After Grant had chimed in, echoing Savayna’s rather extreme stipulation of Emette telling her exactly who she was or no one would be able to go. DEspite it being ice and how the likes of Jaakuna could’ve gone through with ease, the additional strife between friends was something that he didn’t need. Besides, now was as good a time as any to get the truth out of Emette. Despite how the situation involving Emiri was getting direr as time went on, Jaakuna wanted to know as well.

And before Emette would state her real identity, she told them that she came up with the name Emette on the fly and how she had two names.  She warned them that her real identity would probably throw them off guard. As much as Jaakuna doubted that, she would then explain, but first, she pulled out a necklace. It took Jaakuna a moment, but when he looked at it and heard her speak, it clicked with him. He figured out who she was just moments before she revealed her name.

Justine. It’s Justine.

That realization came with a notable gasp from Jaakuna. It came at the right time as she had announced her other name, Emet-Selch, the Angel of Truth. She was the opposite of Zalera. And she was Emiri’s mother. It all made sense now. How could he had been so blind to this? The way she acted, the way she was towards Jaakuna, and how she knew so much about everyone - all of it was so obvious. As the Transcendent, Jaakuna should’ve been able to see this, yet he was as blind as he was when he was under Venat’s Influence.

[color=lightblue]“Bullshit.”[/color] Jaakuna suddenly heard Savayna speak. [color=lightblue]“Justine died in that explosion in the Stigma Mines. Even if you are her, how are we to believe you about your [i]other[/i] name?”[/color]

[color=ed1c24]“Emette [i]did [/i]say not all of us would believe her.”[/color] Jaakuna mused. He turned his head to face Savayna. [color=ed1c24]“She’s telling the truth.”[/color]

[color=lightblue]“You’re as gullible as ever, Jaakuna. She’s trying to bullshit us.”[/color]

[color=ed1c24]“No she’s not.”[/color]

[color=lightblue]“And how do you know.?”[/color]

[color=ed1c24]“That necklace of hers, specifically the key.”[/color]

[color=lightblue]“What about it?”[/color]

Jaakuna let out a single chuckle, looking at Emet. [color=ed1c24]“It’s the key to the house that she and Emiri lived in before Karolina married into the royal family, isn't’ that right, Lorenzo?”[/color]
