Who Keeps Spinning the World Around?

The morning of June 17th, you'll probably notice things are amiss rather quickly. Your hands aren't your hands, or you're no longer in a squishy human flesh shape, or worse. Maybe your Lawful Good persona has plummeted into an outright Chaotic Evil one. Or maybe you wake up with a brand new power in your hands! Whatever the case is, no explanation is going to be immediately forthcoming, from Eleu or the Storyteller or anyone else. You'll have to figure out this mess on your own. Adjust to your new circumstances, master your new powers, and do what you can to make it through the next few days...because they're going to be some very interesting ones, for certain.

Catch Me If You Can!

Come June 20th, whether you're back to normal selves or not, Eleu has a job for you. A request, even. They're going to need your help to take care of this little problem and put a stop to all this absolute madness.

Those interested in helping can get in touch with any of the honeybees buzzing anxiously about Io, and they will redirect you to the Honeycomb, which has now been provided with several barrels of Honeycomb Sledgehammers for your use. You don't have to take one if you don't need it, but they make a very powerful weapon. Additionally, Eleu will take care to assure that, in exchange for your help, you may keep the Sledgehammer, if you so choose. Those interested in assisting may access our boss fight at its top-level below. This is a single thread with no order, but anyone may participate, regardless of their current state of being. Don't worry about how you contribute, or tag speed. Anyone who's concerned about being left out is welcome to reach out to us to handwave or backtag their involvement, if necessary!

The Clown Box is going to put up a fight, though. And it's not going to be pretty.

[And in comes a new challenger, armored and ready to fuck this stupid box right on up. It takes him a moment to reorient to the visuals, but he's soon in the fray as well, swinging that Honeycomb Hammer at any pieces solid enough to actually take a hit.]

[shatteredlenses]

[It is a natural reaction for any animal doused in water--no matter how colorful--to shake it off. It's doubly so when their vision changes so radically as a result. Fortunately, Ignis isn't too close to anyone when he does it, though he stops himself as soon as he realizes what he's doing. He growls softly around the handle of the Honeycomb Sledgehammer in his mouth and then joins the others in their attack, sliding into the nearest opening that allows him enough room to take a good swing with the hammer.]

[ Even though it dodges and diverts, under the water and over it, blow after blow forces it into a corner. Through the islanders' combined efforts - hammer and sword and impact after impact - the box comes together a final time.

After being struck, it freezes in place for a second before shattering. What's left behind is a swirl of colour and bright energy, a swarm of light and shapes that comes together in a shifting pulse.

Then it spreads, sweeping across the island in a wave, washing over the assembled fighters and lifting whatever strangeness has been inflicted on them - changes in vision and shape, wrought by the clown box's reign of chaos. ]

[thankgods]

[ The swarm of bees that serves as the god's avatar buzzes frantically from all corners of the island, chasing the flood of coloured light. Those who are close enough to hear them might notice that they're speaking - calling out a name. ]

"Zun!"

[ The bees and the light collide into each other at the center of the island, in the sky above the god's temple; swirling around each other and wrapping each other up in a bright, chaotic torrent.

When it ends, the bees are still there, but they look....different. Far more colourful, for one thing. And they're buzzing in barely contained laughter, brimming with an unrestrained joy. ]

[Somewhere on the shore Muffet, now mercifully back to her proper arachnid form, looks up at the giant cloud of buzzing chaos and sighs heavily.]

I left for five minutes.

[She's going to have a long month to catch up on.]
