"Chains are actually secure he wasn't any closer to having them off." Randolph had dropped pretense, he had the goon check Rem's chains and Rem knew the jig was up. Rem was still completely confused as to why Randolph was working against him, or what was even going on. Especially since after checking his chains Randolph and his goon left, leaving Rem all by himself to consider his fate. In his desperation he effectively called for the gods to help and surprisingly someone answered.
"I had the oddest feeling like someone invading my mind hoping for a solution, is that you Remle Crowe." He heard the voice in his mind and he could almost visualize Trezlan sitting on a command deck somewhere in deep space, it was entirely confusing as to where the man was, and why Rem could see him, let alone seemingly speak with him.
"I don't know how or why I can connect to you, but I'm in real trouble, I'm chained to a chair and the people behind it I believe are going to kill me." It was weird to talk to someone else through thoughts, for a brief moment Rem considered he was going crazy.
"Chain to a chair about to be executed, its like we were born to be connected, ok give me the details Rem don't leave anything out." Rem wanted to laugh at the absurdity of it, but he went over all the things he knew which wasn't much to Trezlan, Trezlan considered it briefly and then responded.
"You'll have to pop your bone out of joint, it'll hurt like no ones business, but if you do that you'll be able to slip the chains easy, let me show you in the link how this goes describing it is not how I learned." Trezlan through the mind link showed rem how to effectively pseudo break his thumb to free himself from the chains, it did look quite painful, but so was dying. Rem managed the maneuver and freed his hands, but his thumb were in agony, even after he popped them back into place as Trezlan instructed.
"Well I'm free, now what do I do?"
"Well in my case it would be burn everything on my way out, for you, uhh shit do you have a pistol or anything?"
"I had one."
"Well shit, I think you're still kind of screwed, I'd help but I'm pretty sure I'm a long way from you, so uhh good luck don't die."
"You're super helpful." Trezlan had already broken the mental connection, but Rem was sure he got that last message anyway. Still he had freed himself which was a plus, now he just needed to know what to do next, which seemed like harder than freeing himself now that he was free.
