the devil is not as black as he is painted
It pleases The Voice more than Isla can know that she hasn't been summoned to the Temple. Here, in the ground where her presence was first re-felt by her children, seems an appropriate and welcome place to be called. Appearing without sparks or zing, the Voice looks not unlike how a medical patient might after a prolonged stay in a hospital. Discharged but still weak, she appears without fanfare, merely materializing upon the shrine.
"Loss is something we must expect, and yet that does not make it any easier to bear." The Voice agrees. "I am pleased with how you have handled the Grounds during your reign Isla. Now tell me just how you would like this weapon to function."
