[Her own powers are pink light constructs, useful not only for combat, but also for helping to light things up further.
Ikaruga has fought under brutal circumstances, enduring and persevering where others would have suffered crushing defeat. She has experienced many kinds of magic.
But never pain quite like this. Her eyes widen and there's a sharp intake of breath as it feels like every part of her is performing a symphony of agony. It hurts too much to speak. All she can manage is to stay upright and keep herself from screaming. It's only when she completely shuts off her powers, not even leaving them in their passive state, that the pain subsides.]
My Astoria granted powers allowed me to cut through doors on the Horologium, so there is a chance.
[One she's willing to take, but she needs to point something out.]
Considering that reaction, I imagine a more forceful use of power would have a proportionate backlash.
