Dimensional Descent

'Alpha Bluestar, huh?'

"Do you know where this Alpha Bluestar is?"

When Leonel asked this question, the Beta finally began to show some signs of discomfort. It seemed that he finally understood that Leonel wanted to harm Alpha Bluestar, and as such, the compulsion began to kick in.

It was a truly interesting technique. It worked on intention rather than a rough set of rules, and the former was far more difficult to produce than the latter.

Both had their own pitfalls, obviously, as Leonel was still able to get a lot of the information he wanted even with these guard rails. For example, he was able to learn about this Bluestar just by avoiding the topic of the Void Star Innate Node altogether, that way the Beta didn't put two and two together until he had already gathered quite some information.

But he would argue that drawing a hard line at some rules would have even more pitfalls. Anyone who knew a lawyer could attest to the fact that rules would always have loopholes in them, ones that Leonel was sure he could exploit with much greater ease than he was now.

"So that's a yes." Leonel nodded to himself. "And what is he doing now, exactly?"

"He... I... I don't know."

The Beta's lips trembled, and he couldn't quite get his words out, but judging by the shiftiness within them, he definitely knew more than he was letting on.

"Speak."

The Beta almost collapsed, but he seemed to be far more afraid of Leonel right now than he was afraid of a far-off Alpha Bluestar.
