Genes was on her feet instantly, excited. Her battle gear glittered in the raiment of the ethereal being's light, and she looked almost as unearthly. As the being engulfed them, and expelled them into the real world, she gave a cry of passionate delight.

"The messenger from the Gods! They have given us new purpose! See?" she waved her shortsword at her surroundings, "Like Heracles, our legacy is not over."

Nobody that looked into her face could deny the utter faith and conviction of her own words. She seemed to radiate confidence that she had, by some divine intervention of the seemingly dormant Gods, been given a second chance to maybe kill the Beast and survive.
