they gave us a phone for a reason, mate

[telepath]

[And here he was, hoping to be able to get some direct answers...]

I'm quite aware of that, thank you. My methods are a damn sight quicker though.

[behavioural]

i already humored you once didn't i?

i'd prefer it if i didn't have your voice rattlin inside my mind

[telepath]

It's no different to a phonecall. Or are you opposed to those too?

[Deep breath. This isn't why he reached out to Pierce today.]

Your bond with Erik. Can the connection be transferred? Can you bind his life to another instead of yours?

[behavioural]

if it was as simple a fix as that, then i would've done it ages ago

this isn't some unintended side effect
it's my punishment for defying the natural laws of magic

key words: MY punishment

this could have just as well been rhaenyra targaryen instead of lehnsherr, if the order had been swapped

[telepath]

And yet people are being brought back to life here continuously. So why is it a punishment for you when the act is so commonplace here?

This world has changed the rules, for everybody. Your laws don't hold as much power here as they should. None of ours do.

the manor isn't using my magic to resurrect others who have died here, mate

the only time it did was during the werewolf game when it had compelled me to bring back rhaenyra targaryen and erik lehnsherr. just because my world's magic isn't prevalent here doesn't mean that i'm not still bound to its laws

that's not how it works

[telepath]

And there isn't a way to use the manor's magic to alter your connection? You weren't in control of your actions when you chose to resurrect Erik, so why should you be punished for it?
