Then you feel a hot breath inches from your face just as you're about to leave. "You're quite bright, aren't you? You figured it all out just from this?" An intoxicating voice whispers inches from your ear, this time, you don't dare look. "That's right, move, and you'll end up just like the rest of these humans." You try to reach out through your mental link with Betty only for your heart to sink. She's asleep?! Really?! Now?!

Though you manage to resist the effects of that intoxicating voice of hers, you aren't just about to allow your senses to be taken from you by some magical enchantment like this. No matter how potent the magic infused within her voice might be, or how convincing her voice might be, you aren't going to allow your senses to be robbed of you. You can only imagine it has something to do with your developing Reality Marble or your Element that allows you to resist the intoxicating effect of her voice.
