(Episode 13 is all about proving the innocence of Aphmau and by extension, Ashter. So episode 14 will take 13, so don't or try to not mix up the order! Thanks!)

Upon being realized, and a bunch of negotiating and lawsuit threats, Ashter was released from that horrible prison cell with new workers coming to take their places.

"Hmpf! Serves them right to mess with my TOTALLY innocent son!" Zina drives as Ashter... Still is shaken...

"Now... I've notified the school that you'll be having... A little vacation! How about it? A whole week off to see your uncle! I haven't seen him in so long..." Zina remembers him... He hasn't seen the man since Dan died.

"... Anyways, I called him and he was super excited to meet you! Hehehe, guess it's just that he never met you, his nephew!" Zina says as Ashter gives a slight chuckle...

"Hm? Something the matter sweety?" Zina asks as Ashter sighs,

"I... Had dreams... Of someone... I can't put my finger on it..." Ashter says, which alarms Zina a bit,

"Oh? And who is it...?" Zina wonders as Ashter shrugs,

"I've... Been seeing a weird... Woman, mist-like, and a Wolf... I'm not sure why... I saw them once or twice before..." Zina was confused, only putting this as some weird hallucinations,

"Well... Maybe this trip will help you clear up your head a little." Zina says as the two drive past many different areas, the city, and then the countryside. The atmosphere changes as Ashter can smell it clearly.

"He lives out here, mom?" Ashter asks as she nods,

"He owns a farm, so of course he'd be out here!" Zina smiles, excited to see her brother-in-law after so many years. About now he should be in his late if not mid-30s.

"We're here! The Lake Farmland!" Titles a sign as Ashter felt... So weirded out, seeing others outside of his family with the name "Lake" in their name. (Fun fact I've actually was weirded out when meeting a lot of relatives with my last name 😅)

Woah..." Ashter can smell everything, fertilizer, droppings, but a fresh smell of air whipping the air. Not long, the two drive up to a moderately big house. Two stories with a few windows indicating rooms. Cows, chickens, and many more animals are around as Ashter can see him, his uncle,

"There he is! And wow! Look at his he's grown!" Zina sees the clean-shaved man with his white and light red plaid shirt that's rolled up on its sleeves and jeans with brown boots.

"Ah, Zina! A pleasure to meet you after all these years!" Says the man as Zina exits the car, hugging her brother-in-law.

"Oh, it's been so long, James! How have you been?" Zina asks as the man chuckles,

"I'm fine, actually, I got myself a wife and a beautiful daughter! Hahaha, she's actually caring to the cows as we speak!" James chuckles, as a woman with short but in a ponytail, dark brown hair walks out of the house. She wears jeans and white and light blue plaid shirt with a cowboy/girl hat on her head,

"Well well well, if it isn't Zina Lake. I heard a lot about you from my lovely folk here, isn't that right, sugar?" Says the woman as Ashter sits in the car, dumbstruck by the clear words he can hear. Does he have a cousin? An aunt? An uncle? It was all overwhelming as Zina gestures Ashter to come out, which he did,
