Through The Living Ash he/him Posted February 3 Posted February 3 5 minutes ago, edgyswordname said: The plot slips away from 9/10mmHB#2 as its author disappears to spend time with his family. When it returns, Malevolence is completely unaffected by the Anti-Stormlight rhythm, and Fog has collapsed into a pool on the ground. Time slips back into regular speed, and it manages to cut a rift that diverts most of the bullets harmlessly into the sky, except two. One hits it in the right ankle, the other strikes it in the upper part of his left arm. It grits its teeth. Ribbon is here, talking to the thing that is no longer Fog. Just have to buy some time… The pen only has a little ink left. It clutches its arm and limps towards Malevolence. curious, how does nullite work? Nullite cancels Narration within a small field around it, as well as many other forms of magic. It’s the Essence of Ordered Darkness.

And I wasn’t projecting Anti Stormlight, I was projecting the physical vibration that transforms isolated Stormlight into anti- light. They aren’t on Roshar, so, if I’m understanding the mechanics of Nullite correctly, Malevolences Stormlight and armor no longer functions without or with the need for the anti light vibration.

He is too determined to be killed by something like a random flame. A second Guardian of Plot Significance splits off from the first one and points his (copy) Plotblade at 9/10, clearly beckoning for him to make the first move.

He continues towards Malevolence, who seems to think his armor still works even though that’s not how nullite works. Quote So…. It cancels Stormlight?

Well then, you should tell your Author that it's rather confusing to name two characters so similarly.

Nullite does not necessarily produce an anti-magic field, although it can be used to nullify powers. It is itself almost impossible to affect with Narration or other magics, and has a Silencing effect, hence why the vibrations didn't get through it. Malevolence's armor is built to be insulated so that it does not affect him, and also doesn't run on Stormlight, which he was only using to heal. 15 minutes ago, edgyswordname said: He is loathe to run away.

That’s cheating :3 Not out of cowardice, at all, but out of the complete lack of desire to obtain the Plotblade of Plot Significance, 9/10mmHB#2 stumbles away from the Guardian, cutting a rift to the other arena. Instead of the other arena, when he steps through, he finds himself back on the cliff side. He seems to be losing focus. Blood loss does that to normal human beings. Spoiler Well that went well.

NameIess Posted February 3 Posted February 3 2 minutes ago, edgyswordname said: So… its weakness is TLT magic or like, the Soft Blade? The Soft Blade? Nullite isn't indestructible. Malevolence is using it mainly to prevent Narration from affecting him, although protecting him from other magics is a benefit as well. It does prevent him from using any external magics, such as using Darkseeker's powers. which is part of why he wasn't using the armor until now. If Nullite had a 'weakness' it would be Enullers, who could control it as well as Narrators control Prismite (which is what their cores are made of). 5 minutes ago, Aeoryi said: The Guardian laughed as the Nulling rays hit him, growing larger with every single blast.

But if Fog had trouble, I doubt the Soft Blade would be much use, so that’s enough context.
