"I do not think it's dormant anymore. If it were, my soul is healed; shouldn't it have returned by now? I think it was severed. I think Ukrae is angry," he said regretfully.
"Taking his sweet tgiving it back. It worries me. What if he dissolved the bond completely?" The Oracle turned to him, her golden-streaked eyes locking onto his.

"Two weeks ago, all I wanted was to feel our bond again. To better protect her. To hear her call whenever she was in danger. But now..." "Now you are not so sure anymore?" He shook his head.
"Something happened... I lost control and almost killed her." He did not bother to hide the shthat cwith those words.
"My mind is not as healed as I thought it was. And because of that, she was in grave danger trying to save me. Again." "Ah," the Oracle murmured.

Daemonikai's mind raced. Powers? What kind of gift? Questions flooded his thoughts. The Oracle turned, beginning to walk again, and Daemonikai fell into step beside her.
"I may not be able to tell you much about your condition, but I can tell you this keep that princess as close to you as possible. And keep fighting for what you have," she glanced at him. "Who knows? You may triumph in the end."
