OOC: You attacked my planet first. So anyway, you've got the plan of attacking an underprivileged society, for the single purpose of keeping me busy? You're keeping this society that doesn't know the rest of the world exists busy? That's kind of lame. Unless you were planting the tree as you're purpose. Speaking of which, it has become an impossibility because we didn't understand each others' technology. I didn't know what the tree was, so I didn't know it's most basic form was a sapling. You didn't know I was pushing it back in time, so you couldn't catch me on doing something I couldn't do, and did the growing backwards thing.

OOC: No, he did what he came to do. Left three powerful attacks to keep you or anyone really that would have been there and might have realized what he was doing. reread it and you might figure it out. If K2 asks privately I'll tell him.

Anyway, K2, how does the sapling being pushed back in time grow it backwards?

Result of Three Day Rule

The noble tree had out grown the very atmosphere of the moon. Actually its canopy of leaves grew rapidly enough to slam into the K Empire fleet, the tree trying to grow into the ships themselves. As for the Moon itself, it was now absolutely covered in in trees like the one that just rammed the fleet. Their roots reaching deep into the moon reaching near its core, as branches snaked and grew on both sides of the shadow. From a mere sampling had come something of true uneasiness... it was as if creation itself was out of control. This moon was lost, the roots tearing it to pieces. However, the roots became a new moon, as the trees continues growing, reaching across the void of space to grow into the 11 other moons here... and the gas giant itself. Ripping through the Shadow as if without direction.

I've replied. What you're doing is illegal, but i don't care. I just want the griefing to stop.

Cadinae saw the outer moon torn apart by the plants, and he realized that there was only one thing he could do to save the people from the plants. What kind of emotionless monster could justify destroying an entire culture so callously? he thought as he began to glow with silver light, and suddenly he saw it growing in reverse. The plant receded back upon itself as well as the K ships that drifted backward in the slightest direction. The Shadow began to grow back at a lightning rate, but then began shrinking. Oddly enough, it would then burst into flame and grow back nearly the rest of the way. Cadinae then looked over, and saw the plant shrinking into his own hand, and at the very moment it became a seed, he grabbed his hand and closed it tight. Success. He had time traveled back a meager few minutes, and as time unfroze, he knew that the thing in his hand was a weapon of terror, and should be treated accordingly. Backing it through time was already proven to simply do a similar thing to pushing it forward. The answer seemed obvious now: to stop it. With a simple spell Cadinae froze the object in time as a seed put past it's most basic form, ready to strike at any moment. Unfortunately for it, it would get no such moment. With one last push, Cadinae wrenched and sweat to push it to a place where it would never take an innocent life again: the realm of the lost. As the small portal he opened closed , taking the seed with it, Cadinae's eyes drooped and his body relaxed. On the verge of feinting, Cadinae had exhausted himself almost entirely.

OOC: Really... we've been over this it was never a seed nor can it ever be. Its most basic form is a sapling. Also,
you had your chance to post. OOC posts do not count, K2 told you my post was valid and you still did IC post. Not my problem.

After exerting himself so much... it sad to see someone fail to save everyone but themselves. It wasn't a normal tree that was for sure, and why would this tree have a seed? Its was never a seed, thus, the sapling Cadinae sent to The Realm of The Lost was only a small part. So focused on turning it into a seed. He did not figure out it had no seed form. The roots in attempting to revert it grew into Cadinea's arm what he thought he sent away was now growing into and out of him. His arm would be weighed down by the mass of the new sampling, that quickly grew into the noble tree.

All this effort to rid the planet of a mere tree, only to have it grow inside yourself. The tree could not even be made aware of that horror, after all its a tree. The cruelest part of this, is that in the same spot where the first sapling grew was another. It was both beautiful and most likely terrifying, it was also growing.

Ragnar the Red · « **Reply #61 on:** January 19, 2012, 11:05:36 PM »

OOC: We haven't been over this. I tried to clear this up in an earlier post by saying not a seed, and asked for you to second it. You never mentioned it again until now. And nonetheless you continued it to grow backwards, and the whole reason it did that was that it became a seed. Therefore, it thanks to you, it was a seed.
Also, since when do OOC posts not count? It doesn't say that in the rules. If it is a real rule, it should at least say that in the rules (Looks at administration. Looks back at the post).
Also, I wanted an explanation for why it was valid, and no one could give it.
Also, you cannot describe the killing blow and the death in a single post. You jumped from a meager mile in diameter to the destruction of the moon in a single post. Even if that is allowed, it goes against the very purpose of the three day rule.
And lastly, we're in space. An arm cannot be weighed down.

Cadinae resisted the growth through his body. As pain screamed slowly but surely down his arm, he cursed the sociopathic being that did this under his breath, still not knowing who it was. As a root reached the end of his forearm and trickled into his elbow, he wondered, Is this the end?

Capxeno · « **Reply #62 on:** January 20, 2012, 12:18:03 AM »

OOC: Every time you tried say seed even in my post I said it could not be and that its most basic form is a sapling, it does grow backwards if you revert it past that point, the its a sapling with roots up, trunk down. also, the counter 2/6 went to 6/6 that action the post was to complete. If you don't like that, you had every chance to respond IC. OOC posts shouldn't even be in here, and I'd preferred it if you had made an OOC thread in the IC disputes. You were told my post was valid, problem? post IC. Also, not describing the killing blow but what would be trying to grow into you, and noted, cannot be weighed down.

The tree would continue to grow into Cadinae, the roots trying to funnel through out his very circulatory systems, and take root within him. It was nothing but a mindless plant, why would it be a sociopath? If it continued to grow within him... he would most likely be ripped to ribbons. Time was not his ally today, was it?

