( Erasmus is still in Dock 13. He never left. )

The large Colossus rained death upon Dock 13, with his underlings marching in literal phalanx formations; Phalanxes surrounded a Centurion or lesser Colossus and moved across the room, allowing heavy artillery to rain down upon the ground. The Warlock found himself constantly shifting between waist high covers because it was being destroyed. Things were becoming increasingly difficult; so much so to the point that the Sky Burners had all pretty much flooded the access hall between Dock 13 and The Steppes. Psions ran between gaps in the Phalanx formations, and Legionaries poked out from broken windows and laid down supressing fire. It was literally impossible to flank them, because of their numbers.

"You think they're angry that we killed their Primus?" Cassius remarked with some snark in his voice.

"Do shut up. This isn't the time nor place for jokes." Erasmus looked around Dock 13, searching for some way to block off the Cabal incursion. And then it hit him; an idea. Dragging out his rocket launcher, Erasmus feigned his intentions by targeting the Sky Burners commander. The Colossus released a bellowing laughter that echoed through the room. And then the Warlock switched targets and fired off a rocket. His target? The archway above the door.

The solar rocket easily burned through the corroded metal, sending mountains of debris raining down from the ceiling. Huge chunks of metal and concrete crushed the Cabal beneath, leaving no entry in from the Steppes. Psions were still able to slip through the windows, as well as any Guardians who might pass by. The bulk of the incursion had been blocked off, but the Sky Burners commander was still inside the room, accompanied by 6 Phalanxes.

"I do hope you have some other bright idea. There's still a very angry Valus staring straight at us." Cassius commented, with a bit of fear in his tone.
