Each killing steals a bit of humanity until a murderer is nothing more than an animal. A hunger replaces the spirit. A want for what was lost, but as with innocence, the soul can never be replaced. Joy, love, and peace flee such a vessel and in their stead blooms a desire for blood and death. ✨ Michael J Sullivan (2013). The Crown Tower: Book 1 of The Riyria Chronicles, p.35, Hachette UK
