Ashelia finds herself on the mountainside very suddenly. She looks around, trying to gain her bearings, but the sound of the explosion doesn't help matters. She ducks, covering her head with her hands at the unexpected noise. After a moment she looks up, spotting the grisly scene as it nears its end - and then begins anew.

She makes her way over cautiously. Even after so long, she reaches into her mind for her buffing spells on instinct - and to her surprise, there they are. She reaches out a hand to cast on Luffy as well - he can clearly use the help - but nothing happens. I don't...

As much as she doesn't really like the young pirate, she doesn't like seeing him so defeated. He is still, after all one of the displaced Heroes. Unsure of how to proceed, and cluing into the fact that she apparently can't affect anything that's going on, Ashelia approaches Luffy directly.

"Remember yourself, Luffy - this is not you! Your will is stronger than this. You have endured far worse."
