Conspire with me to rebel against the world
If you don’t live by convention, you have to find another way. If you don’t believe in God, you have to make your own decisions. Unfortunately, most mortals have the courage and lack of wisdom. If they are not careful, they will go astray and become lunatics.

Of course, the most important thing was the leader of this group of crazy girls. Sociopath Lisa. She's charismatic, wild, and the queen of lunatics. She became Susanna's best friend.
