determination

For her world, she chooses to sacrifice her life.

Every conformer has synchronization rates with the Innocence. When the synchro rate is low, the Innocence might not work properly. When the synchro rate reaches maximum, it might take effect and cause damage on the user, because of the burden the user has to bear with. Lenalee's synchro rate at most is 86%. When she forces a maximum synchronization, she coughs blood and hexagonal wrinkles appear all over her face and body.

While performing a full invocation, Lenalee is determined to sacrifice herself. She has assumed that when she lets herself wrapped by Eshi's gravity chains, her body is going to burn from the friction with air. After Eshi has been defeated, her Innocence rescues her from death. It covers Lenalee in a crystal. It moves without her will, because she's already unconscious. This is a strange phenomenone. Innocence normally doesn't protect its user (otherwise the defeated exorcists would have survived!!) However, Lenalee's do. The bookman analyzes that she might be the posessor of "Heart". But the most important thing is, even if Lenalee is badly injured plus her hair is burnt and cropped short, she is still alive! And she still has the possibility to recover her Innocence.
