Not for the first time in his life, Toki's fate is sealed. This time by an over excited tutor. It's fine the boy's unsure for the moment, he'll explain the specifics and details in time, once he's got this all set up, and he has got ideas...
But loopholes! Yes, that he can explain now.
"Ah, right! Well, you see, contracts are all about wording. It's sort of like an advanced study of language, or poetry, where words can have multiple meanings, and unspecified demands can be exploited! For example; a demon's contract demands you bring to them a piece of sky. Obviously you cannot bring them an actual piece of the sky. Or at least not without some crazy magic and breaking a few laws of physics. However, if you know a person named Sky and you, lets say, got a piece of hair off them. You could then give the demon that hair and fulfill the contract of giving 'a piece of sky'. Make sense?"
