mares anger.

Once Celestia was back over to her, Luna narrowed her eyebrows dangerously and frowned. "... That was careless, mare. You could have died."
 
Celestia stared at the crumbled form of the colossus, letting out a shuttering breath, before crushing one of the chucks on iron beneath her hooves, turning it to a fine dust. She'd let out a deep sigh, feeling the ache in her chest and legs, before turning to see Luna, smiling at she was alright... For the most part.

"Lulu... I'm so glad that you'-" She was cut off however, being punched across the face, and sent flying. She'd slam into the ground, feeling her broken jaw being tugged back into place by magic. Blinking, she slowly sat up, working her newly mended jaw, seething from the pain of it. Slowly, she stood back up, looking at Luna, bewildered. She'd trot back, just in time to be scolded.

Celestia looked away, still working her jaw a bit as she listened truthful words, and sighed quietly, "I... I know... I was not thinking about the speed at which it might be able to move. I was only trying to dispatch of it quickly." She'd say, not looking up, looking only at the stone and slivers of metal that covered the floor now. She didn't really know how to feel right now. There was fear, but it was only slight, and she forced it away, not allowing her mind to linger on what could have been.

Slowly, Celestia looked up at Luna, looking at her eyes. Luna could see it, that slight fear within her eyes, the fact she'd nearly died still lingered, being only moments ago. She'd speak softly, "There are no excuses for this." She'd say simply, before looking back at the Colossus.

"Be better next time." was all Luna had to say on the matter. Celestia had made a mistake, and had been scolded for it. There was no reason to scold her anymore. Luna still saw herself as responsible for teaching Celestia how to fight, even though the sun princess was almost as good as she was... Luna just couldn't help feeling the need to correct Celestia's every mistake. Their martial training together had wrapped up thousands of years ago, as had Luna's magical training she received from Celestia, but Luna still felt like her teacher in martial affairs.

She idly wondered if Celestia felt the same way towards her in magical affairs.

After taking a few minutes to rest and heal up, their regeneration being supplemented by Celestia's healing magic, the pair were ready to continue on. However, the door was still closed. Luna spent a few minutes looking around the door, looking for traps and finding none. It wouldn't open to them on its own volition, not with neither of them being fully Primordial, but perhaps there was another way in...?

"... Do you see any way in?" asked the Night Princess, stepping back and sighing as she found nothing.

Celestia's ChoicesCelestia had two options to try and get into the facility... either find the secret runes hidden on the door to open it, or smash the thing apart.

Strength: Four strength checks, DC 38. Two successes is smashes the door open. Natural 20 counts as 2 successes.

Intelligence: Four intelligence checks, DC 44. Two successes unlocks the door with the runs. Natural 20 counts as 2 successes.
 
Celestia nodded slowly, eyeing Luna as she had corrected her. It had honestly surprised her a bit, but she didn't comment on it. Instead, she looked to the large door, eyeing it carefully. "Give me a moment." She'd say, before beginning to look around, her horn glowing faintly as she walked around the room, seemingly trying to find something. For a few moments, she'd looked hopeful, following something.

She followed something with her magic, grinning as she began to reveal runes that were engraved into the floor. They'd been hidden by the debris, which she shifted out of her way as she went along, her magic pointing them out. Once she'd found them all, she was smiling warmly once more.

She stood at the center of the room, smiling at Luna, "Step back, don't want to cause any more problems." She'd say, jokingly of course.

Celestia stood there for a moment, before magic began to flow from her horn, four strands going to each of the ruins, the magic seeping into them, causing the runes to glow slowly, before they were all glowing bright. There was a moment of silence, then a thunderous crack, the large door shifting, splitting, and sliding open, revealing gears and large mechanical devices within it. Everything shifted and turned, the doors slowly sliding into the wall, going out of sight, leaving the rest of the ruins to explore.

Celestia looked to Luna, smiling, "I found one." She'd say, her smile warm as she moved to stand next to Luna.
 
