I am not here for you to lift me out of the shadows, only to clothe me in silver wings, the scales of a fish, and a serpent’s tail. I am not here to breathe fire at your command, or to be darkly beautiful as I fly before the sun, or for you to permit a fool to eat my heart.' "I am not here to serve you."
