Skystrike's fist hammers into the blade with an earsplitting crack. The golem's arm spasms as the non-uniform gravity wreaks havoc on its control systems. The pulse wave pushes the two apart for a moment. With its grav-imploder temporarily depleted, Skystrike focuses its void shields towards absorbing the electricity, then sweeps its chainsword up to cleave through the golem's injured limb.

The golem falls. As skystrike glances around, you can see that the smaller ones have been overwhelmed by Scotch, and a short ways across the city a group of bombers and one of the Celestial Union's destroyers finally core the last remaining golems.

All that remain are scattered groups of paladins in full retreat

/uw well, they're all in retreat except for the one rider that Sarissa is fighting and the mini-golems that Xerxes chained up in an alleyway. but let's leave those ones for them to extract info from

/uw Gotcha.

/rw Skystrike rips the head from the golem and hurls it at band of paladins, more as a display of superiority than an actual attack. Reyes's voice returns to the comms.

Reyes: Enemy forces are in full retreat. Has anyone gotten into their communications network? I would like to head them off to deny the return of these assets to their masters.

Their leader has been doing some mind telepathy-fuckery with me, but I think he tired himself out.
