Artemis,[1][2] sometimes spelled Artemus, was a nobleman[3][4] who appeared in Blood Omen 2. He had some sort of unknown business in the Sarafan Keep. He was valuable enough to be escorted by Sarafan Knights.[5]
Profile[]
In House of my Enemy (chapter), Kain was met by a woman in the Sarafan Keep who claimed to work for the Cabal,[6] she refused to open a Ward Gate until Kain had dealt with the nobleman Artemis, who had apparently caused enormous harm to the Cabal.[7] Kain found and killed Artemis and his Sarafan protectors before returning to the woman who opened the ward gate and walked off.
Notes[]
- Artemis' blue and gold cloak and his protection are suggestive of his wealth, backing up the woman claim he is "of some importance",[4] however her comments that Kain should "rip out his cruel heart" and "stop his lying tongue" may suggest a more personal motivation for having Artemis killed.[8]
- The room where Kain kills Artemis and his guard contains a mural of The Sarafan Lord's victory over Kain. It is possible to hear Artemis comment on the work if Kain does not kill him straight away.[9]
