[color=lightsteelblue]The rest of the afternoon proved to be entertaining and yet dreadful. The appearance of the narcissistic bastard had caused her temporary entertainment. She had managed to remain above the waiting sorrow. Though she hated the muzzle, she had been glad nobody had seen or heard her giggles. The humor from Helio only proved that there were fragments of him in there. She wished she could reach him, but she knew it would be near impossible. She refused to give up on him though. This was her problem to fix. The fruits of her betrayal had given her scars inside she knew might never heal. Artemis took several deep breaths. Now she sat in the Town Hall dungeon and was sitting in a tub of water. The conditions of the dungeon were disgusting and she wished to never see the likes of it again. Her clothing was laying on her dirty cot and within reach if she needed them fast. Her tail was half submerged in the water which was refreshing, while the tip of it was out. She felt humiliated, but reminded herself she’d been through worse. 

Thankfully it seemed Risa and Kyran had escaped. What she had found interesting was the tension between Umber and Azriel. She hadn’t let her thoughts wander in case that dumbass demon had been nearby. The bitch’s flirting with Helio made her roll her eyes and internally vomit. She had managed daggers in her eyes and remained silent otherwise; she wasn’t giving her the satisfaction. Her gaze had flickered from Umber breaking one of the fairy’s wings and back to Azriel and was sure she knew a way to return the favor. Artemis refrained from smiling in case anyone noticed and kept a neutral expression upon her face. 

She sighed as she adjusted her position and wished she could shove the demon into a small ass cage and force it to sit in the sunlight. One way or another, growing up, she had been caged, be it physically or mentally. She was tired of it. There was one person to blame for this and she would be damned if she didn’t help bring him down. Artemis knew she had to bide her time in order to free herself. What she had observed from Helio was he was narcissistic, unpredictable, moody, sadistic, and also exceedingly cocky. She was aware he knew of her strengths and the muzzle had only stopped one of them. She wanted to hum to herself, but it had only caused her to nearly be tortured. That wouldn’t go over too well, not after enduring a near decade of torture and abuse by that piece of shit Dark Elf. 

Instead, she began envisioning the most excruciating ways of revenge if she managed to reach her goal. The rebels were in River Port; she wasn’t far from there. She knew it would be wiser to go down into the water, but that would be a cowardly, selfish move and she didn’t want to be that person anymore. It was logical though. She wanted to protect Risa and Kryan, help the rebellion, and take Aklenroth down. It was the only thing keeping her from going ballistic at the moment. Artemis took several more deep breaths to calm herself. All she needed was patience and she wasn’t a patient person; so to her it was like listening to Terneus talk for hours. 

Besides, was her family alive still? Did they even [i]care[/i]? Had her kingdom crumpled, or were they prospering? She felt intense homesickness unlike before. She missed her seashell bed and the sea. Swimming for hours at dusk and dawn with nothing but the stars and moons to stare down and watch her. To swim with Orion, Aqua, and Nedia. Artemis swallowed and took a deeper breath. She had to hang on in order for them all. [/color]
