Temporal pixies

[Nephrite]

That's actually a really great question. I have no idea how 'far' a Divine Blast can go. The range on it is a mile, but assuming I just shoot it straight down... does that mean it goes down a mile and does the damage? What if I make it shaped like a mile-long drill or something?

[Anastasia]

I'd assume it goes the full distance, as to quote:

The ray created can extend up to one mile per rank (the deity chooses the length)

Plus:

The ray destroys a wall of force, prismatic wall, or prismatic sphere it hits (all layers in a prismatic effect are destroyed). The ray itself is unaffected and can strike a target behind the wall of force or prismatic effect.

It's described as a ray and this describes it extending out past one target and to another, so it  doesn't just manifest and zap something without crossing the intervening distance. So it would go as far as you want it to go, within your limit determined by divine rank.

[Nephrite]

Okay. I wasn't sure, since Mass Divine Blast exists, and technically speaking the way that's written I could hit multiple creatures with one Divine Blast. Or maybe I've always been able to do that and I'm just stupid.

"At least a mile." Moore answers.

[Anastasia]

"Try," Sylvie insists gently, "It's a start and better than any other choices we have."

"Don't worry, I can heal anything if you hit something shooting blind," Jetina speaks up.

[Nephrite]

Well, they have to go ahead and down, so Moore aims that way, and...

Let's fire it for one mile ahead and down. Assuming he can alter the size, he'd want a hole at least, say, wide enough for all of them to fly through.

[16:12] <Nephrite> roll 18d12
[16:12] <Penuche> Nephrite invokes Penuche's magic: < 92 > [d12=7,1,8,4,3,8,11,9,1,3,3,4,9,4,9,2,2,4]
[16:12] <Nephrite> roll 1d20 touch
[16:12] <Penuche> Nephrite invokes Penuche's magic: < 10 > [d20=10]

[Anastasia]

A single blast burrows a tunnel deep into the dead flesh ahead, able to go follow it as you please.

[Nephrite]

"Shall we?" Moore offers. He lets Xandra go first, but will follow after!

[Anastasia]

Sure. Marching order real quick?

[Nephrite]

Xandra, Moore, Cresiel, Kaja, Jetina, Sylvie.

[Anastasia]

Thus you fly in. You fly for a good time - until you see it opening up ahead again. There's a pale red light ahead, just enough to see by for mortal eyes. Some sort of chamber, a hollowed out place that lies still.

[Nephrite]

Moore will let Xandra proceed if she feels that is the right way to go, but since it's the only place they can see at all anyway...

[Anastasia]

Xandra pauses, "I believe the heart or a heart is a head," she remarks, "The beast may have more than one."

"Great," Sylvie notes, "Come on, before it gets any worse."

[Nephrite]

Moore nods. "Let's go, then."

They will proceed!

[Anastasia]

A vast chamber. A place of dried blood and chambers. Very many fleshy chambers, petrified as you walk in.

Beat.

Beat.

"Oh no," Jetina murmurs, a hand to her mouth.

The walls barely move. There's no blood.

Yet you can feel and hear the faintest sound of a heartbeat.

[Nephrite]

Moore looks around for magic!
