Vol 9: Artemis
In this volume of O’Connor’s series, we learn of Artemis’s life, from the moment she is conceived to several famous stories in Greek mythology. Zeus seduced the Greek maiden Leto, who bore twins Artemis and Apollo. As Hera was filled with jealousy, Leto’s childbirth was not easy. When Artemis first meets her celestial father, she asks him specifically for many things, including nymphs to be her attendants, wild lands filled with animals to hunt, and to never have to marry or know the touch of a man. In this way, Artemis became the maiden goddess of the wild hunt, and is also a goddess over difficult childbirth. Several other stories are presented, including Artemis and Niobe and Artemis and Orion.

Ezrest is still covered and plagued by the Valance Leech. The Knights Moralis are becoming wearied from the constant fighting, and we delve into the backstory of Knight Utowin. Then, inspiration strikes, and Coco comes up with a brilliant idea for battling the Leech involving a large swath of witches, some of the contraptions from the Silver Eve parade, and a lot of seals. But Knight Easthies is supremely against the plan based on his deeply held convictions and the rules that govern all witch-kind.
