She's at the point now where necessary sacrifices are still sacrifices. The biggest thing is probably the shock factor. Xiviyah feels very in control of her power, so when things don't work out as she imagines it's very scary.
The shock overwhelmed even my renewed grief at Aurle's death, not to mention my relief that Korra was well. Levin was dead? But how? He should have been like the Apostle of Fire and just been knocked unconscious. Why was he dead?

"Is it done?" he whispered duly. "I can't…not again…"

Haha they're all a *bit* racist. And a bit slow to adjust their expectations.
"Quite impressive. I never would have believed there to be a demon this strong."

The story is about Xiviyah gaining her freedom and happiness. I'll spoil it and let you know she DOES break the Slave Crest, but it doesn't happen immediately.

Thanks for your thoughts and for reading this far! It's always been meant as a dark tragedy, but I can certainly see the point your making. Perhaps I'll include something in the summary so people know what they're in for.

Nah, I mentioned a few paragraphs before that when he shrunk, it left all the blood behind. The blood didn't shrink too :)
I nodded and rested my head against Fable's shoulder, soaking in his warmth. After a few seconds, I struggled to my feet and pushed through the tent flap. Fable followed me in and curled up against the bed, raising a leg invitingly. Rolling my eyes, I collapsed against him. He rested his great head on my lap, and I idly stroked his fur, running my fingers around his horns.

Yeah, but Adaptive resistance only affects magic.
The soft grass was rigid with frost, crunching softly beneath my bare feet, killing any of the lingering morning haze my mind had been under. I bit back a squeak, jumping from foot to foot, feeling for a moment that I'd been plunged into cold water. The bitter breeze curled around my body in icy tendrils, hunting the last of my warmth to extinction.Â

Yup! The life hero is an elf and inherited an elvish name.
She raised a trembling hand and clutched my wrist, pushing it away. "I-it won't work. Your spell. Only R'lissia could…at third level…needs antidote…or sixth…"

She collapsed into another coughing fit, and I nodded. "I'll find them. Before you…you…I'll find them! Just wait for me, Korra, I'll be the one to save you this time."

Prevents all physical damage, including environmental. Xiviyah often gets nervous about things even when her magic should protect her against it. There's been too many times when things haven't got according to her expectations....
One of the Shadow Golems screamed, flying into a wall with enough force to shake the complex. Dust rained down from the ceiling, long cracks splitting the stone apart, but the supports held strong. The monster's eyes dulled, and its body fell limp, the great slashes across its throat finally claiming its life.

The beast language is the only language she knows. Tana speaks the beast language, which is why the guild master brought her. Everyone else in the town is speaking the local language here. For some reason, she's been able to understand bits and patches of it, but the reason is yet unclear.
Drawn in by her warm sincerity, I found myself nodding. My voice was dry and cracked from disuse, barely rising above a whisper, so she leaned close to hear. I had enough presence of mind to keep things vague, especially concerning my origin, but gave her a summary of the wolf attack as best as my hazy memories would allow. She reacted at all the right parts, gasping in fear as I described the chase through the woods and patting my hand as I described the bite.Â

haha this one's important. try checking the first time she went to Brithlite.
My breath caught as the demon kin turned toward me, revealing a young, handsome face. The demonkin felt impossibly familiar, but no matter how hard I tried, the memories stayed just out of reach, taunting me. He had short black hair and a thin scar drawing a line from his eyebrow to his jaw, slicing right through the middle of his eye. His eyes were darker than even the curse demon's, filled with shadows so deep the entire world seemed to vanish into their depths. They stared straight through me to something behind my perspective point, cold and unnerving, yet filled with care and tenderness that felt out of place.Â

I felt her nod. "Yes, the one who helped me break through to sixth level. I was merely a fourth-level mage last year during the Double Gate Incident and could do little more than watch as you suffered and bled for our people. The moment I heard my master was studying Sunpurge, I immediately offered to be her assistant."
