Uriel was amazed at the power that was held by that single gem. To control such a magnificent beast, they were dangerous and powerful, yes, but they would be useful in their incursions and frontal attacks later in the war. And this wraith would have her brother back. It was quite a win win situation from the general's point of view. But from his personal point of view, that beast would cause too many civilian casualties. His body jolted when the beast screamed again, he was lost in his own thoughts and he has somewhat lowered his guard. He then looked back at the prince who had surprisingly denied placing the gem on the beast.

As expected, the wraith was angry at the suggestion of the prince. After all, what kind of sister wanted to kill her own brother? But the general knew that the prince knew her pain, or at least felt something for her. But the prince's decision seemed final and he seemed to be intent on killing the beast. But he had no remaining energy left and so the prince was reduced to kneeling. 

The wraith wanted to take something from Asher. Something that he loves. Uriel could see that small gesture of looking at the angel. Livia shot forward, towards Asher. Uriel raised his sword and shield when she suddenly changed direction. Towards the angel. Perhaps he should've taken what Asher did seriously. He had not debt to pay to the angel. So he was not obligated to protect her. Yet the prince's mutter reached the general's ears.

[color=A9A9A9]"Do not even think of touching the princess, wraith!"[/color] He practically ordered, his voice clear, like how he commands his troops. But Uriel knew that she wouldn't even listen. He pointed his sword at the charging wraith. Darkness was still faster than her. Several spheres of darkness shot out to her, aiming to hit her and there would be a small explosion upon impact. It wouldn't knock her out or anything but it should stop her in her tracks or even make her fly to the other direction. Anything to get her away from the angel.

He heard the prince continue, the words aimed directly at the princess it seems, to get her going again. The princess shot something back at Asher. Their exchange meant nothing to change Uriel's decisions. He looked at the prince and once he was sure that he wouldn't be attacked, he charged straight at Octavia side, acting as a wall between her and the wraith. His priorities were all out of whack. Defending an angel first then calming down the wraith second perhaps? Well hopefully he could hold up to one of those. He wasn't all that good when it came to convincing other people but still... hurting another Child of Darkness really wouldn't be quite a good deal.

Hopefully, Asher would manage to convince Octavia to continue fighting. Uriel needed at least some small help with defeating Livia if it came to that. He heard Octavia wallow in self-pity. The general let out a hollow chuckle, indicating the beginning of a joke at the wrong time perhaps?[color=A9A9A9] "Then why not do something likeable? Like perhaps helping me with fighting?"[/color] He suggested jokingly. He knew that it wasn't time for that but he just couldn't resist. Even a serious soldier like him tends to have these kinds of bouts.
