Syra's blood ran cold as her eyes fell on the deadly shells. The conversation continued around them, the Witch's slave even seemingly accusing Ash and Syra of the cannon's creation. Her focus returned as the Witch explained her own coming to The Rock. Not unlike Syra's in detail. Both, the last of their group, both the only survivor trapped on this world. The main difference was that while Syra ended up a thrall, the Witch became wealthy, powerful, powerful enough to have left whenever she chose. The mountains of gold around them a testament to her wealth and power. Now Syra was angry, how dare she play the victim card, how dare she try and sway their hearts to her "suffering".

"How dare you. How dare you demand anything from us for items you don't rightfully own, and acknowledge are a danger to this world. How dare you stand in the way of us disposing of these shells and their cannon to ensure this world doesn't become an intergalactic battleground! I've seen worlds covered in the fire of wars they never asked for, and as much as I despise this world, I can't bring myself to want it destroyed by those who care for only power. Sorillians may have made this weapon, but we will destroy it, and we will take these shells and rid the world of any trace they were ever here,"

she shook her head as she stepped toward the Witch of the wastes, pointing an accusatory finger,

"You want to be the victim so badly that you play hermit here among your gold, claiming "woe is me, all my friends died and left me here all alone" meanwhile you have enough gold to run an empire, meaning you could have left whenever you pleased! You're scared of something, someone, that's why you stay. that's why you kill all those who could expose you. That's why you hide these weapons of terrible destruction. The Brotherhood is dead, Scourge defeated by the Organization, Oblivion is gone, defeated by the same Organization. Seed is disbanded, destroyed from within, and finished by, the Organization. Those who refused to acknowledge the end of the war are why I'm stuck on this shithole. You stayed by choice, afraid to face whatever it was you were running from. You keep these people chained, away from the world to do your bidding because it makes you feel powerful. You have no power, not really. You may be a Phoenix, but that does not make you special!" She steadied her breathing, trying to balance her emotions before they got out of control. "We will do you the favor of taking these shells of your hands, because if we don't, someone more powerful will, and they won't be asking as kindly as we are. So in a way, taking these from you is its own payment. You get to maintain your delusion of power and influence, and we get to keep those who would kill every soul on The Rock at bay."
