Marta was very much alive, and definitely heard him calling for her. It had been a while since she'd heard the voice of another person, it was like music to her ears! With a smile, she looked down to her knight. He'd come to rescue her! He slayed the mighty beast! This would be happily ever after!

Wait a second... Marta shook her head sharply, overcoming the fairy-tale-persona that kept trying to slide in and keep her helpless. (She'd become quite good at it at this point. Plenty of practice.) There was something wrong here - well, wrong in Marta's mind. Nothing about this situation was as important as one very crucial fact:

"You're not Emil!" She pointed out the obvious, with a bit of a huff.

How rude! Marta's expression turned indignant. She stood up straight.

"I've been trying!" she protested angrily, "I can't get down on my own, otherwise I wouldn't still be up here!"

She paused, just long enough to take a deep breath and calm herself down a little. Then she went on, a lot nicer this time, "I think whatever is trying to make me act like a stupid princess out of a storybook is keeping me up here, too." A way to force her into helplessness. Stupid, stupid Plane...! "So... can you come get me? Please?"
