Capítulo 256: Clearing the Fog - Part 4

ELRETH

Elreth gaped. "How could that be?"

Mom shook her head. "This is what I meant, Elreth. You have to learn to trust. Do you understand? You have to trust that I would never make a decision like that for any reason except that it would help you. I'm not telling you to pretend this isn't happening. I'm not saying you shouldn't pursue it. I'm not telling you to leave people in danger. I'm saying go. Explore. Investigate. Learn what you can and take the action you deem necessary. But do not ask me to put an obstacle in your way, because I won't."

"How can you even think that knowing the full picture would do that?"

"BECAUSE THE CREATOR TOLD ME," her mother burst out.

Elreth stood in stunned silence as her mother folded her arms again, the met her gaze with eyes that flickered back and forth as if she was reluctant to hold her daughter's gaze.
