Emma's heart should have been restless. Not only was the Count in danger, she had entered a place that clearly did not seem to belong to the mortal plane.
However, when she came across this cluster of golden lights, her heart felt unnaturally calm. It was as if she were resting on her bed after a long, exhausting day of training. Something similar to how she felt when she was in William's arms, as though nothing in the world could possibly go wrong.
But that was exactly what made her frown. William wasn't beside her, and she knew she shouldn't be this calm about the situation.

More than curiosity about what this being was, she was desperate to return and heal her father-in-law.
The cluster of small orbs remained silent for a brief moment before reassuring her. "The passage of time flows differently here. Don't worry, our conversation will not change much in the real world."
Emma raised her brows. "So this place isn't a real world?"
