Yes, Very New Plans

She’s surprised when she wakes up. Mostly because she hadn't expected to ever wake up again. Her heart beats in her chest, but it feels normal, there’s no rumbling sensation in her chest like the fragile skin is about to split. She moves a hand to her chest and she feels the skin is repaired, fully. Not the temporary weak repairs she had before, this is a full regeneration. Healing an injury like hers is far beyond the power she possessed, hell she can't imagine anyone capable of healing to that degree, maybe Emeria.

Olivia slips her legs off the bed, she feels better than she has in some time. She isn't dead, she was healed, it’s a miracle and she hates it.

She wants to be dead, she wants to be with Ursa, she feels tears drip down her cheeks and then a soft hand reaches out and wipes away the tears and she glances at the source of the hand to see an effeminate being, with green hair in elaborate pigtails and large pink hued eyes. Olivia tenses.

"did you think the gods did not protect those who had pledged themselves?" Ariel asks and Olivia hesitates before responding.

"You saved me... You healed me, but... why? You didn't stop him from torturing me, you let Ursa die!" she yells and Ariel just stares at her as she screams accusations at him, until breaking down into full on sobbing.

"Why would you only help me now?" she sobs and Ariel responds shortly.

"I couldn't. Not directly anyway, but I did help indirectly," he says and then holds out his hand, from his hand dangles a necklace with a pendant on it. In the center of the pendant is a glass bead and inside the glass bead something swirls, "do you know what this is?"

Olivia freezes looking at it, "It's a Phylactery... Accursed things, but..." she studies the pendant for a bit, "the pendant it's... in the shape of... your symbol lord Ariel... Why do you have a phylactery?" she asks, sounding concerned.

"It's a poor soldier who is unwilling to use any weapon, including those of the enemy to perform their duty," Ariel responds, "I made this and I have as you can see already filled it with a soul, can you guess who's?" Ariel asks and realization dawns immediately on Olivia.

"Ur... Ursa?" she asks and Ariel nods.

"You can't die yet, you still have a job to do and this is your incentive, the other incentive is that your job is to do exactly what you already want to do. I want you to hurt Doom, not directly, you'd never stand a chance, but with this," he says as he places the phylactery into her hand, "you can hurt him where it really hurts and you can get Ursa back all in one go. You remember his Amazonian friend, Kasi of the Dragon Tribe... I've set it up so that all you have to do is get this phylactery into contact with her and Ursa will be revived in her place. She'll be killed and you'll have Ursa back and Doom will have lost a very powerful resource... One he hadn't even really recognized," Ariel mutters the last bit under his breath and then he smiles at Olivia.

"Will you do this for me?" he asks and then hesitates, "no will you do this for your god and for Ursa?" he corrects and Olivia hesitates and then nods.

"I will... I'll do anything to have Ursa back," she admits and Ariel smiles.

"That's what I want to hear... There's... Something happening right now, sit tight. Your chance will come soon. I have already ensured it. Stay in this area, you'll be able to live here fairly safely for a while and I'll warn you when the time is close," he says and then pats her cheek, "you are a loyal and beloved servant and we knew we could count on you," he tells her and then vanishes and Olivia is left holding the phylactery and she holds it tight against her chest.

"Ursa... I'll bring you back, we'll be back together soon, just wait..." she whispers.
