Rahja has barely any time to notice the majestic display of the silver dragon deity saving the civilians. Still, it is a huge relief to her, elating her heart and bringing a smile to her face. The horde in front of her, however, will hardly be stopped by a few arrows, even with as much damage as they do. But then she hears about the cracks being vulnerable to physical harm.

"We need to close the cracks!" she says, briefly interrupting her song during a natural pause, though the performance continues with a brief physical flourish. "Nasiri, please, fly up as high as you can!" Hoping the beautiful couatl will heed her words, Rahja's fluid steps carry her behind Celestica, wrapping her free arm around the elven maiden's waist. "Please, trust me," the aasimar whispers. Once Nasiri has reached a sufficient height, Rahja teleports herself and Celestica onto Nasiri's back, holding on tight onto her newfound friend and the couatl. "It's okay, Nasiri, it's us! This is high enough!" she says immediately to not alarm her.

Just as Rahja feels the critical point where her performance would be interrupted entirely, she picks it up again, singing again, but this time, more beautifully and powerfully than before, coaxing every little bit of skill and emotion out of herself and weaving it into a crescendo unlike anything the others have ever heard. All of Rahja's allies feel empowered, like they can take on worlds and defeat innumerable armies in order to protect what they cherish. All of her enemies can't help but be stricken with ineptitude before these heroes, any attempt at retaliation doomed to fail. But all get the feeling that what comes now will be the stuff of legends, as sung by Rahja's celestial voice.

With everything in place, Rahja lets go off Celestica's waist, leans back and aims her bow upwards towards the cracks, the colors of her weapon and the arrows she sends skywards shining with the truest light. Her song guides every projectile and every attack by her allies to it's destined target, striking with perfection so that the end of the battle will be brought swiftly and peace will be restored once more.
