The woman's question echoed in her ears as Emelia continued to stay shocked. She didn't understand how a citizen of this empire knew her mother. Like all, she knew her mother came from the other empire. But Emelia made her mind up. Even if the woman knew her mother, it didn't mean she would trust her immediately.
"Please answer my question first. How do you know her?" Emelia asked politely as she could sound. The woman touched her face and sighed out loud. From top to bottom, Emelia looked the exact copy of her mother. One thing that was different is the way she acts. How could she not recognize her one long lost friend?
"I am your mother's friend since birth. We were inseparable not until her coming of age," The woman said as she took a step closer towards Emelia, who took a step back. "How can I believe your words?" Asked Emelia as she uncousinly wrapped her hand onto the pendant her mother gave her.
