Lucretia was not only stunned to find out that her daughter was not actually dead, but even more stunned to find her. For as soon as she left the Red Dragon Inn, she came to see her across the street, asking around for a Lucy.
Of course, no one around her knew a Lucy, but a Lucretia, or Renna, they would know exactly of whom she was trying to find. A mixed emotions of nervousness, happiness and sorrow grew up to swell within her stomach. She had so many questions to ask her adopted child, but at the same time, wished not to know her. For Emma was better off without her. But still, she felt relieved that she did not actually kill her, and still, the day hit her haunts her.

But what as of late? When she saw a ghostly figure of Emma missing one leg, she looked deffinately dead, she was in the spirit world. Was this person an imposter? Was Lucretia's mind playing tricks? Or was the ghosts of the many she had killed, playing with her mind? Lucretia had no idea what to do, and did the only thing she thought was best for her Daughter, to stay away.

"Please! Do you know a Lucy Ren?" Came Emma's cry, as Lucretia froze up, her hood was hiding her face to prevent Emma from recognising her from behind, but now she was talking directly TOO Lucretia.
"That person died." Lucretia spoke, purposely lowering her voice to a grumble.
The girl then stood shocked. "But someone said they say here he-"
"Not now child! I am busy!" And with that Lucretia with her back still turned, walked away.
For a moment, Emma stood there, almost, stareing at the black cloaked form, in thought. But then, shook her head, no, that could not have been her Mother.

But she had to find out, Emma ran after the cloaked of whom she saw glimpsing just barely, turning a corner.
"Wait!" Emma cried after the figure with the cloak, for now she had just realised, that could have been her Mom! The voices were so similar, but why wouldn't her Mom acknowledge her return?
"Mom!" She cried again, to only now turn the corner and hit into the cloaked figure, falling to the floor.
Lucretia lowered her head to the girl, watching the foxy child blush and stand on her own two feet, sniffing the air. "... Emma?" Lucretia softly spoke, pulling down her hood.
Emma's eyes widen, it was indeed widen and then she quickly jumped forward, finally now finding her Mom, but bursting in tears and crying, "Mom! I forgive you, don't hide from anymore!"
Lucretia's eyes softened, and her head downcasted as she then came to hug the child back, hushing her softly, as she kissed the top of her head. "... I am sorry..." Tears formed now in her eyes, "I am sorry... I hit you... Emma."
Shaking her head, Emma conitnued to cry. "I forgive you, Mom..." She looked up to Lucretia before smiling, "I was angry at first, but I understand you, Mom, not like anyone else... You are a good person, even if you do get angry."
That burned Lucretia's concious. She was far from Kind, and did not wish to tell her daughter, of the things she had done. "Of course... Your right, I wouldn't do horrible things, would I?"
