Well a Participial phrase is a phrase made up of a participle with its modifiers, such as adverbs, and objects or complements. So I think the answer is annex?
Really? Was the annex screaming?
OH haha I thought of objects and I thought of Annex. Its her.
Yes, the participle modifies "her."
Thank you so much.
