Escape
A Bearer must take care when accepting a phantom. A phantom’s knowledge is passed to the Bearer, albeit imperfectly. What that means is thoughts may surface that are unlike your own. And you may find you know how to do certain tasks, where no prior knowledge existed before.
—From Introduction to Bearer Psychology
Ashlyn ran down the hall as fast as she could, careful not to hurt Cade more than she already had. He still hadn’t spoken, and his eyes remained closed. She wanted to check on him, but the guards would be upon them if she didn’t keep moving.
They came upon a simple steel door in the dungeon that looked out of place. A storeroom? Perhaps they could hide there until the guards passed by. She set Cade down to the side and pushed on the door. It would not budge.
