The brilliant light that travelled in an expansive arc had a unique effect as it through an individual with a powerful pushing effect that wasn't meant to stagger or make them fall.
Peculiar oddities would gush out of their bodies, in a hazy form, some looking like dark images in the likeness of the individual who had been stuck by the light!
This truly looked like... a purging.
The purging of impure entities!
Thousands of these dark and ugly beings rose from the thousands of people as the light struck them, these images dissipating into black particles that were lost forever!
It was a wondrous scene, especially when one looked at its effect on those that were afflicted with the ailment and frenzy as the moment the bright arc passed through them, a screech was heard as dark purple mist spilled from their bodies and rose up before it burned!
