It was about then that Ash and the female arrived.

"Go ahead and try." She snarled, pain in her voice.

"I will use my last dying breath to take you out with me." She promised as she stepped up to Azari, her hands glowing red hot.

"Care to make a move?"

Rowena looked to be in more than just physical pain. Upon closer inspection, Ash was able to see the slight crimson glow in her veins.

That elf had hit her with her mana.

"Ashley... get away from her, before she fully succumbs." The woman warned.

"I can feel it... she was hit with the mana." She added.

"Dammit..." She muttered before pausing a moment and looking to Lindsay. She made her way over, had her hands still glowing red hot, before grabbing the blonde's head with both hands, frying his brain. She knew how her fire was, and knew what it would do to him.

She just hoped he'd do the same to her after wards.

As he died, she laid him down gently before looking to Hazel, who was fighting off the elven influence as she sat on the grassy ground, her back against the step and her head in her hands. She honestly looked to be in a bit of pain with it, but her natural submissive instinct was, surprisingly enough, the one that was being suppressed here slightly.

She was close to dying anyway, that wound that Rowena took was transferring to her. She could heal it, but she needed to be full strength.

And she needed Phoenix fire to kill her, so that she was cleared of any and all mana otherwise.

Her death, was far more explosive, firey, and it didn't take long at all for her body to be reduced to ash. It was before she even if the ground. By the time they were all there, she'd reformed into a bird of fire, let out a cry of some sort, and flew over to Rowena. Lindsay, being the only one with any sort of phoenix in him, understood it clearly.

She had said thank you.

She landed on Ash's head, nipped his ear to tell him to go away for the moment, before fluttering over to Rowena, landing on the ground next to her. She knew she had to do what she could. And the first thing, was removing that blade, which was easy enough with her beak.

As he looked over, he watched the phoenix return to the elven looking form that he'd killed.

"Rowena will survive. She's going to probably need to sleep for awhile though." She commented with a heavy sigh.

"Thank you, Lindsay. I know you never like doing that. It was the only way to make sure that I wasn't succumbing to the bitches mana through your mother." She added before looking to Hazel.

"I'm... not sure how to handle the mana with her though, I admit. My phoenix fire can clear it out of someone, but I'd rather not scar her. Rowena should be clear only because of our connection."

"Kill him." was all the phoenix lady stated.

"I don't care who does it, I will if need be despite it not being my nature. He's caused enough problems to Rowena that I really don't care any longer." She then said.

"Anyhow, Ashley, I'm sure you have questions." She commented, looking toward the Fyrane in question.

"You two, take the two downed ladies off where they can rest, or be restrained in her case," she motioned toward Hazel, "and we can talk. You can ask your questions, and I'll answer as best I can."

"I will be in the kitchen. I need a drink." The woman stated as they headed off.

Sure enough, that was where Ash found her, leaning against the counter, drinking some water. She met his gaze.

"Ask your questions." she stated calmly.

"Zeria." The woman answered.

"My name is Zeria." She added.

"And no, I don't have a family name. Although, if I were to take one, it would likely be Fyrane."

Zeria nodded.

"Precisely." She answered.

"We've met before, you know." She then said after a second or two, which just made Ash look confused as all get out.

"I.. wait. What? What do you mean?" He asked in response. Zeria just shrugged as Lindsay entered the room.

"It just so happens that Zeria is the unfortunate specimen that they used to gather raw material for my particular genetic recombination." He commented. Zeria just motioned to him, as if to say 'what he said'.

"I am also one of the last phoenixes." Zeria admitted with a heavy sigh.

"regardless, yes. I was the one that was used for Lindsay."

"And is why I have no problems with killing the wood elf. He's bound in the other room, by the way. Severely burned, but still breathing."

Zeria was silent for a moment before shrugging.

"I'm with Ashley." She commented.

"Please, go and do the deed. He's got no protections." She added before pausing.

"However, don't linger after you do. All elves die in such a way that they leave something behind for awhile. And I don't mean a body. I mean a dark elf will leave a poison mist, wood elves? Mold, and it's one that you can actually inhale and there will be serious problems if you do." She continued.

"So don't linger too long after you do it. But please, do have fun. Take out some frustrations. He's a disgrace to his kind."
