Calling it – she’s gonna pull Sedjet out with her and the monster is going to implode/invert back into him in a spectacular eldritch black bloodsplosion. This is going to be the most metal thing in the entire comic so far.
Some people might call this a deus ex machina. They’d be wrong, of course. The supernatural has been a part of this since the beginning, and this isn’t a fantasy kitchen sink situation like the Anita Blake: Vampire Hunter books where literally everything is real and was somehow hidden for millennia, or even the better written Kitty Norville series where a lot of things are real but the things that ARE are skeptical of anything they haven’t seen personally. Basically, this comic has been very well written all along and I love it.
So, this Air’asha doesn’t seem like a bad deity, even if he looks like a demonic centipede. He gave lives fire, and likely had a hand in breaking them out of the idol to start with. So, he’s likely miffed that the idol is coming back together and so, he’s quite willing to help King take back her will, break her chains once again. 😮 He didn’t ask for any sacrifice of her, only that she takes it back. Maybe he wants to see how strong her will of being herself is?
Also, it looks like that deity is wounded. I theorize that it got wounded by the black idol when he gave mortals fire and freedom. I’m pretty sure the idol would have put up quite a fight …

If one is to be sovereign, the must prove they have the will and strength to rule themselves before they can rule anything else.

This comic must’ve been named “How to turn a hardcore horror into a princess show 101”.
