"E-Elara did?"
Astra was shocked to the point where she stuttered. Something that wasn't a very common occurrence.
"I don't believe this. You are putting the blame on her, she would never suggest something like this." Astra spoke as she narrowed her eyes. It wouldn't be the first time Vaan pushed the blame onto Elara, in Astra's mind, the chances of that happening again were higher.
"With that girl's nature, she would never suggest you to challenge other mages out in the open like that, if she did that, one of the biggest worries of my life would be solved," Astra spoke, and hearing what she said, Vaan frowned in confusion.
"What do you mean?"
Astra stared at Vaan for a while then, she decided to share her problems with her son, "You know how Elara is, she is timid."
