Chapter 237: _Finding The Raven Witch
"Elder Luzia is dead, and most of the upper parts of the high tower are in ruin." Governor Daniel said with frustration, banging his right fist on a round table.
It was a final meeting to plan how to confront the raven witch while also cleansing her control over the human soldiers.
The meeting was held in a bright room at a different building, and gathered around the round table were I, Kaelos, Governor Daniel, two human leaders in the army—General Reyes and Colonel Fernando—and finally the male witch from the city’s gates.
Kaelos sat beside me with his arms folded in front of his chest, staring directly at Governor Daniel before he spoke. "And Leticia? What happened to her?"
The governor sighed heavily, brushing his right hand through his messy hair. He seemed to have aged by a decade because of the stress and I could tell he was trying to hide his emotions.
I could tell Luzia was an important woman in the city, beyond just being one of its leaders. When that butterfly, the last piece of her consciousness, landed on my forehead, I got a lot of insight.
I felt her emotions on a level deeper than any mere mind-reading spell. She fought hard. Protected her people fiercely until the very end.
The magic vines coiling around most of the skyscrapers in the city were her making. And now they were all withering away after her death.
"Leticia is alive, but barely." Governor Daniel revealed. "She’s responding to medical treatment but she’s currently unconscious. Luzia managed to chase out the raven witch’s possession before her death."
