Chapter 38 of A Song of Bonds and Legacies
… is now on Ao3. Read it here.
Among the first things Azriel learned upon becoming the Night Court’s Shadowsinger was that having one’s mind read felt like an intrusion upon the body: as foreign and invasive as an arrowhead, pushing tissue and organs aside.
It was mass and essence butting in where it didn’t belong, a stranger invading one’s home. A daemati’s powers went deeper than physical magic, seizing not just the mind but a person’s entire being. If so inclined, they could control one’s breath, set nerves aflame without injury or will the muscles to cramp and stop working.
It was utter and complete domination.
