Howlyn slowly opened her eyes. Her vision adjusted little by little, then she saw Niara and Darian, both watching her lightly.
"!"
She felt a strange warmth... like... she quickly sat up, then felt her changed body in shock.
She felt her blood flowing, red and without any corruption. Her body, even though still purple and marked, was also completely clean. Life was running inside her again.
Darian got excited. He managed to break her connection for two reasons. First: She was physically too injured, had drained all her little life energy, and had no intention of killing him.
Darian saw, when she was building up power, that the connection got subtly unstable. And the arrows? With the power of the evolved rings, dominating that was as easy as breathing.
Then, the second reason was the terrifying rune seal on the weapons he stole; combined with the black power inside them, he had enough power to pull off that miracle.
