The life bond that protects them from death also binds their spirits and powers. Fighting the bond will destroy them both and bring ruin faster than any sword or army.

"So consumed by losing the company, so terrified of ending up weak like my father, that I let Callan hand me the blindfold myself. I'll spend the rest of my life paying for that storm. But nobody puts you out again. Not Callan. Not the board. Not anyone." Part of me the foolish part that had once loved him with everything I had wanted to believe in him. But trust isn't a switch.
