Lord Draken isn't your master, I am

Cass was in a bit of daze for the morning after he spoke to Lord Blackburn. He felt like he didn't get to speak to him enough, but at the same time, he learned a lot. He didn't get to ask him about magic, or about any of the plans he'd made. He was kicking himself about that, and also about the fact that he didn't get a straight answer from him. 

Lord Blackburn didn't say yes or no to if it was okay for Cass to be in his body. All he said was that the 'gods' made a good choice. Whatever the hell that meant. Cass knew it wasn't an actual answer, and that alone told him that Lord Blackburn probably had some reservations about Cass being here, taking over.
