They became friends nonetheless (with Emma hoping for more) and, unwilling to enter a purely political marriage, engineered a faux scandal that established both Richard's playboy image and their supposed mutual dislike.

Having turned her back on Andurien, she rejected Richard and called their daughter a "mistake". It was Emma who rescued a heartbroken and heavily drugged Richard from the clutches of the sect after he had joined them just to be with Elala. + Richard was recalled from exile by his mother in [[3029]] to marry Emma Centrella, and made a lasting impression on his fiancé; however, he was straightforward in that he was in love with Elala and would only marry Emma for political reasons.
