"Wait! You cannot do this to me!" He meant to shout, but the words cout as nothing more than a ragged groan of pain.

"Tear them from his mind, thread by cursed thread, until not a single trace of dark magic remains. Do not test my patience further, you spawn of darkness." Then, she vanished into the night.
