Well, take it as me not knowing the ins and outs of the Balancers of Souls, but with Shifang I am under the impression that in order for Shifang to be activated, one must be near death in the sense that their demise is rapidly approaching, to which Naoko doesn't fulfill the prerequisite. She's tired yes, but I don't think a simple heat wave that is constantly emanating from Touru would be enough to down a spritual being that is on the level of the current guards of the Soul King, at least not on it's own. What I can say is that with some more physical damage, Naoko would probably be in that area, so it'll happen soon, very soon in fact. (I will admit, I am getting a tad sick of lightning plinking off Touru's shiny (charred?) armour myself, Shifang should change that)

Another reason I didn't wanna release is that I did want to exhaust the possibilities I had with what is basically a lightning sprite and I think I've done that. I wanted to try and use all my options before going with the thing that'll most likely kill my character y'know.

Anyway, that's my reason, if I'm wrong, I am sure that you and Hellion will heartily guffaw at my misunderstanding.
