As Howl swoops in, the lash of the whip is so fast the Sanctifier almost doesn't see it coming, through its already cloudy vision. The pain is harsher than the damage itself, as the Kenoma's touch rakes across its already bleeding and damaged in. The corruption of shadows seeps in, fighting against the Sanctifier's purity like an infection.

The Sanctifier roars, covering its eye with their sounded hand, turning its face from Howl and Dionys.
