Mountain, meet Endbringer | Glowfic Constellation

The brutes will have difficulty getting out. He's holding on to the shells with his Fate power, and they don't have much leverage from the position of 'already encased'.

He tries to trip Jua with suddenly appearing head-sized obstacles, but she's moving fast enough that he might not be able to get her.

The brutes might start suffocating, then.

As for Jua, she's not only moving fast, she's also very agile, and dodging the obstacles is easy. But she soon has to get rid of her shoes, which she kicks in Tenno's direction with unexpected accuracy.

Before the shoes can connect, she grabs four small throwing knives from her pockets and they're soon glowing brightly again. She throws them one after another, trying to hit Tenno with at least one of them. And of course, whether they hit him or not, all of those objects detonate after a few seconds.

When flying balls of wood and leaves fail to catch the knives he dodges as best he can. As luck would have it, the cut almost through one of his hind legs doesn't actually hinder his movements.

Jua has run beyond the limits of his prepared forest. He pursues, but without much more attention than before. It's taking effort to keep those two brutes down.

She doesn't have superspeed anymore, so she's just running barefoot away from him.

Oh, well in that case he can easily catch up to her enough to create dense field of a certain deep purple flower actively emitting pollen.

She should start to feel sleepy almost immediately after inhaling the stuff.

Zzzzzzzz

Aaaaaand sterilize and wither all the flowers, the pollen will decay in hours at most. Dreambringers are not toys. Oh, right, he should probably do that to the brutes as well as her. They have mouth-and-nose-holes and enough space around the chest to breathe some air and a dose of dreambringer's pollen, now. It probably hasn't been too long but then again he's not that familiar with humans' exact limits.

He gives a dramatic sigh. This place is tiresome, he'd have expected it to collapse entirely years ago if it was made of tiles. He asks the stars, so to speak, if any of the three unconscious humans would (relatively) willingly help him learn the local language but it would only cause more violence.

He peers into the strings of fate once again, asking where he can find an actual civilization.

...well, the strings of fate seem to point at the last town he visited as the nearest example of 'actual civilization.'

Hm. Is the entire planet as lawless? Well, Fate and Fates are inexact at the best of times. Ah well.

He deposits Jua and her goons a few miles away from his forest with a little food and water. He tailors the forest to look more menacing, expands it to the limits of his perception (only another mile or so), and places a variety of carefully-tailored chemical defenses that won't survive outside its bounds. He goes back to using most of his natural ability for seeing fate as a Centaur to try and figure out why most magic won't work here. It's vague, as usual, but he'll unlock this interesting puzzle sooner or later.

A few hours later, he'll sense many fires starting at the edges of his forest.

Well, that will trigger the foaming beans, which will slow the fires down at minimum.

He flies for the edge and makes a quick circuit, smothering sections of fire with a bounty of more foaming beans as he goes. Is it Jua again?

Yes, it is, and the fires are being caused by explosions! Kinda hard to contain.

She is also not alone. Four men, all of them fairly nimble-looking and capable of running preternaturally fast, are carrying various glowing items from Jua to other parts of the forest.

Killing is ugly. Explosions are uglier. POISONOUS FUMES FOR EVERYONE, delivered by alarming-looking flowers suddenly springing up near people and emitting white-orange smoke.

Yikes. This guy's got range, damnable capes. The four speedsters start running away, one of them stopping to grab Jua, but very soon they all start losing balance and fall on the ground, writhing in pain.

Neurotoxin will do that to you.

He gives them each some more, and grows plants through several important body parts, ending it relatively quickly. Gruesome. Unpleasant and disgusting. But pacifism simply wasn't working.

He doesn't try to put out the fires. Too hot and fierce for foaming beans by now. He retrieves some things from the center and flies around, spreading what he recognized as local forage and crops, until it's likely to have burned out.

From then on whenever someone recognizably more than human visits he attempts to scare them away just once, and repeats the poison trick if that doesn't work.

One short, scrawny man comes to visit, not visibly superhuman or anything, accompanied by someone who might be a body guard, but is certainly not as large as Jua's pals were.

He can be met by a tree-golem covered in spikes. "Who is you?"

"I am Empower," he replies in the same language. "Who are you, and what did you do with Sun?"

"I am Tenno. She attacked me. She is dead. Leave or you will die too."

"Will you not take her place?"
