Badriyyah insists, and you reluctantly permit her to visit Lumera's study.
When they meet, Lumera cradles her books, appearing physically frail yet utterly unintimidated. She listens quietly to Badriyyah's entire speech before posing the same penetrating questions you couldn't answer... Knowing Badriyyah's limited education...
She quickly falters before these razor-sharp inquiries, just as you did. Rising in humiliated fury, she slices her palm... Her preparedness reveals this confrontation was always her true intent. You realize too late...
As magical energies subside, the otherworldly horror lies bound and dying. Lumera crouches curiously before it, tentatively touching its suppurating skin, asking - what color is its blood? Is its physical form truly substantive? How does its anatomy differ from humans? How can it traverse dimensional barriers without being torn apart?... She investigates with scholarly enthusiasm while the entity's unnatural binding creates a devastating backlash that overwhelms Badriyyah, who has already lost this battle of wills.

Result:
Amid Badriyyah's wild cackling, Lumera disappears down the creature's maw. "What's inside its stomach? Who the fuck knows - go look for yourself!" Badriyyah stands triumphant. No one questions the Cultic God's teachings anymore - how perfect! What a wonderful demonstration! As the creature's time in our realm ends, it departs, but the parts it couldn't digest - that purest magic, that inconvenient brilliance - are absorbed into Badriyyah.
She even gains inspiration from the encounter, sketching a diagram and thrusting it into your hands. "There, we're even now. Stop looking so sour."
