"This is an ability I gained after my breakthrough, Father. My affinity evolved," Theo began.
"I can link two individuals, be they human or beast, through my affinity and grant them the same options I receive. Then the same things happen to me.

"You do know the kind of trouble you can get yourself into if this gets out, right?" he muttered with unsettled eyes.
