[Snakes Alive]

Shanti tries to be more gentle than she was with the demon, she wasn't completely without mercy. But as she said she also had to be firm with the staff or she would have to bonk Lapis twice.

But with nothing else afflicting Lapis, the staff's eyes glow green. Seemingly confirming that she was fine.

"That should do. Thank you, child. Looks like you're clear... but you've recently changed haven't you?" Shanti looks to Lapis, hoping that she would elaborate.

What should be done with the demon, well, that was the commanders decision now. Not hers. She had given her advice already.
