>We pummeled the shard harder and faster with our elite units, and began succeeding in carving out more manageable chuncks for containment within smaller sarcophagi.
>The shard ended up segmenting into 8 pieces before it would subdivide no more.
>But the many shards still fought on.
>A Cryptek of the inner Voekhet court, High Transmogrifer Ishskar, took the initiative in making sure we would collect them all.
>Taking the risk of entering direct striking distance of a C'tan shard, High Transmogrifer Ishskar measured the resonance of the C'tans' energy and twined a chord of the same frequency for his Harp of Dissonance.
>High Transmogrifer Ishskar then repurposed a damaged Heavy Sapaptek Construct's core as an amplifier, and blasted the first shard with his new chord.
>The blast itself was a level of immensity above the already glowing world, as the atmosphere between the C'tan shard and High Transmogrifer Ishskar was briefly converted into pure C'tan star matter.
>The shard's body's natural resonance was overloaded, and it began to shake itself appart.
>His body began to bloat as he lost the ability to maintain homeostasis, involuntarily set on a trajectory for supernova.
>The Scarabs prevented this by using the pause in the shard's attacks to finish constructing that sarcophagus that would contain its power.
>The scene was repeated 7 times, ourselves protecting High Transmogrifer Ishskar behind the legions of our bodies.
