บท 296: The Burningsun Tavern

Dammit.

Emmelyn really wanted to believe that her brother Killian didn't have a son out there. That the letter was sent by some evil people who just wanted money. But as she lay in bed at night, the image of a baby haunted her mind. 

What if they were telling the truth? She didn't know what happened to Killian after he left Glasswell and before he arrived in Draec. Killian had been wandering for two years before Emmelyn saw him in the capital. 

There was a possibility that he did meet another woman and have a child from her. If that was what happened, how could Emmelyn have the heart to let the child suffer?

After what happened to Killian, the least that Emmelyn could do was to take care of his son. No matter what, the child was her flesh and blood.

But.. what if they lied?

What guarantee did she have?

Emmelyn tried to think about it to find a way. Finally, despite having numerous discomfort in her body, Emmelyn decided to go.
