"So… Was that mind control?" I asked, laying down on Mara's examination table in the medical room.
She came to get me earlier because apparently the Gene mod she was researching on was finally ready.
She paused before speaking again, "Not exactly. It's more like a subtle influencing of the mind and it's something that is done subconsciously. Powerful Psionics are capable of doing that but it's a closely guarded secret amongst the Nobles."
"Does that mean… Strong Psionics can basically make people do what they want?"
"Not exactly. It's just making people feel more comfortable. They still won't be able to get people to do what they don't want. But it's true that it definitely helps in negotiations."
"Huh… And this isn't considered mind control at all where Psionics can just subtly influence people to do what they want?"
