For a moment there came no movement from the Last Emperor. No shrug nor blink. No heave of the chest as he breathed nor a single sound. Only stillness. Only the cold mystique that cut through the air like a steel blade. "Hahahaha, what feelings?", Impero mocked, his rasped laughter flowing out the slit of his mask. "In any case", he paused, mouth pulled back into the subtlest of smirks behind his expressionless mask. "It seems your talent for meddling with things beyond your... understanding is alive as ever", he said, the microcircuit in his mask warding of all the non-EM energies mingling round his ex-wife, be they reality bending, telekinetic, psychic - all non-EM energies fell to the word of his mask's neutralizing frequencies.
"Gods... what are gods? Godhood is attained by those who impose their moral order upon the world. On the less remarkable who foolishly accept socially imposed notions of moral responsibility. Shape the world, be a god", Impero said, his sharp eyes following Clarice's every stride like arrows with a target. "Anyone can be a god. Most of the world simply hasn't realized it. Apparently", he taunted, arms still folded behind his back, posture still calm, his mask still hiding his every smirk and facial tic. "As for my blood", Impero began, his voice colder now, darker, "I will see to it that they're freed. This dimension you speak of may be beyond the reach of your powers, but no game is easier to play than fooling gods", he promised with cold self-assurance, his thoughts on the bastard lavaliere he'd forged and the role it'd play in breaching the dimension that held his children.
"And while I tend to that", Impero smirked, sly as his mask caught the massive surge of energy headed their way, "You can tend to the powerful presence coming your way", he laughed, his body fading as he teleported away to parts unknown.
