NEOMA felt anxious now that she was about to embark on a dangerous journey. After all, she was headed to a place that the blessings of gods didn't reach. But she wasn't afraid for her life because she knew that she was strong enough to protect herself from any danger.
However, totally leaving the empire made her nervous.
[I mean, technically, I already left the empire since I'm currently on the East Continent. But you get what I'm saying, right?]
It was as if everything would turn wrong once she left.
[Is this what mothers feel when they leave their children under the care of other people? But when did the empire become my child? Oh, is it because I'm going to be the empress regnant soon? After all, the common people would often refer to the empress as the 'Mother of Empire.']
