"That's it, that's the newspaper. Just look at it, it's his image on the front page." Elena remarked confidently while pointing at the paper in Alex's hand.
Alex glanced at Ana who, out of confusion, moved forward and took the paper from Alex's grasp to peruse the front's contents.
Seconds passed before Ana raised her head to meet Elena's gaze. "... I can't see anything. It's only the likeness of the Emperor that's printed here."
"That…"
Victoria also stepped forward to check as well before she calmly intoned. "Lady Ana is correct, there is no picture here."
"But… I can see it." Elena muttered softly, her visage masked with confusion as she found herself unable to figure out how she could see something that wasn't there.
"Elena… are you sure you can see the Emperor's image in this newspaper?" Alex finally inquired, his calm voice stifling the tension threatening to arise.
"... I don't know."
