As a group of Fire Force members entered the Oasis, the woman told Shinra Kusakabe to protect the forest through the Adolla Link. Shortly after during Shinra's fight against Tempe, the woman told him again to protect the forest. Needing strength to defeat Tempeh, Shinra called out to the woman to receive Divine Protection, leading to her saying she cannot summon enough power to give to him. As Shinra continued to plead, she said she could give him Divine Protection for only one second, to which he accepted. Wondering what Shinra could do with only one second, the woman explained that she was the same as Shinra, and stated the purpose of the Preacher was to engulf the world in fire.