Luna reached over to pat Celestia gently on the shoulder a few times, smiling as she did so. "That's my mare, using her head to solve problems. Something that I have not perfected in all my long years." She said with a chuckle, before moving to step through the door. The red orb of magic which had been there before seemed to have been destroyed when its energy animated the golems, though there was a good chance it would return. If it really was the 'secretary' of this facility, it probably just needed to recharge.

Who knows what else it would send against them.

But for now, it appeared that they were safe. Beyond the massive door was an even more massive room, measuring 200x200 feet and over 400 feet tall. Nothing hostile appeared to be here, though judging by the golems from before, they needed to keep an eye out for any type of 'statue'. Because it likely wouldn't be a statue at all.

As they stepped through the doorway, the thing slid shut behind them and once again locked. Hopefully they'd be able to open it again, but for now the best thing Luna could think to do was adventure further inwards.
 
Celestia followed, looking around, noticing the room had large pillars, with runes etched into them from the bottom to the very top. She'd raise a brow, trotting towards one of the pillars, looking at the runes, and now noticing the images engraved beside them. She'd look at them, before looking back to Luna, "Come, take a look at this." She'd say, continuing to look at it. She couldn't read the runes, but if they were lucky, maybe there would be books that could help them to learn.

The runes were of surprising detail, the etching smooth and seemed like it was done with a shocking amount of care. Celestia rose a brow, "What ever or who ever we find, I imagine that will not be happy." She'd say, looking to Luna.

Celestia looked back to the closed door, that had locked behind them, wondering if that had been something it was supposed to do, or if something was in control here. It made her wonder, considering the Colossus, something with a great magical power must be residing here. She'd explain this to Luna, "Should we find it, do you think we should capture it, or rid the world of it?" She'd ask, her tone low, looking around.
 
Luna came forward when called and inspected the runes closely. She did not recognize any of them, which was of no surprise to her; this facility was literally millions of years old. Herself and Celestia were old and wise, but not that old and wise. Luckily. She'd probably be a total recluse if she was that old. "... Interesting runes, though I don't think they will help us at all." Luna quickly dismissed the runes and once again wandered to the middle of the room.

"That depends what it is, Celestia." Luna said while looking around. From here, there were 3 hallways to choose from, with signs hanging above them... signs which Luna read anyway, so it's not like the signs mattered! Each hallway was massive. What the hay was this place? "If it's aggressive, just kill it. If it's a magical being, maybe we can reason with it?" She looked over at Celestia and then towards the hallways. "Which way?"
 
Celestia looked at Luna as she inspected the runes, smiling at her. When Luna stated she could not understand them, it didn't bother her, she knew that ponies would come along and discover their meanings, hopefully for the better. Clearly, powerful magic was in the runes.

She'd follow Luna, looking at the hallways, each one was massive, with different engraving in them. If only she could read them, she'd be able to maybe figure out what they would lead them towards. She'd look to each. Before looking to the path on the right. Sighing, she'd nod towards it, "This path could lead to something important, though... Any of them could." She'd say, becoming quiet for a moment, looking to the other hallways.

Sighing, she'd nod again, starting towards the right hallway, keeping an ear out, her ears flicking back and forth. She kept looking at the runes engraved into the walls and floors, worrying slightly about them. Something about the runes bothered her. It could have been the mystery of them, or was she just sensing something more? The niggling thought caused her some worry.
 
More runes. More stuff she couldn't read. Luna was half tempted to cast Comprehend Languages on herself, but there likely wasn't a point. Even if she could understand the runes, she'd have to touch them to understand them... and half the runes were like 50 feet in the air in all different directions. She could spend hours just flying around here. First clear the facility of threats, then study the facility.

As they wandered down the hallway, the sound of clanging metal soon became heard from down the hall. With a quick motion for Celestia to wait, Luna dissipated into smoke and disappeared from sight, going on to scout ahead. In her smoke form she was completely safe from harm, especially in a darkened area like this where nothing could see her anyway.

After a few minutes the mare returned, looking absolutely bewildered. "... Um... More golems... Along with forges, smithies and anvils. They're just crafting weapons and armor, and taking them away from here. I count maybe, 200 golems? But I think we could separate them with a strong enough wall spell."
 
