Spiritual Root Grafting

Alex could have done what he was about to do without telling the woman, but he found that in itself more demonic than the act could ever be. Which was why he decided to let her know what he was going to do instead of keeping her in the dark.

Still, he didn't tell her everything. Everything the girl knew was that she was going to have a part of her spiritual root removed and then healed back up to hopefully no longer be a problem.

He absolutely did not want to have to explain to her how it was that he had come across another spiritual root that he could place into her body.

The young woman prepared herself for the surgery and Alex gave her a pill to eat.

"What is this?" She was puzzled at the sight of the pill.

"Something to get you knocked out while I work on your spiritual root," he said. "Or else the pain will be too much for you to handle."

The young woman slowly nodded. "Isn't there a pill to just have me not feel pain?" she asked.
