#Chapter6
PRAGMA
Lyra woke up when she heard women murmuring something behind her, she could feel a soft mattress below her but the room smells of lavender and Jasmine indicating that she is not in her room. She didn't move yet, she remained still listening as the two woman spoke beside her.
/"The woman said that the young lady must be offered to the beast or else this city would fall./" Said the younger woman, Lyra became even more nervous when she heard about it.
/"I felt pity for the young lady. She's too young to die and I'm sure that she will die in pain and not in peace...that beast would surely eat her alive and while./" Cold sweat breaks out of Lyra's body, what does they mean by that? She thought... She keep on thinking as to what beast will they offer her and why her? Above all people why her?
/"She will be brought there tomorrow, when the moon turns red they say./"
