I forget, why is she so sure the emperor and whatsherface will kill her? At this point she still believes she's the only one who knows who the father is?
@cocobir The emperor because he has a penchant for murdering people at, seemingly, the smallest provocations. The lady because she's after the emperor's hand in marriage and is considered a snake by even her own brother, thus would likely try to get rid of any potential competition.
