Immediately recognizing Neo Zeon's movements, Asherah deploys the Nahel Argama to have a perfect shot at their fleet with the Nahel Argama's primary beam cannon. Still keeping half of the fleet out of Neo Zeon's sight, Asherah continues to hold until as many of their troops are in her line of fire.

>Asherah: Begin charging sequence. (All of these lights in space...if I do this, will all of them just vanish? No...even if they vanish now, all of them can return one day. In a better, more gentle world when mankind can finally find peace together...that is why...that is why...!)
>AEUG Officer: Neo Zeon is approaching capable firing positions! What are your orde-
>Asherah: Draw them in closer!

Using Judau and the others to lure Neo Zeon closer into the Nahel Argama's firing line, Asherah finally gives the authorization for the vessels Hyper Mega Particle Cannon to be fired. In one blinding flash of absolute power and destruction, over 30 Neo Zeon Mobile Suits are annihilated, along with Yuri Kellerne's Gwadan being fatally damaged.

>Yuri Kellerne: H-how did we run straight into that?! All ships, continue advance! Destroy that new AEUG warship!

[Dana, Arius, Bone, Barry, Runen have died in battle]
[AEUG losses: 4%]
[Neo Zeon losses: 35%]

Feeling the tide of souls departed from their moral coil floating by her, Asherah feels a shift in her perception as she finds transparent, spiritual tendrils multiplying and sifting through the deceased of Neo Zeon's fallen, ravenously seeking to envelop and absorb the departing souls.

[Asherah is eligible for +2 level up to all stats on next level up]

>AEUG Officer: Brilliant shot! Those Neo Zeons are...you ok?

Witnessing a physical manifestation of her spirits endless desire to grow, a shiver runs down the young girls spine as she unsure of allowing herself to give into such a sensation or to resist it.

>How will Asherah conduct herself for her next level up?
