There is an old Malkavian tale. When I made a sacrifice of plants and fed upon them, I rose above them and became Lord over Plants and  like unto a god. When I made a sacrifice of animals and fed upon them, I rose above them and became Lord over animals and  like unto a god. When I made a sacrifice of men and fed upon them, I rose above them and became Lord over men and  like unto a god. The Malkavian know more of these vital matters than the other clans. They understand that spirit has risen from plant, to animal, to man, to kindred. We are not accursed by God, we are blessed. Gifted with Life everlasting.

Think on what you do, my son. Grandsire Cain himself has come to me and told me: Become an eternal sacrifice, so that all may have life eternal. I am to create Heaven on Earth, delivering us all from God's Curse, and deliver all mortals from the grave!!

You cannot stop me, Augustus! My soul shall continue on! Even if my body dies once more!
