[ It's a form of despair that's very much a physical ache in her chest. She only felt like this twice - a little village lost in a fog of toxic gas, Steve's plane exploding in the sky above an airfield.
Earth has suffered greatly, many have died, much has changed and there is a moment in which Diana feels like her heart is sinking. It's not that she feels inferior now without her powers - humans can and have changed the world for the better and the worse.

It all reaches a point of climax outside her simple safe house, a surge of anger and despair that seems to do something, to shift something in her - something utterly new. A surge of something erupts, creating a circle around her.
All the objects outside her are pushed outside of that circle and she looks around her, lifting a hand to try and touch the changed air around her.
She also tries to relax, if only so she won't create another one by mistake, this one seems to be vibrating with energy. ]

It reminds her of the victory celebrations at the end of the Great War, of VE-Day years after. ]
