Ranar could not scream or even move past saying the word "Ric." She prayed and hoped that Ric would hear her, but even if he could, there was nothing he could do. She knew that.
As the entity reached out to grab her, someone suddenly pulled her hand, and that was when she noticed herself being dragged toward Ric. At that same moment, Annalise raised her head and saw something she could not quite place. It was only a blurry image of a tall figure, and in the next moment, it grabbed Ranar, pulling her away and disappearing along with Ric, who was still holding onto her.
"Ranar!!!" she screamed, completely lost, terrified, and confused. Just as she was about to scream for the guards, she turned her head and saw the child appearing inside the projection on the battlefield.
Right between Damon and Emilia.
