Yemima stood before the simple manor and watched Hetsema walk toward her.
Although she had always stayed on Mount Doom, she was aware of the things happening outside. She knew her son had returned to the Human Race and went by a new name given by Thea, Hetsema Caden.
Hetsema stopped before Yemima. He looked at the beautiful but haggard-looking woman and knelt to the ground. Then, he greeted her respectfully, “Mother.”
Yemima quickly helped him up and said, “What are you doing? You’re the Orstellen Sect’s Leader and have a high status in the Endlos. Hurry, get up.”
“Mother, come with me to the Orstellen Sect,” said Hetsema.
Hetsema’s purpose for visiting the Dooms was to pick up Yemima and bring her to the Orstellen Sect.
Yemima replied, “Why would I go there? I don’t want to. I’m fine staying here. It would be uncomfortable living in an unfamiliar place.”
Hetsema looked at her and said, “Between Wyot and James, who do you love?”
“W-Why are you asking that?” Yemima averted her eyes, afraid to meet Hetsema’s gaze.
“I can’t bear seeing you stay alone on Mount Doom. Give me an answer, and I’ll talk with them about it,” Hetsema said straightforwardly.
Yemima noticed the persistence on Hetsema’s face. She reached out and caressed his face, saying, “I’ve never seen your face so close up before. You’re all grown up now. You shouldn’t cause trouble for others.”
