Selene decided she was going to go to her apartment, but she realized after a few minutes that she wasn't sure where exactly in the city she was, and she wanted to go back home and speak to her friend Ela.
Selene had taken it, hidden it in her belt, under her blouse, and she had been steeling herself to finally attack me. I guess she was sort of crazed with anger.
Selene is considered the heavenly aspect, Artemis is considered the "earthly" aspect who went among people, and Hecate (an underworld goddess of the moon and witchcraft) is considered the "underworld" or "dark" aspect of the moon where I believe Naoko got the idea for Nehelenia.

 Religion of Comic Book Characters (Religion | Comics)
It is no coincidence that some of the world's most popular and critically acclaimed comic book writers are the writers who have written the most comic book stories about overt religious themes and openly religious characters.
Comic book writers notable for their regular and insightful use of religious themes in their stories include writers who are Christian, Jewish, Hindu, agnostic, atheist, etc. These writers differ in their religious beliefs and backgrounds, but they are united in their desire to write more realistic, more human, more meaningful stories.
One of the few places in mainstream comics where a large number of major superheroes have been explicitly identified as religious was in Marvel's Infinity Crusade #1 (June 1993).

As Selene investigates, she discovers that not only is Michael an instrumental part of a new Lycan plan for final revenge against the vampires, but that the plan has tendrils that reach all the way into her own vampire clan.
Even Selene's rival, the vampiress Erika, gets some nice moments that while certainly plot-driven are at least consistent with the way her character is portrayed.
