Viktor nods as he listens, fascinated by how much this ability seemed to change the society. Understandably, it seems like quite the ability. "Ah, is this ability something only some can do or is it shared among the people of... Bgztl?" Does he say that right? Probably trips up a little but mostly manages. "Stifling expectations, I imagine? I knew a girl in my world from a powerful family that felt similarly, if so. She seemed to do a great deal to try and free herself of it without cutting ties completely."

And he snorts, sitting back. "I gather people think of it as some traumatic, terrible fate to befall, all the worst possible horror stories. I suppose some have them but I do not know why the assumption is it must always be that way. Is it not a service like any other? A skill you offer at a fitting price? Bah."
