The flower that she saw revived her, healing her from illness in the process. It has taken root deep within her and the flower has bloom inside her right eye. It gave Zero the power of an Intoner. Intoners possess enhanced magic capabilities through the manipulation of magic via Songs. It is interesting to note that “The Power of Songs” uses energy from the flower and thus is fundamentally different from “normal” magic.
This ability allows them to enter “Intoner Mode”: they become almost invulnerable to all forms of damage, their speed, reflexes, and power are also greatly augmented. However, it would seem that this ability puts a strain on the user’s body as they are not able to stay in this mode for longer than a minute.
Much more concerning is the ability to summon Watcher. They are a mysterious group of otherworldly beings, sometimes refers as Grotesqueries, Angels, Nameless, Daemons, or erroneously Gods. They were created as the servants and agents of God, being their instruments in destroying humanity.
Lastly, Intoners have incredible healing capabilities and can come back from the dead (or reanimate other beings, e.g. the undead). They can also reflect attacks and protect themselves using “Song Shield”.
In the following 8 months, Zero slowly learns more about her new abilities. However, she also realizes the true purpose of the Flower: it’s a parasite that slowly consumes her body and her mind, making her a puppet. Once she will be completely taken over, it will unleash “World Devastation”. She became a tool of destruction through which the flower sought to further its ambition of destroying humanity.

Of course, Zero isn’t very fond of this possible outcome and tries to remove the flower which had become attached to her heart. She does this by stabbing herself in the heart with her sword. The flower, sensing Zero's hostility towards it, created five young intoners, copies of Zero, each receiving a fragment of Zero's powers. All five of them receive false memories to make their existence more believable. It is safe to assume that the Flower absorbed the memories of the five girls inside the prison’s cell and used those as the basis for the Intoners. Each one of them also inherits a part of Zero’s personality (it is unclear if Zero loses those traits or they are copied). Physically, they are all based on women Zero encountered during her life.
She immediately tries to kill them while they are still frail and defenseless. However, One protects her sisters and screams “NO! You traitor!” before guiding them toward safety. Zero, greatly weakened by her “suicide attempt”, is left unable to move. She swears to kill the Intoners and to rid the world of the Flower’s existence.
In the following months, the intoners travel aimlessly as a sort of wandering superhero band. But upon seeing the evil and cruelty the Lords had inflicted upon the people the Intoners set out to claim Midgard for themselves. What ensued was a yearlong conflict as the Intoners fought and killed the Lords of the Lands and became worshipped by the people as their great saviors.?
