Thor quickly whirls around and brings up Mjolnir to block both of Morpho Knight's blades.
"Allow me to correct you there: people have died and remained dead in this realm."
He then attempts to smack Morpho Knight into one of the gorge's walls.
"And exactly who tasked you with ending my life?"

"Hm, we've been here for a similar amount of time." she declares.
"Interesting, you must be quite... used to all the oddities, be it in this realm or in your world. Speaking of that one, does it rely on technology, powers or.. magic ?"
She sounds stand-offish yet polite, though she makes a notable grimace when mentioning magic
Nautolan picture belongs to Bonesmarinated on twitterMorpho Knight blocks the counter-attack and lands feet-first in front of Thor. "I would have the courtesy not to hand out my employer's name to enemies." He attempts a right-handed uppercut slash on Thor. Instead of going for a follow-up combo, he teleports to Quoth and tries a left-handed uppercut slash on her.
Quoth dives out of the way of the slash, stopping next to Black Steel and Mitch. She turns around as she stands up, barraging Morpho Knight with plasma bolts. "C'mon, you two! Dust this asshole!"

"Actually, a lot of things still surprise me. I've just learned to take it in stride. Our civilization uses technology - magic's just not a thing there, although we've certainly encountered magic users from further away within our galaxy. One of my friends combine them, actually. Still experimental." Mitch explains. "Some of our stuff can seem like magic to others, though."
Very quietly, a small crevice opens behind Mitch, and from it comes out pieces of his armor.
"That's interesting. I've always trusted technology more than anything else. Magic is older than any of us and is wild and untamed, you can't trust it. A machine, however, is made by you. If you're good, it will not explode in your face."
She looks at the girl.
"I don't want to help a god... but If he attack you again, I'll help."
Nautolan picture belongs to Bonesmarinated on twitterMorpho Knight gets blown down by the lightning. He hops to his feet, cuts off Quoth's attack by shooting a horizontal sword beam through the plasma at her, then goes for an X slash on Thor.
"Crap!" Quoth flattens herself to the ground, letting the beam pass overhead. She reattaches her rifles to her thighs and takes what looks like a portable cannon off her back, holding it up to her face like a sniper rifle. A cone of faint green light envelops the whole area, and starts to slowly narrow down with a whirring noise. "Come on, baby, just hold still at the right moment, and it's all over..." she whispers to nothing in particular.
"A wizard is never late, nor is he early. He arrives precisely when he means to.""This gun is my strongest weapon, and it's done some damage to even gods. If it hits the butterfly bastard and doesn't so much as scratch him, I give up. But if it does what it's supposed to do, he'll be reduced to a smear on the bottom of the gorge."
Morpho Knight and Thor's weapons clang in a flash of light. Morpho Knight jumps backwards once, twice, thrice, then holds his swords over his head and starts charging up a fire blast.
Quoth's cone of light gets brighter as it gets narrower and narrower, focusing on Morpho Knight.
"A wizard is never late, nor is he early. He arrives precisely when he means to.""Well, I had a lot of backup, but yeah. The God of Nihilism, who was actually closer to an Eldritch Abomination than a god. I didn't finish him off, but I'll be damned if I didn't soften him up a good deal." Quoth's cone is now almost a thin, perfectly cylindrical line.
Morpho Knight points his swords directly at Thor, continuing to charge up his fire attack.
"A wizard is never late, nor is he early. He arrives precisely when he means to.""If a god has nothing against you or anything related to you, why bother opposing him? Now be quiet for a second; I'm about to take the shot."
Morpho Knight unleashes his fire blast at Thor's lightning blast.
Before they can play out a repeat of what just happened with Morpho Knight and Lord Ninth, Quoth's green light disappears, replaced by a single bolt of plasma. It hits Morpho Knight the moment after his attack, and he goes flying, slamming into the wall on the opposite side of the gorge. He peels off the wall, then teleports mid-fall, reappearing right behind Quoth. He thrusts his swords at the bird's back.

"A wizard is never late, nor is he early. He arrives precisely when he means to."After taking a moment to get over the initial surprise at how the Beam-O-War was swiftly ended before it could even begin, Thor runs over to the others and attempts to smash Morpho Knight into the ground with a two-handed downward strike from Mjolnir.
Quoth actually rolls her eyes. A hand wearing a black winter glove reaches up from the ground beneath her, grabs her ankle, and yanks her back through a portal identical to the one that brought her to the Arena, which slams shut.
Morpho Knight ends up tumbling over Black Steel without harming her and gets spiked into the ground by Mjolnir. He promptly teleports away in retreat.

She offers him hot chocolate.
"Of course." she says, before putting the bottle on her lap.
"How long have you been there ? Are you a veteran ? You seems unfazed by the fighting."
