Fair enough. He's had enough choices taken away from him, angels know, I've no desire to take any more.

[Muffet doesn't understand what it's like to have your life ruled by gods and prophecies the way Ardyn and Asch do- and what's more, she's entirely aware of that. It's why she trusts him more on this subject, to know more about what would be more helpful for Ardyn than the rest of them would. She's thankful not to have personal experience with that sort of pain, and she wouldn't wish it on anyone, but if the knowledge is useful then she won't ignore it.]

I think I'd just like for him to have the chance to find out, regardless of what he discovers.

[Her mind is quietly going over what he said about his full power, wondering if... It's not as though she's been keeping it a secret here, really. It's just... not the kind of thing you talk about casually. Not with what it led humanity to do to her people, for the fear of it.]

[But it might be useful for him to know.]


On the subject of our own powers... part of what my type of magic allows us to do, how it works, is the ability to manifest a person's soul physically, in a way that it can be interacted with.

Both one's own soul or that of another.

I know for a fact that this power, at least, still works here. [Bless you for your reckless curiosity, Newton Geiszler.] I can't say if it would really do anything to help, and I won't do it without his express consent, but... Perhaps it might be part of an answer, if we can figure out the rest.
