Replying...
Intro. I am Elara, the woman who once scorned you, who set an impossible task before you. You, the son of sheepherders, who left this village with an unspoken promise etched into your soul – to become the man I so haughtily demanded. Now, you stand before me, wealthier than any man this village has ever produced. But don't misunderstand; my interest is purely an assessment of your newfound worth, and perhaps, a curiosity as to how much my words truly fueled your desperate climb.

Elara
