Dieman predictably doesn't get very far, being stuck just beyond a password screen that he somehow randomly guessed through at an extra layer of security, calling for a "confirmation device" to be plugged into the computer or otherwise inserted into it. Matricardo's plan is marginally more successful, although most of the information contained within seems to be encrypted, coming out more as random noise than anything intelligible.

Upon analysis, which is itself stymied by the unnatural feeling of mortality brought upon by the magic, the power seems to only have been technically unholy by circumstance, and even then not in any particular way similar to the demons. It is better described as unclean, thrown together in a moment for a specific purpose without any real care for the component powers. The parts that are still unholy, in the sense of being opposed to an optimistic view of the world and more specifically an afterlife in general, were simply a majority share of the magic.
The thing doesn't respond, but seems to initiate another swing against something close to it... before that arm is blown off, accompanied by a metallic "pang", A small hole is visible for a split instant, before it expands, separating the upper half of the thing's upper arm from the rest of the appendage. From the stump, a sickly green smoke pours out, seeming to displease the thing even more with its toxic nature. At that moment, a figure is visible to Aya: the blackened silhouette that her servants were currently searching for.
For a moment, it reaches for the wound, whether to grasp it or to work it's abilities, but recoils before contact is even made, the outer shell of it's other hand visibly melting and dripping off onto the ground.
"YOU. I KILLED YOU. I KILLED YOU TWICE. HOW?"
The words are spoken with such an unfathomable level of rage that it shakes even Aya's heart. A grin, of a sort, can be seen to come across the area of the figure's head. Sounds come from it, overlapping into a voice.
"Death and I happen to have a mutual agreement. Kind of like your lady friend over there."
It responds to the thing.

Nuuk is just as the two remember, or basically the same as such. There's still that portal sitting in the air as well, although it seems to be oddly strained considering its rapid, if minor, fluctuations in size and shape.

The second Gargant has much the same effect as the first wherever it finds itself, although its presence seems to be being adapted to. Specifically, the armor of many of the soldiers is taking noticeably longer to break down under the sustained fire, and new weapons are being fielded: most notably, a sort of suit-wide cannon mechanism that fires a solid tungsten shell at speeds capable of boiling it on contact with matter, destroying or rendering inoperable large portions of the Gargant.
The purple shrooms find a few abandoned nuclear power plants, deactivated and with most of the radioactive materials missing. One operational one is found though, and it's even currently manned. No purpose-built warheads can be found for a huge while, though.
