And she is obviously expending more combating your attempts to free your fellows..."

Nevanlinna grimaced. Well then, now what? She couldn't break away from this, and she couldn't think of a way off-hand to force the Maven out of that state... damn it. So it was a battle of attrition, then? Even with Hozon, she wasn't sure she could win such a conflict...

"Hm, shall we compound her troubles, then?" Voyavoda cracked his neck.


Flames of the Golden Ruler-Technique Synthesis ~Aura Magetta's Cleansing Flames~

Suddenly, the Nuova Phoenix Armor he had been maintaining for quite some time exploded outward, covering the battlefield--and beyond--in a roaring inferno.


However, curiously, these flames did not burn--using his mastery of his ki and refined techniques, Voyavoda wove together Aura Magetta and Cleansing Flame, amplified by (incomplete, at this juncture, sadly) the Nuova Phoenix Armor he had just "expended" to create a wide-ranging inferno that would aid the princess' efforts to free this group of knights. He had proven the theory that this corruption could be cleared by Cleansing Flame against that Golden Knight... so surely this would force that witch to expend even more energy to counteract his efforts and the princess'. If nothing else, it would tip a battle of attrition in their favor... or maybe even force her to appear in one place.

And, as a cherry on top of all of this, Voyavoda waded into the group of knights, to apply even more Cleansing Flames the same way he had against that knight--focused through the Phoenix Eye Fist.

Heh, he was quite enjoying himself. It had been a good idea to offer to come here in Toto's stead, and it was proving to be quite the ample distraction from thoughts of his wife's... passing.

[Flames of the Golden Ruler-Technique Synthesis ~Aura Magetta's Cleansing Flames~ is improved by +3 tiers above Voya's normal level of capability. Counter reset and Nuova Phoenix armor and Aura Magetta are unusuable until technique is ended.]
The added oomph does cause a reaction.

As the Nevadian starts purifying several knights, he feels the new aura he had added to Neva’s own suddenly...warp.

A massive cold starts to settle in the area, and you notice one hapless Priestess freeze entirely and than shatter.
