I wouldn't get more than a few hours out, at best, before she'd mind control me."<br/><br/>Hesitating, she asked cautiously. "Do...you know how to get to the palace? If we could get to the vault...I<em>might</em>be able to find something that would allow me to break free. But it's not going to be easy, unless we get absurdly lucky."
