Tom sat there, his mind reeling from the information he had just heard. The maid, Meg, had shared a startling revelation about Lady Elenore having a second soul that woke up when she slept and claiming to be from another world. Lord John had confirmed the truth of Meg's words, but Tom found it difficult to believe such an extraordinary explanation.
"Okay," Tom said, his brow furrowed as he tried to process the situation with Meg, the maid. "So, let me make sure I understand this correctly. You're telling us that there is another soul named Emma who claims to come from another world, and this is somehow connected to Lady Elenore?"
Meg, still tied to the chair, nodded and spoke through her tears. "Yes, that's what Lady Elenore told me. When she falls asleep, her second soul wakes up, and it claims to be Emma from another world."
