LSJ Burst of Sunlight Question

This question arose during our latest game of V:tes. Say Beast and Sarah Gobler are in combat Beast hits Sarah for 8 Sarah plays Burst of Sunlight at minor. Does this cause Sarah to burn or can she choose to take the Agravated damage first since it's from a difirent source. Emile "We are an ape with a symbiotic relationship to a mushroom"

Number of sources has nothing to do with it; all the damage is resolved simultaneously, in the same strike resolution phase (unless Beast XOR Sarah have First Strike). Regular damage is handled before aggravated (per rulebook) so Sarah is wounded when the last point of agg is handled, and lacking a blood to burn to prevent destruction, burns. gomi -- Individually, I love you all with affection unspeakable; but, collectively, I look upon you with a disgust that amounts to absolute detestation. - Gilbert and Sullivan, 'Pirates of Penzance'
