She then tells them, how her sorta love affair (falling for Zagato actually) was a big no-no for the pillar who watched over Cephiro, and imprisioned herself so that feelings wouldn't get in the way. It was too late for that, and she reveals inorder to save their land, and fulfill her wish, they would have to kill her! She then reveals no one from Cephiro or suicide couldn't kill her, so that's why she summonded them. After attacking them, the girls combine into one machine, kill and proceeds to kill her.
