She had remained where she knelt though the searing agony had long since stopped trying to tear her skull apart. The Weave, that which bound her to everything and everyone all at once had become a source of overwhelming pain, something she was unable to endure for long before severing all but the thinnest strand. The emptiness that the Severing caused was an echoing void within her, leaving a portion of her soul feeling like it had been shattered and was only now trying to rebuild itself. continued to kneel in the soft loam until the ground beneath her feet roared with an anger, with a hatred not it's own. When the soil beneath her began to buck and heave she rose unsteadily to her feet and looked about in alarm. Only now was she realizing her danger and when large chunks of rock began to plummet from the sky, chunks that had been torn up elsewhere and flung some distance only to land on her unprotected head did she flee. Scurrying up a thick oak she launched into the sky gaining height as rapidly as she could. When she looked down all that met her eyes was devastation. The trees were uprooted, the ground twisted and broken wide in some places. Smoke seeped from the fissures and the dead animals were abundant. Kyrr spiraled around her, a questioning to her mindsending. She didn't know what had happened, and wasn't sure she wanted to.
