Bimpe Character Analysis

A young Reaper. She’s in her mid-teens and is extremely tall. Like Màri, Bimpe is very enthusiastic about being a Reaper, but her age means that she’s a little more mature and has a better sense of the gravity of what’s happening. She’s old enough that Zélie asks her to stand and fight during the monarchy’s surprise attack on the sanctuary.

Chapter Twenty-Five Quotes

Do you accept these people as your own?

Will you use your strength to protect them at all cost?

The burden of her questions expands in my chest as I look to the Reapers gathered around Mâzeli. Bimpe watches with fingers pressed to her lips. Màri frantically waves her hand, almost immune to the gravity of the moment. Though I’ve only known them for a few hours, they already feel like blood. Like home. Being around them feels more right than anything has felt in years.
