"As I have caused this, so must I make amends. I apologise for harming you all, but I needed to bring an end to the fight."
Anima seemed sorrowful and close to tears, before waving her staff in an elegant manner.
"Come forth, Hestia the Hearthmaiden."
A blue fire formed and a little girl in a white tunic, adorned with gilding and jewellery appeared. Her eyes seemed to be giving off warmth and fire.
"I am Hestia. What is required of me, Mistress?"
'Heal my allies, O Hearthmaiden."
"As you wish."
Hestia summoned up a fire about as tall as herself, which seemed to warm the wounded. It then began to remove the glass from their wounds, and healed them.
Anima seemed apologetic.
"I did not see a way to end a fight that did not require that, not without more harm coming. For that, I am sorry."
She then turned to Gintama, and her voice turned from apologetic to furious.
"Silence, drunkard. Thank the gods I am willing to even tolerate you, let alone heal your wounds. Your heroism does not balance the sheer disgusting behaviour you have. You will not listen to this, but I will say it anyway. You are fortunate I even consider you a grudging ally, let alone a battlebrother!"
"....sis?"
Alistair reappeared, covered in dust and disheveled, but alive. He seemed to smell of ozone.
