->"Human law and vampire law are not one and the same. Humans have no jurisdiction over us."
->"Why?" I'd asked.
->"Because humans and vampyres are not the same. There are, indeed, more of them than us, but [[TheBeautifulElite we few]] hold greater wealth and power as individuals than they can ever hope to attain. We are stronger, smarter, more talented, and more beautiful. Without vampyres, their world would be nothing more than a snuffed candle."

-> Okay, the first thing I noticed was that everyone who had a [[MarkedChange solid vampyre tattoo]] was incredibly good-looking. I mean, it was totally insane. Yes, I knew that vampyres were attractive. Everyone knew that. The most successful actors and actresses in the world were vampyres. They were also dancers and musicians, authors and singers. Vampyres dominated the arts, which is one reason they had so much money- and also one reason (of many) that the [[StrawmanPolitical People of Faith]] considered them selfish and immoral. ''But really, they're just jealous that they're not as good looking.'' The People of Faith would go see their movies, plays, concerts, buy their books and their art, but at the same time they'd talk about them and look down on them, and God knows they'd never, ever mix with them.

-> Okay, the kids weren't as gorgeous as the adults. Sure, they were nice-looking- interesting actually, with their crescent moon outlines, and their uniforms that looked more like runway designs than school clothes- but they didn't have the glossy, inhumanly attractive light that radiated from inside each of the adult vampyres.
