Safrin's power, even when channeled through a demigod as new to the position as Hadama, was no small gift. Healing flowed into Zavien and Aurelia from the glowing mist, soothing away pain and knitting together skin, even as it chased the lingering chill from their blood.
Zavien's shot may have been a desperate gamble, but the Villi was hampered by the same mist that rejuvenated the mortals. Slowed and unable to dodge, it took the blast of Arclight water to its knee and roared in fury at the second saltwater assault as it stumbled and fell to the parched grass. Clawed hands scrabbled for its sword, but Talyson, scowling fiercely as he moved up to support the Dragoon, lashed out with his Dagger to slice at one of the vengeful spirit's tattooed arms. "Abso-fuckin'-lutely not," he growled. The jab crossed the distance to his target, invisible but startlingly effective. The Villi's arm dropped to its side, but it bared sharp teeth and attempted to stagger to its feet and close the distance to Zavien once more.
Which was when Aurelia's fire leapt from her hands to the spirit's incorporeal chest, catching its ghostly furs and hair aflame as it reignited the place her previous strike had landed. Finally the apparition stumbled back, a flicker of fear in its mad eyes as it tried to flail the fire out. Once again it was hampered by the mist, however, though the fire was unaffected. Its roar turned to a scream, no less filled with rage but now echoing with despair as its ectoplasm burned away, until not even ash remained.
The silence that followed was nearly deafening, and Tal coughed a little smoke from his lungs. He looked briefly sheepish but his concern was all for Zavien and Aurelia as he looked between them with pale, worried eyes. "Is everyone okay? I can do some healin' if y'need it," he offered his teammates - though his gaze occasionally darted at the hills around them as if expecting something else to jump out.
