My friends, it was that day that I heard our glorious Autarch, she called AL-YISUN by the thousand temples of Atru, called The Beloved in the devils’s tongue, and amongst angels spoken of respectfully as Kill Six Billion Demons, the Risen King, speak her greatest wisdom. And lo, she said:
“Bros we are OUTTIE. This is NOT a conversation we need to be part of.”
Okay, so the situation has gone TITS UP, and it is time to perform a tactical withdrawal, which is the nice way of saying “run away.”
They’re going to have to get tactical from now on. There is no way in any world that they can take these superpowered freaks in a straight-up fight, so they’ll need to get creative.
Ah, good to see that localized temporal distortion ironed itself out! Actually quite a common occurrence when spacetime-warping beings clash in such a violent manner. Would have been unfortunate for our friend Zaid to have been lost to the quantum void, who knows where or when he might’ve ended up! Last time it happened to me I ended up skipping half of the Silurian.
There is too much might here. One demiurge versus the breaker of the wheel would lose, badly, but it would at least be a fight. All of them and its not even that. The breaker scarcely needs to do more than stand there and let the host perform the age-old ritual of ‘a circular firing squad’.
There is too much strength. Run, if you can, until you can face him with known and wielded weakness. Run… if you can.
This is no beast. He knows you will likely run and will have planned for such just as he planned for you to face him. And the vultures are already circling, by his whim and beyond it. Running is a battle of its own kind.
A retreat is about salvaging your forces. Here, there is nothing to salvage that would mean a damn thing against what is to come. Retreating is irrelevant. But what they might do is to hunt for a means to matter in this.
A disarmed knight dives away from an armed enemy. But he lunges for the shadow of a discarded blade on the battlefield.
Well, that’s a big part of bravery, isn’t it? To turn away from personal glory to protect others, and not to mind when people mock you for it.
Too many combatants in that mixed melee already. Bounce. Ride the Lightning. Get Strong. Re-engage on your own terms.
Then you come at them sideways.

So it is written and so it shall be, that all may live by Al-Yisun’s decree:
“Stay in your own lane.”
Or slay in your own lane, as the case may be.
I just appreciate Vigilant Gaze and Princess positioning themselves to stand guard against the actual apocalypse that’s happening right over yonder.
“He that fights and runs away, May turn and fight another day; But he that is in battle slain, Will never rise to fight again.”
– Tacitus
Reg Shoe might have something to say about that.
“Brave, Brave, Sir Robin~”
Excellent reference!
May hazard Pree cu’s post above also worth a gander.
Oh, it looks like half of Nyave’s face has gone slack. I hope she’s not paralyzed.
Downed medic: It’s okay. I is fine.
Party: You aren’t medically fit to decide who’s fine.
bit of a weird tangent in the last panel with allison’s key lighting up and the panel border above. took me a second to read it properly.
Time for the Secret Joestar Family Techniques!
Also, the Saotome Secret Technique….
7th panel. All all typo
“Marines, we are LEAVING!”
Hrmm… first thing that came to my mind as well 😉

Why is the added Zaid so funny to me?
honestly the fact that he’d been forgotten is what’s so funny to me.
His inclusion now is just a reminder.

Hah. The right call. Oh, is it ever.

I like how whenever Cio panics she just screams at Allison.
I think she has daddy issues.
Finally a coolheaded and intelligent decision from Allison. She DOES tend to get stuck in her own momentum not thinking about consequences.
It not running it’s a strategical retreat.
Hah. No: It is advancing to the rear.

They have at least four good assets. Possibly five. That’s plenty to salvage.
tfw no healer
tfw when the healer needs a healer
Good call! Save Nyave!
Zaid is here and he’s been here the whole time, don’t ask questions
Am I the only one that gives a single damn about Zaid, lol.
I care about him more everytime I see people complaining about him existing. Much like all the Solomon trash talking.
Lol I love the retroactive silent Zaid. Just syaing nothing as he gazes vigilantly with Vigilant Gaze.
