"When I came here, I'd really hoped that you might have changed. That you would have accepted my decisions and the path in life that I've chosen. It might not be glamorous, and the risks might be high, but I'm happy with where I'm at." Jasmine said, staring intently at her mother and waiting for her reply.
"You're living in a fantasy Jasmine! Being a part of the Alliance Police was one thing, but now you're just a mercenary fighting for money. Don't you realize that your outrageous dream has already failed. Those fictional heroes and rare few historical figures you look up to aren't realistic. But you can do good work here. Azade is your home. Why can't you just stay here and work on the betterment of this planet? As Chancellor, I can help you. All you have to do is stay and take your rightful place."
Regina's impassioned plea only received a shake of Jasmine's head in response. She never had any intention of returning to her mother's side as her pawn.
