The pinnacle of lust which mounts in the very last breath, when the light drains from the victim's eyes and when the soul fades... Then there is only a triumphant cry to the moonlight and the beckoning depths of the ever waiting water.”
― Melissa St. Hilaire, Saurimonde

― Scarlett Amaris, Saurimonde III
