In this, it was very much like Dominion: an elaborate game, where the outcome was to overwhelm your opponent. And structures had to be left in place to deal with changes. He’d enjoyed learning all he could about coercive sorcery. And yet… stealing the books had been a betrayal of the trust Simmon had placed in him. A betrayal of the Protectors and all they stood for.
