Bab 214: The main character

Some heart-rending screams and screams began to resound around, loud growls and the hollow ringing of steel.

Artemis wished with the last hope that it was Raphael. She prayed about it in her head. She also prayed to stay alive. No matter how loud Ivrim's words sounded in her head that she had to sacrifice herself, she still didn't want to die. She wanted to live.

Somewhere in the distance, she heard Lillian's voice, she was shouting something that was difficult to make out in this merging mass of different voices and intonations. But Artemis could make out her anger and the corners of her lips lifted with a smile, with a tiny hope.

- Raphael. - She was almost crying when she screamed his name at the top of her voice, breaking into wheezes.

She hoped he would hear her, because he always heard her whenever she called. Her and Thea.
