Quote #4
Kassad felt the bloodlust build in him with turgid strength. (2.445)
Kassad's word choice during battle feels less like something out of a war novel, and more like something out of a Harlequin romance novel.
Quote #5
Kassad's sense of honor and sanity called out for him to stop the slaughter but his almost sexual bloodlust overpowered any objections. (2.471)
