Chapter 233: Long Forgotten
Rainier sat on his bed, looking at his hands.
His godflesh-covered hands.
He had expected something to change about him, but not this. Not the parts that the angels had grafted onto him, to replace his lost arm. The godflesh that now occupied his entire torso, ending just above his knees.
Since then, he’d managed to crush a cup, snap his toothbrush, and bend his door handle just trying to manage his new strength.
Then there was the vision. The one he’d had...
He’d tried to argue against letting the others try, but first Ozzy and then Lute and Ed had undergone the treatment.
Ozzy came out with both arms covered to the shoulders, the godflesh wrapping just around his chest. Ozzy and Lute came out with opposite sides of their bodies covered down to the foot.
None of them had reported visions.
And no one knew what Rain had seen.
The only theory Malz had come up with was that Rain already had his godflesh enhanced when he was given wings. Thus, he was far more integrated with it, and had been pushed farther along.
He was still ruminating on his body when there was a knock at his door and Cassie pushed it open.
