Er, no. I just - I don't like dogs on principle. The dogs, on the street were, um. They bit a lot.
[ an orphan just shy of six does not competition make, for a wily street hound. he could still count the bites on his ankles and wrists, when he had his old body, even when he was well into his adult years. he'd always been a bit more mangy than the other cultivators, a little rougher, a little less pristine. the dog-fear follows him, he doesn't know how to give it voice other than yelling and crying over it. it's not a topic cain needs to have to use against him, either.
the corpses, he does not and has never really feared. ]
It was a spell, you're correct. One of my own, actually. The young man who used it, Mo Xuanyu, he got hold of my cultivation notes somehow. [ he has an idea how, actually ] And he used them to sacrifice himself, willingly - to give his body to me in the name of vengeance. He -- he's dead now, irrevocably. And I'm here instead.
