For decades, paranoids everywhere had feared the day when Neolympians with the power to control and manipulate the minds of others would take over the world. Some of them claimed that day had already happened, and people did not realize it. The truth was that mind to mind communication of any kind was a two-way street. To control or even affect another mind, you had to become intimately linked to it. The targets’ memories and emotions touched the controller. Their pain became the controller’s pain. Telepathy begat empathy. The effect was magnified by the number of minds affected. The psychic trauma caused by trying to affect too many people was prohibitive. No Neolympian could control more than a few minds at once, and even that would bear a terrible price. Below Cassandra, eleven men and one woman died time after time, as she forced their neural pathways to experience alternate realities. She experienced each death in turn. Thought was becoming reality, and she was bleeding from multiple spontaneous wounds, far beyond what her limited healing abilities could handle.
