Šurrû. Qabassu. Qatû. Possessed entirely by Gilgamesh, taken up by him, there is nothing beyond him, no sensation, no reality. Dorian is consumed completely by the moment, and he welcomes his own devouring.
"Expecto patronum."
The light is far beyond what Dorian could do on his own; it is charged with Gilgamesh's force, with the strength of his will amplified in the empty vessel of Dorian Gray. There is the roar from that light, a proud call as heavy paws bound in circles through the air—
But it is not the only light here. Where once Dorian felt a terrible burning, now there is a warmth glow. Šurrû. Qabassu. Qatû. The beginning. The middle. The end. It is everything, all experience, all pleasure, and still he wants more and more and more.
If another had taken hold of Dorian in this way, it would have faltered. The power would not have been Dorian's happiness. The wish would not have been Dorian's wish. Šurrû. Qabassu. Qatû. Filled up with Gilgamesh's power, Dorian expresses his own will. I want it. Such is the panther that comes to rest at Dorian's feet: a creature of desire, always craving, pushing, seeking out. Never satisfied.
