The Shelled Princess could at least give the woman the benefit that she was insistent on this non-sense she kept uttering about this whole flame of passion. It seemed rather misguided to the mind of The Demoness because of the fact it lacked a solid foundation in her eyes. All it ran on was the perceived faith that the woman would just bulldoze her way into every circumstance to make it work. And while confidence was needed to be able to make any ambition come to dream, as to was the trait of having stability and a guided path. And to Neoveta, this woman lacked a hard plan to follow through on her ambitions and it could only end in disaster as far as she was concerned.

"Yes, it's rather noble to want to help me with every fiber of your being, but I do not feel that is going to do either of us any good if that only leads you down the path of destruction. The road to hell is often paved with good intentions; ask any soul in the underworld below our feet."

There was then a tired sigh which exhaled from the mouth of Neoveta as she seemed rather exhausted from this whole ordeal and wanted to honestly get it over with if it would please the woman. Though, at least it seemed as if she were beginning to take note of the words The Princess heeded her. After all, she possessed enough insight to know that she was rather terrible at getting someone sold with her sales pitches. If nothing else, The Demoness assumed that the shinigami was going to try a bit harder the next time she tried to "save" someone with a better means of convincing them than the mess which was presented to her earlier.

At any rate, Neoveta didn't care to waste too much time here. Therefore, she felt more inclined to get this over with and reached out to teach the woman's hand.

"Do whatever it is you are going to do, shinigami. I don't care. Just get it over with so I can observe the phenom with my own eyes and discern whether or not it is truly as effective as you say."

Stern and to the point, this shell meant business and was curious as to when this whole affair was meant to begin. There was nothing that changed at first, and she could not feel any new "power" or "will" being infused into her; not that it would be easy to begin with due to the structure of her very existence. Still, a word of warning was always nice and she decided to add one bit of fina dialogue before taking time to observe whatever ritual or effects this whole procedure would entail.

"Now tell me: when is this whole ability supposed to activate? I would like to at least prepare myself before I'm dragged into something that you don't understand and have no clue as to how it may affect me."

She had finally convinced Neoveta to come and take her hand. Which was good, because Devil's Heart was useless without consent. They had to decide they desired to have the problems in their life ease, and to gain something that would fight in countenance to their problems. But there was something going wrong with her activation. She could feel it ramping up and getting ready to unleash itself, but it wasn't actually doing anything right now. Which was strange because before it was really an instant sort of thing. Maybe she had done something wrong with the hand grasping?

"Vizard, thank you. Plus my name is Ulv, so you can use that instead of just a racial title, and the wrong racial title at that. Still, it is supposed to happen immediately. And, well I guess something is happening, I can feel it raising in response to my commands but it isn't really doing anything right away. Maybe your desire is so great that it needs time to prepare. Maybe you are so confused, have such a broken heart that it needs time to see if there is any part of you that has a desire to fix yourself. Maybe it's just reorienting itself to your....unique existence. I'll give it a little longer and then see if I can't tinker with it. This might take a little while longer than expected, but I am not giving up at the first sign of trouble"

Ulv clearly and distinctly ignored the idea of her going to hell or dying. Neither prospect existed in her mind, for both reeked of failure, and she would not fail. There was no plan B because that assumed that Plan A could fail.

Initially -- there wasn't much of a change in Neoveta that she could feel. All felt normal for many moments as she did not comprehend if this ability was even working correctly. However, the words of Ulv soon became distant and fuzzy as The Princess gave her a funny look as if she hadn't understood anything she spoke of. And then, a thunderclap of a headache rocked the woman's head as if she had gotten struck from a comet by the divine will of God himself.

It is in that moment of all-encompassing pain that The Shell was seen vomiting a pool of solid black blood everywhere as her eyes soon became engulfed in shadows. There was nothing but inaudible noises coming forth from the throat of The Princess as her whole body and mind felt overloaded with so much suffering. This surge of torment forced the demoness to then fall on her knees as she grabbed her chest and more of this murky substance bled forth from her ears, nose, and skin as her wings soon shifted from their scarlet hue to one as dim as the night itself.

At this point, it was obvious that the ability was having an effect, but not quite the positive note that the shinigami had desired. From having her heart closed to others, the disbelief in Ulv's power, to Algea's own spirit not being fully developed in this existence and the divine blood flowing forth in her body; there were many different factors at play which resulted in this violent reaction that The Replica Shell's body had. It showcased how fractured her whole being was due to this immense spiritual, physical and mental pain that her body was undergoing in this point in her life.

Despite this painful transformation, however, it was apparent that something loathsome was leaving her spirit. Those portion of her cracked spirit was cleansing itself of this pain slowly but surely and beginning to accelerate the rebirth of Algea's whole body in the depths of demon world. Even despite the otherworldly pain that Neoveta was under, she could sense her other half beginning to develop at an accelerated rate. This mostly had to do with the fact that Ulv was still a shinigami, and a powerful one at that. So given the highly potent energy within her, it did not stand to reason that the primary function of a shinigami's life was to help spirits reincarnate in the soul cycle. Thusly, that is what the body of Algea was in the process of doing and it was her will that was trying to come forth back into existence to otherwise purge this abyss her shattered remains were cast under.

Still, one could not cast away that lifetime of pain from a person with such an easy ability as wanting to heal and convert them with but a whim. So it would take time for this to process correctly in the body of the replica shell, so it suffered until it could otherwise stabilize itself and come to terms with its own internal suffering. It is why her body gave a demonic snarl before releasing a high volume of energy that otherwise blew all the sand around them into nothingness. In one foul angry scream, the woman then bolted out of there to start the search for that shell of Algea so the process of reformation could begin.

There was spin up, like the Flame was keying into Neoveta's existance and then finally kicking into gear and starting to act. The scale of Neoveta's desire was so large that Ulv's mind was quickly lost to the passionate and tantalising hysteria. Her Resolve Flame always tried to draw her to dance in the planes of her will when the Devil's Heart was used, but usually she managed to fend it off, wanting to be present for the person to help them cope with what they would be feeling. But the depths of Neoveta's desire were such that Ulv was dragged bodily into these fields with no chance to refuse.

The Flame wanted more, and so Ulv gave it as she danced. The flame demanded more, and Ulv fulfilled it's demands. Higher and higher she climbed, until it all stopped, and she was back in the real world. Her legs like jelly and her lungs like iron.
"Was existing always this hard?" she asked, swaying a little on the spot.
'No, but you burned so much energy I had to step in and stop your body from collapsing in on itself. What is it with you people and trying to kill yourself?' Hvit asked, a shrill but still melodious voice. Looking down, she saw her pants were round her ankles, because her hips had burned out and shrunk so far that they couldn't hold anything up. Her arms looked like painted bone, and there was a definite rasp to her breath and voice. This had been the greatest expenditure of energy ever, even accounting everything Mirja had ever gotten up to.

Neoveta...had gone. Completely and utterly. At first, Ulv thought it was because she had killed herself, her desire to stop the pain and be at peace being resolved with death. But, that didn't feel right. The whole thing just, felt like it was a wrong assumption from head to toe.
'Come on, let's get out of here. My power will sustain us for a time. Can you call your peripheral wind?' Hvit asked Ulv, who shifted her weight and heard her body creak from the effort.
"No...can grab my Personal Wind though" she groaned, spinning The Wind and moving onwards. Inami's place was close, and Ulv quite literally crashed into her bedroom. Ulv had gotten Inami to give her a modest room for when she came to stay overnight. And right now it was nice~
