Avery's interrogation tactics proved to work wonders on breaking the spy.
He had only needed to permanently disable one more limb before the man started talking. His left leg to be precise.
It seemed that while he was prepared for death or regular torture, Avery's unique brand was enough to crush his resolve.
Death or pain were things that came and ended swiftly, but what Avery had promised was instead a perpetual limbo that would have lasted for the rest of Kadfal's natural lifespan.
Only someone with a truly iron will would be able to accept such a fate just to keep quiet.
Once Avery had moved to take away the man's sight for good and gave him the opportunity to still live if he talked now, Kadfal had relented.
With the spy's will crushed, Avery called in Kasandra and Kaiden to ask questions and to confirm that their captive was not lying.
Fortunately, the guy had lost the strength to resist and told them everything that they wanted to know.
