| Quotes |
"Well, officially the case was closed. They never found Anderson or Pepe, although I did hear that Pepe was working in a supermarket downstate. Nanautzin was dormant again, and I urge that he be destroyed. Without his fifth sacrifice, will he still rise up, fifty-two years from now? The police who found me didn't understand what I was talking about. They felt that Nanautzin was a valuable museum piece and nothing more – just dead antiquity. Well, all I know, is I won't be around fifty years from now for the millennium. Will you?"
