Morningside Cuesta red as blood

Nimue's eyes are even more eerie up close, Riqta finds. Her lips peel back from her teeth in warning though the ghost can't see it. She holds still in wait, allowing the blind woman to smell her almost indulgently. 

"Camazotz has blessed me," the vampire corrects almost automatically. The idea of playing along is forgotten. She would not dare to disrespect Camazotz by allowing this ghostly woman to believe the food came from her false God. 

"Have it. I am not hungry," Riqta does not elaborate further. She doesn't not explain that she rarely partakes of her sacrifices. Nor does she explain that the only thing she willingly takes is the animals' blood.

 "That is it," she agrees as Nimue points to it.
