in contrast, Aventus has always been a thinker. she both admires the way he can delve beneath the surface of things, but doesn't envy the moments when he's stymied, trapped between his ruminations and what must be done.

she's liked him best when he's given into the savagery, the nature they were born into.

Merrick wahh' mad, she answers reasonably. our life then. . .nohh' 'hhe life we've made here. he prayed; we hunhh'. he killedh for noh'hing—we kill for. . .

Avicus struggles for the right word, then finds it. life.

there would be no bloody sacrifices or strange rituals on the Rise. their children would do all they could to survive, but whatever was beyond would be left to them. 

i'm nohh' him. you're nohh' him.

thank god.
but see, amid the mimic rout,
a crawling shape intrude —
a blood-red thing that writhes from out
the scenic solitude
