Blaze's eyes glow yellow, and the mark of Soul Slave is engraved onto Norman's soul.
Blaze trusts Sebastian's judgment, but he can never be too sure. He can only trust what he sees for himself.
So without warning, Blaze grabs the head of Norman's soul and looks into his memory.
His lifelong career and childhood show up in Blaze's mind like a fast-forward movie.
Norman was raised by a single mother. His mother was a prostitute, so he had a very early experience with the dark underbelly of society. What was thought to be a throwaway life of little Reddington quickly got flipped over when he had to defend his mother against one of her clients.
That man did not survive, and the young Norman was sent to jail without any trial.
It seems harsh and cruel, but Blaze isn't surprised. Norman did not have any power at the time and was considered trashy, the lowest of the low in Ranas' society.
