“I observed his orgy with the secret joy and contempt the pure have for the degraded. I felt as though I had been chosen for a mission, that my stumbling upon this man had been no accident, that we had been prepared for this day. A quiet came over, a calm I had not experienced for weeks, and a smile held my mouth. He had been delivered to me, my victim, my test, my salvation, and because of that raging hatred within me I sensed a profound love for him.”—Unnamed protaganist
