Bayne flinched and held her cheek as she was hit. "If I'm anything like The'kal, I am! Fine, never mind what Zelina thinks about me, but what about everyone else who sees me as a demon? The Farstriders in the area know me, but what about in the city? Do you think I could just walk around without disguising myself? Look, I love you too but it is what it is. I can't be a person, I'll always be a demon or... or worse, whatever my 'mother' is. I've never been normal and I never will be." She closed her eyes and after a moment let herself fall over to rest her head on Susan's lap. "Well my mother, my real mother, is quite excited to have another me to raise. I don't know what to do, how I should be feeling. So many conflicting emotions and succubi don't do well with emotional stress."<div class="messageTextEndMarker"> </div>
