Not liking the look of the now translucent and shaking island, Melkoth began to fly backwards, slowly, in order to see what would happen next.

Haraldur, before his comrades could react, could see where this would be going, having seen it happen years ago to the previous Emporer.
He covered himself and his comrades with warp balls. Due to the residual instability still existing in the planet's magical field, teleportation remained risky, as all horisontal travel would cause turbulence, greater the further you went. The only way to go was up.
The three (plus Ein and Marshall if Ein and Dude Man wish) seemingly blinked out of existance...

Far above the Crimson Palace, small flurries in the grey grasslike objects on the Moon indicated the sudden presence of a creature.
Haraldur stood up and surveyed the strange lunar landscape, the flatness of the lunar grasslands broken by the occasional tree-like thing. The atmosphere was similar to that of Earth, but at a lower pressure (but with a larger proportion being oxygen, so the partial pressure of oxygen was the same, allowing him to breath). A few strange but obviously not sentient grey creatures stared for a few moments before returning to their grazing. Far away, what was obviously a predator could be seen chasing a small creature that seemed to have strayed from its herd.
He could not see his comrades anywhere. Obviously there had been a small sideways displacement, so creating a little bit of scatter.
He waited for a few minutes to acclimatise so that he could sense auras.
Hmmmm... he would have to study the flora and fauna here at some time, it would be fascinating.
//Basically, all sideways teleportation creates randomisation, which increases with distance, but vertical is unaffected. Here, there was small sideways distance, so a little scatter.//

Tesla landed in what seemed to be a grey swamp, splashing about before getting himself to hover above the tepid "waters".

Durruti landed in a tree-like thing, not the most comfortable of arrivals, and swore. Haraldur had better have a good explanation for this.

Quintus climed to the top and waited for Vincent to arrive, in order to tell him to subjugate the surroundings before another land grab.
