"Don't they already know the face behind the mask?" Zavis inquired, and Adora gave him a sidelong glance.
"Zavis, stop being mean to Adora; you're no longer children," the queen said.
"Aunt, let him speak, he's not looking for a fight, he just can't express what he is really feeling right now, I suggest you tell him to stop being a coward, I'm not going to let anyone walk on me," Adora said as she stood up and prepared to leave.
"Did you do it?" he asked, leaping from his seat, and Adora's eyes widened as she turned to face him.
"Did I murder my mother?" "Is that what you're asking, Zavis?" she questioned.
"Zavis!" yelled Niya.
"Niya, stay out of it, we are no longer kids," Adora said, and the girl lowered her head as Adora approached Zavis and he looked her in the eyes.
"I don't know what to believe, she was like a mother to me, we always fought as kids but- that's somehow hard to believe, did you do it Adora?" he asked and she sighed.
