1. Inner Reserve (potion, used immediately)

Yes, this potion was among the most dangerous; now, before the crucial final, receiving a debuff that would prevent her from wielding Apophis... But the knight will accept any outcome and will rely on victory and nothing else.

Although, it would have been better not to give the Thief the Hours of Kumari for this purpose... But still, yes, an inner appeal at such a crucial moment is not out of place and is spoken. And then the potion is consumed: with feeling and in one gulp, like a portion of precious alcohol, a potion of truth, showing everything to everyone.
