Unlike previous turns, The Herald acts first this time. Its alien intelligence attunes itself to the minds of these new people. An eighth of the world's population lie before it. Many are now praying and begging, trying to gain its favour, while others believe it will not harm them. Some are preparing to shoot it down, and others are already mobilising.
The creature looks at the insides of their heads, forming a web of minds that allow it to live the lives of every human within this region. What it experiences is an even larger failure than it saw in the history of the last place it destroyed. If China is Sodom, then this is to be Gomorrah. It raises a hand, and the people only have moments of warning before a gravitational wave bursts forth to devastate the land. It stretches from New Delhi to Nagpur, pressing down in the form of a colossal and plain circle. Buildings are forced into the earth, and a cylinder is carved into the country. Thousands of years of culture and nature are erased, compressed into a thin disc.
It then rips into the fabric of the world, using long fingers to unravel it and allow physics to become unchained. It moves rapidly, not wanting to be interrupted as it does this.
>Destroy India in its entirety.
>Fracture reality and create a source of energy from it, in order to nourish both itself and its shard with a bountiful source of radiation.
>Actively dodge an attack by rapidly transferring its energy from one point to another, manifesting ahead of itself wherever its own light shines.
