Beyza follows because she believes in Ghaul, believes in Anaxarete, and believes in the healing power of fire. Although she truthfully has no desire to see anyone harmed, it would be easy enough for the band of defenders to stand aside and allow the fire to purge their land and remake it anew.
Some naivety remains in her and she easily believes they cannot be there to destroy lives - just the lands.
They are met with resistance - who is to say Beyza would not resist had she been in their places? They simply do not understand but surely they would leave if they did.
Panic that is not hers leeches into her mind for a moment but this young mare is bolstered by the flames and shadows as they surge and rise. Beyza does not linger to join the fray but rises above it on large, crystalline wings and the electricity in the air builds as she ascends - arcs and flashes of it licking all across her skin and feathers. The panic ebbs as she rises higher and she feels her excitement rush in and filling up the spaces it left.
Before long, lightning replaces the small flickers and bolts of it shoot from her to collide with the barrier protecting Nerine. Much of her magic has returned to her, but perhaps a few stray bolts sneak out in other directions as she silently directs all she can into bringing the barrier down and helping spark new fires down below.
