"That much I understand." The werewolf followed her gaze toward the chamber. "And yes, Hoyo will be different."
Izalith turned toward him. "You sound far more certain about that than you did about anything else."
"He is not from another world. He was born here, raised here, and broken here. He knows what happens when power fails because he has survived the consequences." The werewolf rested both hands upon the chair. "He understands hunger without needing a quest to explain it. He knows titles do not stop blades, and being chosen means nothing if the person carrying the blessing is incompetent."
Izalith listened without interrupting as the Treacherous Fanged Wolf continued.
"Hoyo survived without gods laying a path in front of him. Now he will receive the Hero's path after learning how to walk without it. That makes him considerably more useful than someone who has never known anything else."
