Nimona escapes by becoming a fire-breathing monster AND a small girl.

Knowing that at least one person that he loves will die when Nimona and Goldenloin fight, Blackheart uses the green energy to hamper Nimona's power and rescues her small-child manifestation. As she angrily refuses to leave her monstrous self, Blackheart carries Goldenloin to safety before a huge explosion. As he sits by Goldenloin's sickbed Nimona reveals herself, then slips away.
