Ixion sat in a lotus position, Runa standing behind him awkwardly resting her hands on his shoulders.
"What an odd ability you have."
Learning a person's emotions through heightened observation seemed to be a secondary passive function of her Aspect. As for the main one…
Ixion thought back to the description he had Runa reveal to him.
[Cathartic Mandate] - [You draw forth the buried fractures of the heart, unraveling restraint and coercing emotion into revelation.]
It was after hearing the description that he instantly got a sense of why Sloth urged him to gain Runa as a friend…
'She's going to be my glorified therapist!'
It would be Runa's job to stop Ixion from going insane too early. Preferably at all. Though that was a tall ask.
It would be hard to claim even a shred of sanity when his kill count eventually surpassed a million — a million not including the Scourge.
As for the actual effect…
It sedated him.
