The more she dealt with her problems alone, the worse they became. The green electrical discharges became more pronounced to the point of inteferring with her work and daily life. She decided that she couldn't just simply ignore this problem any further and she took matters into her own hands. Tirelessly, she worked on a machine that would be able to tell her exactly what was wrong with her body. It took a couple of weeks to build, but when she finally had it all set up and operational, she performed a series of tests on herself. What came as a result of these tests was one answer:
Her body was entirely composed of data. The green electrical discharges was because her body was slowly destabilizing itself and served as a warning. For all this time, she had been essentially living a lie. She was confused, she was frustrated, and she was feeling hurt and upset. And so, Diana reverted back to who she used to be which blew all of the improvement she made with opening up to others out of the water. She wouldn't come out of her house, let alone her room and her lab. This behavior went on for months, and despite her parents' pleas for her to tell them what was wrong, she didn't want to burden them with what she found out. Even when Olivia asked her to open up to her, she refused since she felt like this problem was something that she had to deal with by herself.
As Diana struggled to be the person she was before her discovery, there were reports of Epyaxa exhibiting changes in the atmosphere as well as on the ground itself. However, it seemed like there was a growing connection in between Diana and what Epyaxa was going through. The more Epyaxa destabilized, the frequency of the discharges increased. As downtrodden as Diana was, there was a curiosity that needed to be sated. She went back into the machine and customized it to give her even more answers than she had beforehand. As it turned out, she was the conduit of Epyaxa and was the one who could help stabilize the planet, as well as her own body. And so, when the problems in both Epyaxa and herself didn't stop, she decided to do the one thing she knew would work - sacrificing herself for her world. Even though she didn't want to go, she knew it had to be done.
After she made her amends with her parents and Olivia, she said she'd be fine with where she was going and went off to the exact middle of the planet. She jumped into the opening while saying her goodbyes and separated until there was nothing left of her. With her noble sacrifice, Epyaxa stabilized, but she didn't show any signs of returning herself. It turned out that the planet needed her to realign itself and she stayed with it to piece the broken areas back together. And thus, the girl known as Diana Ethelbert was forever gone.
... Well, for a while.
When Diana turned eighteen, her work with Epyaxa was done and she was granted a new lease on her life. She reappeared on the steps of her parents' mansion with a new look on life and was happy to be back. She apologized for her behavior previously and was welcomed back with warm arms. The people of Epyaxa had figured out what she had done to save the world and she was given the title "Avatar of Epyaxa" and was regarded as a hero, even with her strange powers.
