There seems to be a short cutscene as Ashen falters before they call out to someone. Their body glitches and warps as there is a short groan of pain before Blood start to bleed from Ashen's orifices, as their back bursts in wings of blood and fiery blooming flowers. Blood and ichor and fall from the gaps of their armor before burning away into a brilliant bright light; the flesh slowly burning away into wings engulfed in unburning flames and flowers.
Ashen's binds are slowly being broken.
