I may be the hand of Mystriel... I may be her instrument of justice. I realize I am forever her servant. I will still stand for what I believe. If there are those who will oppose her, They must stand against me. I will not give in.
Ilyia paused at the mention of whether it would hurt or not. As an agent of Light, she literally could only employ Light, even if distilled into a positive energy. In that same sense, her questions demanded to be asked, and she lowered her arm to her side again and frowned slightly in contemplation.
"It shouldn't..." she said quietly, "but I have to ask.... Is there anything you're aware of that might twist a positive energy source into hurting?"
Again her headpiece shone for a moment as she tapped into the magic she had riveted through it. Her only hope for the immediate situation held that her reluctantly-employed falsehood echo had been cast without need.

Ilyia nodded and reached again for Adeska's hand, allowing a minute weave tentatively to flow over her arm and through the girl, a restrained effort to heal her with enough initial slow to ensure that if it did go poorly she would have plenty of time to alert the Creation of any pain.

Ilyia smiled sincerely and nodded slightly with a look to the railing behind her, sighing with relief.
"I'm glad I could help," she said as she dismissed the glow of the headpiece, "I was worried it might have caused you harm, so please understand I had to take it pretty slowly."
She picked herself up to her feet and looked about for a moment before returning her gaze to Adeska with a smile.
"How do you feel?"

"Hm-oh!" Ilyia laughed, "I wouldn't be the one to ask about that, Adeska. You'd have to ask the captain or your mother. I'm just a... guest, here. I'm sure once we get to know each other a little more you'll figure it out."
Quite suddenly though, a chill ran down her spine and she cast an alarmed look out at sea. In the distance a blackening of the sky could be made out and Ilyia's face darkened with worry.
"Seras," she said with a scowl, "of course, right as we're coming close."

Ilyia had just about turned to run to Jack and Calypso before halting still-unmoved. How could she explain herself, especially now?
"We're under attack," she said simply, quietly, "and I think I know who's coming..."
She covered the distance between herself and Jack in a scant three running steps and relayed the same news to him with an indicative wave of her arm.
"I can hold him off for a while on his way here, but if you have anything that can break through a massive defensive then I suggest you bring it out. This one isn't likely to spare the ship in even his first offense."

Adeska------------------------------------------
-------------------Nessin
I was a child of sin.
I carry my mother's power.
I was possessed.
Jack hesitated for a moment, looking towards his mother.
"I can protect the ship for a while, conceal it, surround it. I could try..." An idea came to the Goddess' mind but it was a difficult one. "I could try moving the ship through the ocean, but I would need help," She looked to Jack who raised his eyebrows, then looked to Adeska who had shadowed Ilyia. "No, she isn't strong enough-"
"Strong enough for what mother? I survived hundreds of years of torture, no?" Adeska countered, an edge of anger creeping into her voice. Jack grinned, finding his match for temper. Calypso was compelled to say no more but looked at Ilyia pleadingly.
"Just let us know what is needed to be done," Jack said, flexing his fingers. Calypso sighed and touched the tendril of ocean that crawled along the railing.
"It will need some preparation," She said before looking at Ilyia again. "Distract our opposition for a while and I will do what I can,"
This is no more.
I am my own master.

Ilyia nodded, though as she lifted her head again she appeared to be followed by a slight blur of silver images to her exact movements, and seemingly unhindered by any force whatsoever she floated away towards the gathering black. A flash of silver away from her figure towards the central point in the upper reaches indicated she had at the very least found her target, but her movements slowed drastically thereafter.

Adeska------------------------------------------
-------------------Nessin
I was a child of sin.

I was possessed.
The Duchess seemed to sink in the ocean from the view of anyone not aboard it. In a display of strength, Calypso forced the ocean away from them, creating a hole in the water where the Duchess sat, surrounded by water. Cries came from the crew, and all froze in fear. Calypso's eyes opened and she looked at Jack, the power radiating from them astounding. "We traveled like this before, latch onto the feeling and hold your sister's hand,"
Jack hesitated before doing as he was told under his mother's glare, and although Adeska tried to protest, she too was silenced and numbly looked at Jack as he concentrated. In a lapse of concentration, the water crashed down upon them, but as the first drop hit, the Duchess was stretched out over the seas. It seemed to spring from the water before the cove of Dresdidian and the sails dripped water. Adeska coughed up water and rolled onto her side, having been forced flat. Jack was unconscious, slumped against the railing, while Calypso ran a hand through her hair, water pooling around her.
"That could have gone better," She murmured, exhausted. Her eyelids dropped before they snapped open and looked towards the horizon, hoping to catch a glimpse of Ilyia. The rest of the crew were on the deck, struggling to dry off, or in some cases stand. The unlucky ones were in the rigging, their skin torn by the ropes.
This is no more.
I am my own master.

A small silver bubble could be seen against the artificial night sky, and after mere moments a colossal burst of black erupted from it and a minute silver speck could be seen plummeting to the depths below. At the same time a small silver shimmer broke free within the captain's cabin and the door opened to reveal Ilyia quite unharmed, with an appreciative look to the blade she had left in Tessa's care.
"Well, now that he thinks I'm dead..." she said casually.
She ran back to the balcony and repeated the same incantation the had used against Isobel, and a silver mass blasted right through the black skies in the distance.
