-This chapter is written using Angelica's POV-
A dimly lit, dark place.
Even seeing a few meters ahead was difficult.
The earthquake from before caused us to separate, and the ceiling above us collapsed, effectively creating two groups separated by a wall.
Anna: "Give me a second, I'll destroy the rocks-"
Elizabeth: "Don't! According to the map, we are under the walls and the river. You could make things worse."
Since she was about to hit Gabriella, Anna had decided to move away and "help" Agatha and Lana.
Due to that, the three of them got stuck on the other side of the wall.
Anna: "Can't you use your magic to make a barrier and get out of there?"
Elizabeth: "I've been trying to cast, but all my barriers are down. I don't know what is happening."
Cassandra: "Oh... like what happened with the puppy back then."
Anna: "This is bad... should we call Miwen back?"
I thought about having this chapter and the last as a single one in the auxiliary volume since they don't progress the story forward, but they are too important to not include in the "main volumes".
At least in my opinion, considering that they justify Gabriella's behavior and future actions.
I also felt it showed a lot of both Angelica and Cassandra, and this exploration of their characters was important in
Still, I hope it was fun to read ^^.