Celestia watched as Luna went forth to scout out the noise. When she returned, Celestia rose a brow, "What did you find?" She'd ask, then get the answer, nodding slowly, "Strange, any ideas on where they could be moving the items to? If it 's weapons and armor... Seems like they are preparing for war..." She'd mutter, looking at the way forward, listening to the clanging of metal on metal. She'd sigh, looking back to Luna "Did you see any other doors out? I know the one they are taking things through, but did it lead anywhere else?" She'd ask.

Worse comes to worse... They could take out the foundation of the room, caving it in, killing all the golems, and likely ruining the massive forge, and any chance of finding out where it lead...

Celestia would grimace, shaking her head. She'd never hear the end of it in court if the researchers knew that they'd dropped the room. She'd nod slowly, "We could probably take them out quickly with your star swarm? Weaken them quickly, then cast the wall spell?" She'd ask, wondering if that'd work.
 
Luna rubbed the back of her head and nodded. Celestia was really rattling off questions right now, but the night goddess was fairly sure she could answer them all. "... I followed them and it turns out they're taking them to an armory. A really overstocked armory. It's probably the size of half our castle and filled with magical items. I believe that they are following their last set of commands to make these items, and have no idea what else to do. So they just make them endlessly. Constructs can't go to war, Celestia."

"As for doors out... none. Just this forge area and the armory, I didn't explore any further. Most of the constructs are made of iron and are our size, but there's another 5 in there that are serious. Not as big as the ones we fought outside, but still big. If we can clear out the smaller golems, then we can focus out attention on the larger ones."
 
Celestia thought on that for a moment, rubbing at her chin with a hoof, "Well... What if we... Dropped the ceiling on them? I prefer the weapons stay buried, so that no enemies can find them. We could probably magically seal the hall way, so it can't be cleared away.... But..." She'd pause, thinking about the the massive forged.

"Would it be possible to maybe take control of this place? If we could, we'd have a great supply of new armor and weapons for our soldiers, powerful weapons at that, we could easily fend off any new threats made towards Equestria, and if need be, conquer." She'd say, taking a grim turn. It was a sad fact, but a true one none the less.

Thinking on it, she couldn't help but wonder... If they took out the larger Golems first, would the rest maybe give up, without some kind of guidance? It was all rather confusing, but anything could be wroth it. Even if they had to kill everything here, the armory was stocked, and they could easily just bring the weapons back to Equestria after making sure they were safe. Celestia smiled, nodding, "So, do we go in and take them all out?" As long as they got the weapons, it wasn't pointless.
 
"No, we are not dropping the ceiling on them. Yes, we are taking control of this place. It would be completely foolish to turn down so many magical weapons and armors to equip our troops with. Mortals have a hard enough time crafting magical items, we should get this for them. Then we can go out and conquer all the lands!" She said happily, smiling brightly at the prospect of finally expanding their borders.

"I do not, however, believe that taking out the larger golems would render the smaller ones powerless. I think we need to destroy them all, and then we can get some archmages in here to tinker with the constructs and recreate them to our own purpose. The materials are all here... we just need to rework them. An endless supply of whatever we need!"
 
Celestia would nod at this, looking towards the room. She could still hear the clanging, which was good, they hadn't heard them ,"Then I suggest we go in quickly, hit them with our area attacks, then take out the ones still functioning, so that we can deal with the remaining larger golems." She'd say, thinking the tactic could be very effective... If none of the golems were shockingly fast of course.

Celestia would smile, nodding to Luna, "Having a better Military would also help to avoid conflict. Enemies would be less likely to attack if they knew for a fact we had better equipment." She'd point, out. It would certainly be useful.

Finally, she'd nod, looking to the doorway leading into the forge. She'd slowly make her way there, not to attack yet, just to get a look at what was there. Luna had told her, but she still wanted a visual of what the battle might turn into. The Colossi had bothered her enough to warrant some caution.

