Escaping
HELLO EVERYONE!!
"RAAWRR!!"
"AAAAAAHHHHH!!!"
I'm currently fleeing from a giant winged Tyrannosaurus that spits fire between the city buildings.
You don't understand how I got here?
Don't worry, I don't understand either!!
"How did this happen?!"
"RAAWRR!!"
Well, there's only one thing I can do in this situation... Remember!! (Escapism)

<"So this is the Veil.">
After entering the Veil, this was the first thing Echidna said as we saw an exact, more post-apocalyptic and fantastical copy of the city with rocks levitating in the air, Pterosaurs flying through the sky, and two guys throwing energy beams at each other flamboyantly 60 meters above the ground while knocking down skyscrapers.
"It's just as I imagined it would be."
<"I honestly wouldn't be surprised if this is what's really in your mind.">
"That's offensive!! My mind is calmer (maybe?) than this!!"
Seriously, does Echidna think I'm crazy?! I'm perfectly sane!!
But well, let's get back to what matters, and that's testing the capabilities of this 'silver knight' form while I'm fused with the armor.
Wait a second... While I'm fused?
"How do I go back to normal?!"
<"Now you realize?">
I hadn't thought about it in my joy at receiving a power-up, but...
I don't want to live my life trapped in this form!!
"What do we do, Echidna?!"
<"First, calm down. I already have an idea of what's happening, so to check if my theory is correct, we need to see what that form is capable of.">
"Inhale... Exhale... OKAY..."
And so, trusting Echidna, we tested what I could do. Doing exercises that I would normally be incapable of performing due to my pathetic physical ability, we confirmed that I had superhuman strength, speed, and endurance.
"Sniff... This is a real power-up... Sniff..."
I won't lie, I was so moved that I cried for a while.
<"This confirms my theory; it seems you two fused.">
"Fused...?"
<"This must be possible thanks to the fragmented state of your soul, which allowed you to temporarily bond with the small silver armor since it had remnants of my power in it.">
Echidna started muttering a lot of technical things about how this had happened, but there was something she said that I clearly couldn't ignore...
"What do you mean I have a fragmented soul?!"
<"Didn't I tell you?">
"Damn it!! You didn't!!"
(Slash!!)
That's when I made the mistake. Due to my own unconscious anger and frustration, I unknowingly invoked the armor's sword, launching a 'flying slash' that hit a Tyrannosaurus of all the damn things in that place...
What do you think?
