They were back in the grand hall, grand if you're a Viking in the 3rd century. Everyone gathered around the barristers along the top of the hall and on the ground floor, there was a cordoned-off area in the centre of the room. Artemis led Raven to the centre of the room. A thick maritime rope separated Raven from the rest of the crowd. She was not alone in the centre. In front of her, Lucifer and Angelica stood beside each other, about 3 metres away from each other. Angelica was grinning at the Ash coloured-haired girl while Lucifer's facial expression resembled a blunt corkscrew. The entire time, the room was bustling with cheer and howls of encouragement.

Artemis lifted his walking stick into the air and the entire room fell silent.
