Yes, Prim dies in the Hunger Games when the second wave bombs are dropped, killing Prim in the process.
Prim Everdeen was Katniss’ younger sister who met her demise when the second wave of bombs exploded, killing Prim and other medics and intensely burning Katniss Everdeen. Prim’s death affected Katniss so much that she lost her voice temporarily for a few days.
Who is Prim in the Hunger Games?
Prim is a kind-hearted girl many have described as gentle, tender-hearted, and loving. In several respects, she is exactly opposite to her elder sister, Katniss. Although Katniss is tough, self-reliant, and proficient at hunting and survival, the delicate Prim pays attention to mending.
Prim has a natural talent for medicine and nursing, and she works as a healer in District 12, where she helps tend to the sick and injured.
The story begins when Prim's name is chosen as the female tribute for District 12 in the annual Hunger Games, a brutal televised competition where young representatives from each district fight to the death. Nevertheless, Katniss is not ready to give her life and watch her sister perish in the Hunger Games. This decision will be a precursor to the happenings in the trilogy.
The importance of Prim’s character is retained as she affects Katniss’ story. While not giving too much away, Prim’s character is crucial to the themes of sacrificing oneself, surviving, and the aftermaths of a dystopia portrayed in “The Hunger Games.”
