Miki did enjoy having someone else along with her, for various reasons. Not the least of which was that in her normal life, her old one, she was often left completely alone. Most people wouldn't approach her because she was an idol and famous and the ones who did weren't usually the types she wanted to deal with. The only people she had regular contact with worked for her, now she was managing to make friends ones who weren't on the payroll and ones who she could have equivalent exchanges with, and there was something about this she found utterly satisfying. Too bad she didn't have a lot of time to think about the happiness of this situation. Right at the moment there was a Shade and making sure it didn't do, whatever it was planning was quite important.
"Right, Shade in the forest, breaking down the barrier to the Underworld. Definitely going to need to fix this, on all fronts..." she said aloud but in a quick whisper to mostly herself though she fully acknowledged having someone else along. Attaining the Soul Stone of this Shade was the most important thing she could do. Getting it would stop it from being able to use it, and it was rumored that holding the Soul Stone of a Shade made it yours. She didn't have any intention of using such a creature, but potentially it would give her the ability to cleanse it quickly and deal with the dimensional gap to the Underworld. "Alright, I'll just Snatch his Soul Stone. Still, if I do it without knowing about where it is, he'll feel the brush of my magic and I'll lose the element of surprise," she murmured. "I'll need to draw some attention get him to move like he's protecting it, then I can take it directly," she concluded with a plan of attack which left her slamming one fist into her open palm. "Yosh! Show time."
A sharp whistle escaped the girl's lips, thrown slightly off of where she was. Immediately after, her spear weapon began to fly through the air, as if she was pinpointing something to the left of the creature. It looked up from its celebration and moved off to the back of the Circle of desecrated Runestones. As he moved around he seemed to be aiming to protect a specific body. An Miki watched from behind a tree with narrow eyes. "Sou ka, that makes sense, he hid it on one of the bodies. No one is going figure a Shade would hide his soul stone on a corpse..." she mumbled slapping her forehead with her open palm. Still there was more to be done. She moved her spear around, having it whiz through the air as the Shade got distracted trying to defend itself with a magical barrier Miki smirked lightly. "Fox Assault..." she used the attack which was more supplementary than an actual attack and felt the magical pull of something rather intense. Within a second a glowing red stone was in contact with her hand and the shade simply stopped moving completely. Her own calming nature stopping it from fretting as her spear returned to pillow form. "Technical CC is a pretty big fucking weakness if you can get it off him. It's like Pick-pocketing a Briarheart in Skyrim," she said the tension in her shoulders relaxing. 'I'm really lucky that worked... if it hadn't it would have known exactly where I was. Maybe I should have added Presence Concealment to this build...' she thought absently as she approached the creature.
It was still now. Its whole body apparently stuck because of what Miki had done taking hold of its Stone. The one which corresponded to it, was still hanging around its neck and glowing a violent magic. "Hush now, we are almost done here..." she mused. Miki reached up and placed her hand over the creatures heart, pulsing her Mana directly into it, and also into the stone in her other hand. Doing both of these things simultaneously began the process of cleansing this creature. But given the restored and new affixes to her Mana, her Purging of this creature would occur at a much faster rate. An almost instanteous pulse caused its body to glow white and then turn to dust as its Soul gathered within the stone and its body was released from its half-life state. His body aimed to collapse but Miki arranged it in funerary form. She'd be doing with with every body present, but there were other problems like the still open portal to the Underworld. "I wonder... can you talk to me now? I mean I should probably figure out what I need to do for you, before this portal is closed..." she asked of Enkidu. She'd work while they conversed but she did need to figure out how to help him, likely before she closed this portal, if she could close it.
