A different person
Gyles.
I think I messed things up.
Is it possible to make someone worse than they were before you offered to help? When I convinced Rex to let me do the compulsion, I did it to get him out of the funk he is in. if he knows who enchanted him—then we could get the person to undo it. for a second, it was working. I saw the look in his eyes, I felt the release I usually get when I compel someone. We were interrupted but that shouldn't have changed anything.
"Hey,'' I grab his chin and he looks at me. His eyes are red. It looks like he has been crying but no tears have dropped out of them. Right now Rex is messed up. The more I look at him, the more I feel him slip away from me. The man I know and have come to love is not in this body.
