One part of her wanted to very suddenly, very violently, rip it from her skin, as though that was all it would take. Digging her fingers into her flesh, any part of it, every part of it, until it parted and bled, and she could drag the remnants of NamTar's experiment out through whatever pain that might cost, until she was just herself. Pure. Flawless. Superior. Peacekeeper.
Until she never gave in. Was never that scared. That desperate to have an option. To not be the only one of them without one.
