If all of Neve's damage had gone through, then Aphria only had 40% of her HP left.
That would certainly line up with the fact that she went into her second phase, as indicated by the change in her sword.
Now, the one blade Aphria wielded glowed so brightly it was almost blinding.
At the same time, Neve only had 260 mana left.
Neve had grown over the course of the journey, gaining a lot of stats, but she guessed she still didn't have enough to run around and drag this fight out until she could get Erin back into it. No, she'd likely be forced to use {Flash Shielding} to defend herself from here until the end of the battle.
{Flash Shielding} consumed 25 MP per cast. Neve would have to spend at least 20 MP casting the two {Fireballs} needed to finish this, assuming she didn't miss. This meant that, optimistically, Neve could cast {Flash Shielding} around 9 or 10 times, if she got some more time to recharge more mana.
