Quote #10
"And he shall go on bleeding until I choose to stop it." Cassandra looked from Lizzie Rose to Parsefall. "You see how I avenge you, my children? You see how great my power is? This man will never harm you again. He is my puppet." She raised her arms, spreading her fingers as if manipulating strings. "See? I can make him bleed, and I can make him dance." (44.38)
The kids might hate Grisini and want him gone, but that doesn't mean that they want to watch him cruelly tortured before their eyes. Cassandra thinks she's doing them a favor, but Lizzie Rose steps in to stop her—she doesn't want to be responsible for this bloody scene.
