And I chose...
[Dimensional Breaker].
The reason was simple. Or maybe not so simple.
The truth was, Beastbound Sovereign had tempted me. The idea of an army of monsters at my command was intoxicating. But the skill Primal Bond carried a catch I couldn't ignore.
It required me to seek out monsters, forge connections, and strike terms with each of them before the bond would take.
Agreed terms.
Those two words gnawed at me the moment I read them.
It meant negotiation. Bargains. Endless back-and-forth until the beast was satisfied. Which, let's be honest, was nothing but trouble. Every new ally would be another headache of demands and conditions.
Who knew what else?
If it had been more like necromancy—where I could simply slay a creature, whisper "arise," and claim it as mine—then the decision would have been different. That kind of straightforward dominance I could work with.
No questions asked, no compromises needed.
