| Summary | "Afterwards" by Kathlyn Rhodes is a work of fiction that appears to have been written in the early 20th century. The narrative revolves around the intense and tragic experiences of Dr. Anstice and Hilda Ryder, who find themselves imprisoned in a temple, facing imminent death at dawn due to the actions of hostile priests. The story initiates with a palpable tension, exploring themes of love, sacrifice, and the psychological trauma associated with their fate. At the start of the book, the emotional stakes are immediately high, as Hilda Ryder questions Dr. Anstice about their impending death. As they grapple with their dire situation, a bond forms between them, revealing their differing responses to fear and hopelessness. Anstice makes a promise to spare Hilda from the horrors of death should it come to that, showcasing the complex dynamics of their relationship. The opening sets the stage for a traumatic event that changes the course of their lives and introduces themes of guilt, responsibility, and the moral complexities of life and death.
