For another, he can’t abide the idea that anyone might be better than he is—at anything. For a third, he might just be a sociopath: the most dangerous sociopath ever to be born among men.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe powers of darkness are aware of him, and they don’t plan to let him work unmolested.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBut Todd will not go his way unmentored or unprotected.
