Valari's words are crazy, yet The Queen believes them in full. Valari's body language is not one of a liar, and the way she glances to her side, Her Majesty could swear she could see the outside of Miss Emilia's mother, as if from perfect memory.
When Valari describes in perfect detail the uncredited gift, known as the Flower of Nōminstadt, Victoria Royale fights to hold back tears. As every other dignitary and monarch from the surrounding worlds, attempted to claim ownership of a gift they had not seen, they were each unable to describe the gift in question in any detail. For the first time in over 18 years, Victoria has heard the Princess' namesake described perfectly, from the mouth of a woman Victoria only met a few days prior.
"Then Lady Emilia, you have my utmost thanks. If there is anything the Kingdom can do for your estate, or your husband, you need but say the word. I admit, the prospect of an accompanying spectre is one I did not foresee in my excursion here today. However, if you so desire, I insist you travel with us back to the Kingdom at your leisure."
>[The Queen, Victoria Royale, does her best to find the words. It has been a confusing show to attend.]"Miss Valari... a woman of your gifts; I think you were sent to me for a reason. And I intend to find out what that is."
