AKASHA in QUEEN OF THE DAMNED (2002)

[levamplestat]

The spirit who inhabits her animates us all. Destroy the host, you destroy the power. The young die first; the old wither slowly; the eldest perhaps would go last. But she is the Queen of the Damned, and the Damned can't live without her.

Jesse Reeves in Queen of the Damned (2002)

This one, named Jesse, had been made by Maharet. This one was an actual human descendant of the woman; and now she had become the fledging of her ancient mother. The scope of it astonished him and frightened him slightly. The blood racing through the young one's veins had potency that was unimaginable to Marius. She was absolutely without thirst; yet she wasn't even really dead. — Anne Rice, Queen of the Damned

But you see, I still don't really fully understand what happened. I don't know whether or not it was a tragedy, or merely a meaningless venture.