The sapling on the moon grew into a noble tree, and then into a forest. This progression of rapid growth had become a familiar site here. Would the moon face destruction a second time? The mile sized forest that appeared again, in mere moments would ravage the existing land, creation taking over the surface. The K Empire Fleet still very much in danger of being hit by the result of this moons destruction.

A humanoid mass of water with a single wing appeared in-front of Cadinae, its shadowy mass of water seem to have an odd smile on its face. As if the owner of that smile had the whole of existence in his hand, it was one of both pride and hubris. the winged humanoid mass of water spoke in an odd tone, that could be heard even in the void of space, to only Cadinae.

"Child, how much does this planet's survival mean to you? You could still save it... if not by power, by compromise."

OOC: I really have no idea what's going on anymore, but Cap was valid in calling the three day rule.

As the entire ship was torn to shreds, Fiske Tyris and a handful of other men just barely managed to warp away in time. Their ship was not as lucky. It could be said that a great loss had occurred here today. Some force of magic had been trying to infiltrate. Everything. And whatever weapon it had used, it was strong. Too strong. Too strong for one ship.

Hopefully, Helios would survive. But for now, they were on their own. Would backup come to help them? One could only hope.

OOC: Gotta regroup, may be back in a bit to help you Nik.

Ragnar the Red · « **Reply #64 on:** January 20, 2012, 06:07:52 PM »

OOC: There is no tree on the moon. I went back in time, to the post where I made it a seed past it's most basic form. The only sapling is in Cadinae's hand (literally). It has yet to grow, and Cadinae is slowing it down.
Because of this, K2's ship is fine, as the tree is nowhere near him.
And for the record, he was referring to the one who placed the plant, not the plant itself. Disregard for human/sentient life is sociopathic.

Cadinae struggled against the roots growing through him. He was powerful enough to stop it from growing at a speed worth noting, but not fast enough to stop it completely. He was on the verge of screaming in pain as a piece trickled past his elbow into his upper arm, when the face of water appeared.

"Compromise?" Cadinae said trembling with anger, fear, and pain.

Capxeno · « **Reply #65 on:** January 20, 2012, 06:44:25 PM »

OOC: Not my problem you do not understand what you are fighting, there never was a seed, its most basic form is a sapling, of either roots up or roots down. Also, its not merely just a tree. Of your own attempts you have split what was into two places, one where its on its original spot, and one where its growing into you. You have two trees to deal with now. If your character was not focused on turning it into something it cannot be... maybe you would of stood a chance. Oh, and knew exactly what you meant, anything wrong with sociopath characters?

The forest on the moon quickly grew into one that covered the whole surface of the moon. The first tree was now the size of a skyscraper, reaching further into the sky. The roots dug deep into the moon's crust and was begins to knock against the beginning of the core. Any life on the moon would be severely displaced and either injured or dead. It would be as if a tidal wave of forest had hit their habitat.

A small amount of creation was activated on the K Empire Ships, a sapling would be on all three. Beginning to grow into the hull.

The watery entity gazed upon Cadinae as the sapling growing into him writhed rapidly, his efforts to slow it making its movement wild and its urging deeper into his body brutal. It was like trying to pin down a crocodile. The entity began to speak, "Surrender"

"Surrender yourself and this planet to my master and me. It will require you to agree to a magic contract now. One that if you break or my master activates it, you will die. Your very essence burned away by your own powers. You will have you time powers sealed away for the rest of normal functioning time, and you abilities will be limited to what my master allows. This contact will be the signature one our new... treaty. All other loyalties you will rescind now. Your only master will be My master and me." The voice was monotone and without humor or room for debate.

"Additionally, this planet and its inhabitants will become the servants to my master. They will turn over 30% of their labors and its fruits to him. 15% of these people will be turned over to my master for... experimentation." again the coolness in his voice was a bit creepy.

"All you have to do is say I accept and the magic will overtake you. My master will stop the tree, and all will be fine with this world."

He was pushing himself back in time. I didn't touch it while it was anywhere near the moon. Therefore, if it did split in half, the two sapling must be next to one another.

Ragnar the Red · « **Reply #68 on:** January 20, 2012, 08:24:39 PM »

OOC: Past and future self. They were both at the spot of the original though, so the sapling still cannot be on the moon. There can be two, but they are both in the same area.

Capxeno · « **Reply #69 on:** January 20, 2012, 11:14:56 PM »

OOC: Again, time is not a solution. You have five points of activated creation, you, the point on the moon, and the three K Empire fleets. So regardless those fives things will have a form of a sapling. Go You. Now mind posting IC?.

Ragnar the Red · « **Reply #70 on:** January 21, 2012, 12:58:06 PM »

OOC: Time is a solution
O= moon
X= plants
Diagram of Growing Plant

O X <- b 1:00
O XXXXX 1:15
OXXXXXXXX <- a 1:30

I move through time from point a to point b. I did not move the plant from point a to point b. Because of this, there is no way that it could have left behind anything because it was never in fact at the moon.
And I'll post IC in 2 days or when I think of a solution

OOC: Again in that case you caused a second point of activated creation, not even close to solving the activated point of creation on the moon. Now you have five points of activated creation to deal with, the moon, the K empire ships, and oh guess what yourself.

OOC: You didn't solve the first one, the creation on the moon is still activated, time doesn't help you undo that. By trying to grasp the Tree now your character is also a point of activated creation thus the tree growing into the charter. You time shennagans is spreading it.

You're using K2's verdict on one move as a cure all to an entire feild of magic. What I did before was the opposite of super aging, but now I made it so it never happened.
