The two women were sharing happiness over the baby. One would soon be a grandmother, and the other one first time mother. Both had such a wonderful glow on their faces. They couldn't help smile so broadly whenever they talked about the baby.
After Harlow calmed down and no longer kicking, Queen Elara took Emmelyn to her private lounge and the two ladies sat leisurely while enjoying tea.
The queen took the opportunity to get to know Emmelyn better since now her true identity had been revealed. Queen Elara asked about her parents, what she liked and didn't like, and where she went before she came to Draec.
"I am truly, truly sorry for what happened to your family," Queen Elara said in a low voice while cupping Emmelyn's hands with hers. "I can imagine the pain and suffering that you have gone through because of the war. On behalf of my family.. please accept our apologies and condolences."
