"Goddess you have to run..." said a woman as she was holding her bleeding side in pain, while leaning against a tree.
"NO!" Shouted Artemis staring at her last remaining child that was barely clinging onto life.
Both of them then heard a loud roar from Antares who was slowly catching up to them, with his minions following him.
"Please goddess... get to Orario and ask for help.. don't let our sacrifice be in vain... and please find your Orion and find love along with happiness" she said forcing herself to her feet and held her spear out.
Artemis looked down and let tears run down her face before she turned and fled, racing to Orario while carrying her arrow.
"Thank you..." she said not taking her eyes off the monsters as she heared her goddess run away "now... I'm gonna take as many of you with me as I can". She then let out a scream and charged into the fray.
For Artemis she ran through a clearing and just reached the next tree line, when her heart exploded in pain as she felt her final child die.
"No...." said Artemis as tears ran down her face, but forced the pain down and continued to run, heading towards Orario to get help killing this monster and avenge her Familia.

"I still can't believe you found 4 jackbirds on floor 1.." said Lily staring at Bell who's luck kicked in on that floor and allowed him to kill said monsters with his new bow.
"Hehe... I didn't even know what they were until you told me" said Bell.
"Still, that's 4 million valis in one day... we technically could've just gone home after that" said Welf.
"Well that would've made some sense, but we also have to get as much experience as possible... also Bell are you sure the eggs are secure in your bag?" Asked Lily.
"Mhm" he said, he hated lying but he didn't want to tell them about his infinity purse yet... that thing alone could start a war, hence why he's extremely careful with it and only put the eggs in it, when neither Welf or Lily were looking.
All three of them continued to walk for a little while longer, before they finally arrived at the 13th floor.
"Wow.. so these are the middle floors" said Bell looking at the 13th floor while Welf and Lily were both behind him, looking as well. It was even more of a cave down here, with the walls and light being darker and the air just felt different from the upper floors.
"Yes, things are a lot more dangerous down here and monsters spawn more frequently" said Lily who then pulled out a map she managed to snag off a drunk adventurer "I have a lay out of the 13-14th floor so we should be fine for a while until we eventually go deeper. But I think it'd be smarter to stay on the 13th until we are all used to it".
"Yeah I have to agree with Lil bit here, Hephaestus and Tsubaki mentioned that these floors have extremely high casualty rates for adventurers who finally make it this deep" said Welf.
"That reminds me of what Ms Ryuu said, she told me that the dungeon waits till we are at our weakest until it shows its true fangs" said Bell.
They were about to continue but they then heard a noise and they all turned and saw a group of white rabbits staring at them.
"...Bell I didn't know you had family down here" said Welf staring at the monsters.
"I-I'm not related to them!!".
The Almiraj's eyes glowed before they all pulled out tiny axes and charged.
"Bell please calm down" said Lily.
