"Really, Asher?"
"Yes."
Lucius did not make much efforts to speak with Bordeaux during the time that the man was willing to speak with him.
'Even if he says that he was willing to speak with me during that time, it is actually likely that he could be speaking lies and I will not have anything to prove the validity of his statements. And while I do have the Soul Scry spell which I could have used to thoroughly search him prior… with his body and brain still intact, I can also do this.' Lucius thought.
There was a link between Lucius and all of the Lost that he had made. It was easy for him to read their motivations, feelings and instincts and for someone like Bordeaux, it was also possible to search through his memories.
'Or at least whatever has survived during the transformation process.'
If there was no retention of basic instincts and even some memories, it was impossible for a Lost to be able to stand up, fight and perform their tasks.
