Broken Solider, Silent Warfare

Akibrus offered a smile, I think, unless you are able to trust your demon, he will not trust you. And as trust is a two-way street... An awkward shrug.

But having the threat, that should your demon act against you, act against those you care about, having the ability to render yourself useless to his cause... He held up two hands, showing a balancing of the scales.

It balances out. He cannot act out without you sealing your magic. And it should bring you some peace.
