Artemis tilted her head to the side in her strange dream world, listening to the hollow sound of her elder sister’s voice. She already knew that Amata was lost—she couldn’t find her, and she did not need the healer to tell her that. Her older sister sounded so sad, and Artemis wanted so desperately to be with her, to comfort her when she sounded so sad, but she could not find her no matter how hard she looked. The strange, faded world she had found herself in did not seem to have a definitive shape and therefore, she did not truly know where to look for her older sister, but she was trying so hard to get to her and she did not know what to do.
Hearing the pleading tone of the next words brought a surge of frustration up from the pit of her stomach. What did Amata mean by saying that all she needed to do was wake up? Artemis was awake! She just couldn’t find anybody! It was so frustrating for her to feel so lost and confused and alone, and to hear someone she loved calling to her when she could not find them was distressing. “Amata, I don’t know where you are!” she shouted into the distance, her own voice sounding so far away to her own ears.
With a huff of frustration, the silver girl dropped to the ground of this strange place, crossing her legs over one another with her face in her hands. She lowered one away from her cheek, pressing it to the earth below her, but it did not feel right. There was something wrong with the way the ground felt under her fingertips, and once more she found herself getting angry that she did not know where she was or why she was there, and she certainly did not know how to leave.
