In that case, I suppose now would be a good time to explain the process itself. [Her hand touches the bottom edge of her blindfold.]
Illusionists are so named because of the illusions we create whenever a creature looks into our eyes. Although we can manipulate what sort of illusion may appear, we are not able to control the illusions themselves... that is to say, were I to walk around with my eyes open, I would accidentally draw every creature I make eye contact with into an illusion.
It is through the use of these illusions that the soul of a creature becomes vulnerable, and I am able to draw it out. Breaking eye contact breaks the illusion, thus, preventing me from feeding.
