A heartache intensified, perhaps, by Lash's own mixed feelings. Unlike Zetta, she didn't have an excuse to run into about what she would do if the Overlord was repodded...rebooked, or simply stopped moving. In fact he might have felt that. That ping of worry every time she saw his figure on the floor and the whole song and dance that repeated itself when that happened - from shaking to make sure he was alive to his memory losses. It...wasn't a worry that Zetta's powers weren't powerful, on the contrary.

It was a worry she was powerless to do anything. Science could only do so much, after all.
