In this chapter, Caius tries to explain that he's helping Caius because he thinks Caius is acting more like a man than a woman. Caius says that if Caius wants to be a woman, he can do so himself. He says that Caius needs to decide whether or not he wants to live or die. He tells Caius that he doesn't need Caius to collect his body after Caius has left, because witches will never leave corpses behind
