Steve remained paused momentarily, the weight of the word hanging heavy in the air —
"destruction." He muttered quietly.
"Yes… destruction." There wasn't much known about the Son of Hades, but that was the brutal truth.
"You have the power to destroy entire realms. That's why everyone feared him." The Queen Witcher's eyes softened with a hint of concern.
"So, the first problem is how to hide your true identity."
Steve frowned, the weight of the situation settling in.
"And how exactly are we supposed to do that? Even if I unlock my powers, you're telling me there's a chance that using them wrongly could destroy the whole world… the entire realm."
She smiled gently, a hint of amusement playing at her lips.
"Not exactly." He stopped her with a questioning glance.
She leaned in slightly, voice lowering, almost like a secret.
"Your power could do that, yes. But whether you use it knowingly or not, I would be the one to stop you — to kill you before any destruction could happen."
