"I dream that I'm in a cage or shackles... And I don't even have control of myself in the dream... I just sit there, doing nothing. Like I have completely lost my free will..."

*Mortar sighs a little* I know how that feels, that was pretty much my soul when Garuud stole it. Wait, we're going off topic. How long has this been going on?
-
"Since I got the collar..."
-
Oh... I think I know what's going on. William is making this happen to you to make you feel hopeless and therefore bend you to his will. It's cruel, but I gotta admit very ingenious, I've used a similar tactic in the good old days to get prisoners to turn themselves in or kill themselves.
-
"No, I-I don't think that's it... I mean... Maybe..."
-
It's most likely that... Not the point. The point is I can help you cope with these nightmares.
-
"I don't know... I use lucid dreaming to help with my normal nightmares... But these just seem so real already..."
-
Oh, I can't help change the dreams, I can just help with not... Not giving in to him.
-
"I-I don't think I need help with that... Others have tried..."
-
I will
-
"Will what?"
-
I will help you Sketch
-
"O-Okay... But I won't give in to it... Again, others have tried to use mind control and that kind of thing..."
-
I don't have that type of ability. I can only really give you moral support.
-
*He sighs.* "You s-said William is trying to c-control my mind. I am saying p-people have tried to do that a-and failed. I am not saying that y-you should try it. I'm s-saying that I-I am capable o-of keeping them f-from getting to me..."
-
It's not mind control. It's "Psychological suggestions." Basically you end up wanting to do it not against your will.
-
"People have t-tried that too... I'm too stubborn for even suggestions t-to work..."
-
Hmm... Strange. But then again, you've never had a collar on for this long
-
"I've never had one on before... It's terrible..."
-
I can only guess how bad it is. I'm sorry Sketch
-
"Th-Thanks..."
-
Don't worry Sketch. We'll get it off. I'm thinking about getting ISIC to hire William to collect you and bring you to him. He hasn't met ISIC yet
-
"William's already coming after me though..."
-
What does he want more though? Six bucks or ten?
-
"Six apparently..."
-
What makes you say that?
