You recall the Champion of Liberation's ability to manifest metaphorical shackles as physical ones in Questing Country? I inherited that ability, though outside of the dreamscape they won't be visible to anyone else. If I break that manifestation at the source, the link breaks with it. You don't have to see me. You don't even have to know I'm there.

The effect will outlast me if I'm killed in the fight - I have definitive proof of that. But I won't be able to keep it from forging a new link if I'm dead, if it has the presence of mind to try. We'll need the other solutions as a fallback, just in case.
