章節 183: The Many Sacrifices of Will, Part 1

Note: Edited - 15/09/23; Changed the entire last third of the chapter. It raises the stakes by a lot while also refreshing an old bit of lore regarding Gleipnir and Fenrir. I moved Circe's part to the next chapter. More fitting over there. Enjoy!

A brief delusion of grandeur—achieving what no one before me has ever done—gripped me tight. It might have choked me into submission, driving me to willingly do what Fenrisúlfr wanted, if I didn't suddenly feel a cool minty touch spread through my hand to stretch across my arm and send invigorating vibes throughout my body—and with that refreshing feeling came clarity. 

I glanced sideways at Liara, a grin flashing on my face. "Neat trick." 

"You looked like you might need a 'Cool Head' for a change," she replied, smiling back.
