Chise, Lucy, and Isaac are also there, but still unconscious.
Elias destroys the metal core, revealing a core of blue light.
Perhaps this core contains all of the memories of Philomelas childhood.
Then he took his test subject and ran away, a betrayal Lizbeth could not have predicted.
Just as she was deemed inferior in her youth, she always saw Philomela as inferior to Adam.
At first Lizbeth does as shes told, but then pulls back and hesitates.
But shes proven wrong when a someonethreesomeonesarrive in the nick of time.
Chise, Lucy, and Isaac, flanked by Elias and Ruth, have come to rescue her.
This doesnt matter to Lizbeth; she says that the ritual that has started cannot be stopped.
But thats only if Philomela herselflets it continue.
Chise tells her that if shewishes, she can stop it right here and now.
She employs the tool Isaac brought, changing its form into a weapon suitable for destroying the ritual.
Imighthave startled my neighbors cheering this action!
No doubt Lizbeth will launch some kind of counterattack, but Im not concerned.
Her bitterness and resentment, and years of physical and psychological torture have amounted to nothing.
She has no chance against Chises love and kindness.