As the two crept closer, Celestia would feel the heat from the forges begin to creep into her senses. It didn't hurt her at all, though it obviously made Luna uncomfortable. Luna kept an eye out for any of the golems that may notice them. The chances were incredibly slim though. Their jobs were not to watch for intruders, but to make weapons and armor... and golems weren't well known for being multi-taskers. Once they were close enough to the golems, Celestia could finally see the massive forge;
forge_map_lg.jpg
"Wait here. Get ready to back me up." Luna said, before disappearing again. She reformed in the air a moment later above the forge, which caused all the golems down below to finally take notice of her. They looked up and a few even began reaching for items to throw at her, but it was too late for them; with a blinding flash a portal opened up at the top of the ceiling, and from it came a rain of stars. The stars acted like massive shurikens, seeking out every enemy in the forge and tearing them to shreds. By the time the dust had settled, only 15 of the creatures remained; 10 adamantine golems and 5 massive stone colossi.
Stone Colossus.pngAdamantine Golem.jpg
Luna teleported right back beside Celestia, just in time to see the golems charging towards them. With arms outstretched, spikes the size of Celestia's foreleg made of pure adamantine shot out towards them. These were enchanted... heavily. Luna could feel it before they even hit them.

Just before the darts impacted her, one of Luna's scimitars quickly turned into an ornate shield and she hid behind hit, blocking the majority of the spikes. A few still hit her in the legs, and one in particular skipped off the floor and bounced right up into her gut, though right at the same moment she stepped aside so it didn't get lodged in her.

Unfortunately after having just used Star Swarm, she really didn't have the energy to counter attack. It would take a few seconds for her to fully recover. Her body was already repairing the damage from the darts, even as the golems closed into melee distance.

Celestia moved with surprising speed. Even after being tagged by all the darts, she'd managed to remove them all with a shocking grace and speed. Noticing the Golems, she'd look to the Colossi, which, for the moment, only seemed to be watching. Likely sizing them up. Celestia knew this was likely to be a hell of a fight, even if they could remove the damn Golems from the field.

Celestia rushed forward, taking flight, before suddenly teleporting around the Colossi, attacking at least four of the damned things. She had to best quick and decisive otherwise she might be hit harder than she cared to be.

Celestia was fast, and even managed a few good hits on them. However, now they were all focusing on her, and one, that she hadn't hit, made it's way towards Luna. The others began to target Celestia.

As the colossus came towards Luna, she tried desperately to think of a way to use it against her enemies. As it was about to strike she deftly dodged away, rolling to the side and hoping that it had perhaps crushed one of the adamantine golems coming after her. It hadn't, which was sorely disappointing, but she didn't exactly have time to mourn that fact right now. There was a colossus and 6 other golems all coming after her.

Luna was quickly overrun by the golems, who swarmed her like locust and tried to beat her down with massive punches. Luna deftly dodged out of the way of each punch, although one skimmed across her shoulder and bruised the muscle there.

At the same time, four of the adamantine golems charged Celestia and attempted to beat her down as well. She proved an easier target, as two of the golems managed to not only slam their fists into her, but also grapple her. Almost as if synchronized in their deadly attacks, the golems both squeezed Celestia tightly. The golem grabbing her hind legs did almost nothing... but the one wrapping its arms around her torso was a powerful creation. Her bones started to crack.

    Total Damage: 48

Rather than take flight or dodge away, Luna threw down her scimitars and finally let out the anger she'd been holding deep inside; anger from seeing Celestia almost killed. She dove right into the fray. She didn't overly care if there was 7 golems all trying to crush her; she knew that in a matter of moments she could reduce most of them to rubble. These golems were not dangerous, the big colossi were. But they were a distraction, and she lost it even more when she saw her wife getting grappled.

Luna disappeared in a trail of smoke and reappeared next to the first golem, slamming her hooves into the thing two times in the blink of an eye before disappearing again. This time she targeted the stone golems nearest Celestia, knocking chunks off of them with her hooves and sending them scattering across the floor. Then she disappeared again.

When she got back to her original position 6 seconds later, all of the adamantine golems had been reduced to rubble and a good chunk of the stone colossi had been severely damaged.

  • All attacks hit.
