Yeah I am so out of my league here. Patrick, you take over. What, you fuckass, what do you want me to do? Just comfort her you idiot. Here goes... His body seemed to relax slightly as Patrick took back over. He quietly sits next to Niki, patting the older girl on the back. "We're here to save Raine, remember? And, at least you have me and Rein. My helmet picked up vital signs from her at least, so she must be alive. I can't begin to imagine the pain you are going through, but we have to keep fighting. If not for Raine's sake then for our own survival. W-We don't want Micha's death to be meaningless. All we can really do to survive is keep going deeper into this he-Dreamscape. Trying to face Omega is pointless, we aren't strong enough to fight him. Maybe... if we had the numbers that we did in SBARG, we could take him down, but there's nowhere near enough of us. What I'm trying to say, I guess, is that we have to keep moving forward to get out of this mess."

All but one or two of the Kats start to panic. Noelle, despite still wearing a winter coat now looks terribly pale and soaked.
"I don't even think Zwei expected this..." she says. Shade replies, "What the fuck even happened!? This isn't what we fucking planned for..."
Antheia is still standing in place. Horror is clear on her face. She starts to mumble to herself.
"That girl is Inkstained...And the illusion we've put over the Dream is gone...If we don't act fast, this bubble will be destroyed...But...what can we do...?"
The vines spread over the ground in the speed of molasses, infecting the area with more black roses. Rien has gone quiet.

Most of the seths in the crowd seems to be moderately uneasy, but for the most part aren't effected too much. It's just another set of obstacles they need to conquer, not much of a big deal.
Schrodinger, having watched much of the events from afar and had known Micha before, seems concerned, and still a bit pissed off. He remembers when he used to call her while he was trapped in Koholint. How she was working through her own problems, with the Null and all. To believe it was all a set-up to summon shithead mclabcoat. Micheal is his name, right? He did look a lot like Mike, the witch of time/null from the session. Is this really, what he turned into? And he always thought he himself was the terrible asshole of the session. Schrodinger swears he will kill Omega one day for cutting Micha's life short.
Meanwhile, Thoren is letting the medics patch up his form. He's not sure if it will make the stinging stop, but maybe they know what they're doing. He at least wants them to put his shirt back on so he can be a little less exposed.

"Ah, Remose. Good to see you here. Would you mind assisting the doctors patch up this teen?"

"Yes, I would be delighted to practice medicine."
He heads over to the patient and introduces himself.
"Hello. I will be helping to patch you up."

A cracking sound. Followed by another. Soon enough, the cage of vines bursts open and out comes Rien, holding the Clockwork Mace...No longer a silvery-purple haired girl.
It's clear to see that this girl was a Lord of rage, but there are no signs of any wounds. Looking to the sky, her expression a mix of despair and anger, her bright red eyes seemingly glow.
Black stains are everywhere on her clothes, and smudges of black on her face. Her mace glows an ominous red as well. She finally speaks. "...Where is he."
Antheia stands there looking at her in horror.

The patient is already fucking dead, as noted by his blank eyes, somehow even more paler than usual skin, (if that's even possible with his skin tone) and the obvious hole where his heart should have been.
You might recognize him from a while back.
"....wait... I remember you. From the meteor..."
It's Thoren.

Some of the Kats seem to be taking the new appearance sort of well. Sure they're dead...and they feel like how they died, though they don't really know the context yet, is kind of bullshit... But at least they're not alone in that fact.
A few of them still seem to not take it as well, though, and are sitting down in a sort of sense of futility.
...The barrier over the garden is gone, but so are the specters. But there is a figure still up in the sky. It's clear to see that she was a Witch of Life. She slowly descends, with a shocked look on her face.
"....What...What the hell...?"
Noelle seems to be in a small panic, though. She's shaking Shade. "Shade...? Shade!!? Dude, this isn't funny. Wake the hell up."
The plush doll says nothing.
Patrick's figments only seem to be running on pure hope at this point.

"Niki, lets.. let's just grab Rein and get out of here. For all we know, she might actually be Raine! I mean, we are looking for a living girl in the world of the dead, and there's Rein. I've got a plan for how we can get out of the Ring.. we could finally sleep on a bed in a world that doesn't have Horrorterrors threatening to destroy our minds at any moment. Of course, we'll take Remose too, and we can pick up Smoke and Kek on the way." The Heir of Hope was almost pleading to the Mage of Light, looks like the Kats are getting to him too.

"...He's right. I'm sure she really is Raine...." Thoren's voice from the other side of the tent. "When I held her though... something didn't seem right with her..." Thoren pauses. There seems to be a strain in his voice. "...we have to find Zwei."

"Why don't we just get one of the Kats to tell us where the Abyss is and just go fuck her up? We have vastly superior numbers."

"The Abyss..." Antheia closes her eyes. "There's a shortcut through the Akashic Records. A door that leads to the Council and Zwei's rooms...And the entrance to the Abyss."
Ophelia interrupts. "You're not planning to take her on now, are you!? Look at Raine!! She has the only key to weakening Zwei and she's in absolutely awful state! The Clockwork Mace is tainted with negative energy..."
Antheia shakes her head. "There is a positive result to this tragedy. The strange aura has dissipated all the magic in the area, and there is a possibility that Zwei is affected by it as well. This is enough of a weakness to take her down."
"And if the Abyss still has enough magic...?"
"We won't know until we find out."

"With the rate at which things are deteriorating, I don't think we have time to wait for Rein to recover. I'm willing to bet the man upstairs must be doing some serious shit for this to be happening."

Remose stops pondering if he truly has met this pale boy somewhere before.
"I apologize in that, I cannot remember you. You are right though, I was actually just at the meteor not but a little bit ago."

Ophelia scowls, the tentacles on her back are acting up. There's only one anti-magic toxin strong enough to destroy a large and elaborate enough area. She's experienced it before.
"The null. It destroys magic and disables aspect powers...I only know one person who weilded something like that...But I never thought he'd do something like this..."
Ophelia thinks back. Mike...he wasn't that bad of a dude, was he? She never really interacted with him that much. But to think, for things to go this way after she died...
But it doesn't matter right now. Zwei needs to be taught a lesson.
Antheia looks back at Raine. Raine seems to be gripping her mace real tightly. An angry expression clear on her face. As if anything looks at her wrong would expect a mace to the face.
"...We can't bring her with us. I can feel something about her...It's as if she's connected to Zwei somehow...And her Inkstained status is going to get worse with time..."
