Zerm's Demonstration

"Yes, but since you were incautious enough to open your mind to me, I can now compel you to obey me whether you want to or not. You are my tool until such time as I choose to close the mental connection. So you have nothing to bargain with."

"You're bluffing," Astra said, pretending to be more confident than she really was. "You can't control me."

"Can't I? Let me give you a little demonstration. Remove your trousers and let them fall to the seabed."

1. Astra finds herself compelled to obey, leaving her dressed in only her underpants.
2. Astra manages to resist. Zerm is both surprised and impressed.
