Mars introduced his cousin, Ethos, to Emmelyn when they arrived at the governor's palace. Emmelyn thought Ethos look like his brother, Athos, but with a very different personality.
Ethos Greenan was much younger and he seemed more interested in books than politics. Seeing how beautiful and well-maintained her former palace was under Ethos's care, Emmelyn felt happy.
She already forgave Mars' family for the invasion they did to her country, and now she could see that three years after the invasion, Wintermere was actually thriving under Ethos' leadership.
So, coming to Wintermere this time as the wife of the king, Emmelyn felt no resentment seeing someone else living in her family's old residence.
She already made a new home in the capital with her husband and daughter. She had left that home for a long time, and now she couldn't wait to go back and rebuild her life with the man she loved and their children.
