[It would be inadvisable to grab her unless you're wearing insulated boots, of course, given the glow. She can no longer call forth the legends of her world's past to smite an enemy, can no longer call down a great meteor to end something in fire that wouldn't dare to touch her and anyone she called hers -
But she could never call those powers without him at her side anyway. And now he's trapped somewhere, some "island", some slice of their Earth, very possibly alone...
She is never going to see Jonathan Morris again, the Bright realizes.]

[The glow seems to be... condensing, or somehow intensifying around her hands. She is shaking as much as her voice sounds ragged - which is to say, quite a lot. There is time for someone to stop her. Truthfully, she hopes someone will, but at the same time...
Maybe this is the Throne Room. Maybe if the power here dies, then -
