A gift not always given, and one that shouldn't be thrown away so easily.

From the lamb he tears its guts and makes his harp resound; from the wolf his most deadly tooth to polish his pretty works of art; from the elephant his tusks to make a toy for his child.(...)And who will exterminate him who exterminates all others?

She found a way of making the exciting men nicer and that was by leaving them. But then, they weren't exciting anymore either.
