It's going to start with Wynn's POV then end with mine.
Wynn's Point of View, part 3
Growling, I ripped my hands out of the chests of the androids I had stabbed before they could lock me into place. Leaping into a backflip, I spread out my senses to try and find where the real Wolfgang and Cathal were hiding.
"You used a lot of your strength in that," Dragon stated. "Are you okay? You're...weaving."
"I'll be fine," I replied. "You?"
"Oh short of being electrocuted with every small movement I make," Dragon replied. "I'm perfectly FINE."
"Stay still," I replied. "I'm going to lift you out."
"If you overdraw your magic well--"
"I know the dangers," I replied. "I saw what it nearly did to you twenty-five years ago during the Nabikchan-Rianales war on Kuokuo in the Degobah [+1] system."
"You were in that war?"
"So was Lex..."
"Excuse me?" Dragon asked, lifting an eyebrow.
"Never mind," I replied. Grabbing at the scraps of what was left of my magical powers, I lifted Dragon out of the harness she was in. Just as she was cleared, I collapsed into darkness.

Sensing something flying at me from the right, I crouched over Wynn's body as a scythe flew over my head. Reaching out to the moisture in the air, I sensed where the real Wolfgang and Cathal were hiding. With a twisted smile, I thickened the moisture in the air around their heads so that they slowly drowned.
Returning my attention to Wynn, I continued to feel for a pulse while my worry grew more intense with the passing moment. If she was dead; there was no way to bring her back to life. When a magic well is depleted, no amount of healing can fix it.
