All the women, including Lina, stared back at Jack. That statement shook all of their hearts.

Dragas stared at Jack with neither a smile nor a frown, curious. "What do you mean by that?"

Swallowing more of his nerves, Jack managed to reply while motioning to Eliza, "Well… If you make Eliza your daughter… Then you can help raise your granddaughter."

"Jack, that's very different, though," replied Dragas. "It wouldn't be the same as bearing my own child. And isn't Eliza in your party, meaning she'll be busy adventuring and isn't prepared to raise a child?"

"That's where you come in…" Jack replied, still too uncomfortable to easily mention such an idea. "After labor… Eliza could resume her travels with us and leave the child-raising to you… That's something that even Lunara doesn't get to do."
