  Summary

  He would give everything to Boothill — his brain, viscera, arms, legs, muscles, tendons, bones, and blood. Argenti would offer every part of himself willingly to the Galaxy Ranger. But he could not give his heart, something that precious could only belong to Idrila.

  But his heart was stolen anyway, without Argenti ever knowing.

  (What a shame that death cannot erase the powers of an Aeon after they're gone. And even the most benevolent of them would leave a curse behind.)
