The Countess and her daughter

Skingrad, Cyrodiil 4E 195. Caelya just turned 20 and her mother, Countess Aurelia of Skingrad, did everything to keep control over her daughter. Someday the mother came in Caelya's room, put off her crown and set it on her daughter's head. They both stood in front of a big mirror and began to talk:
Caelya: ''What are you doing...?? Mother..., please! I don't wanna be Countess!''
Mother: ''What do you see, when you look in that mirror? I see a beautiful, intelligent young Countess. You will be a great leader, it's in our family... I'm so proud of you...''
Caelya: ''Mom, please, I hate this crown... and I hate this town... I just wanna be free... I want to explore the world... do you understand. You always compare me with Julia, but I am not Julia... Please mother... find someone else.''
Mother: ''This crown is over 200 years in our family. All, who wore it before, fought for this town... They risked their lifes, for this town... And now we have peace and order here. Do you really want to throw this all away?''
Caelya: ''Peace and order? For how long? One, maybe two years? Sorry mother, but this is not the life, that I want to live...''
They never saw each other again after this conversation... One day later, Caelya decided to ran away with Chiara. Chiara Avento was Caelya's best friend and from a noble family too. They grew up together. Chiara was a very tough girl, always looking for adventures. And so their journey to Skyrim began...
