              Neifile warns against “presumption”:
              acting like you know more than others

              and pitting yourself against everyone
              and the laws of Nature. Love is one
              of those things that defies wisdom,
              knowledge or outside pressure. Her

              story, therefore, will be about a woman
              who tried to outwit Love and lost it all.
