.. a character named "Sofia" in Nikita Herzegovenia's "Crusade and Noteriety".. Sofia sees society represented by a benzene molecule.. Sofia is obsessed with benzene, with the benzene molecule configuration as a template for the inward power and profundity of society itself...

.... Sofia may have adopted finally the last name, "Verhoensky", at long last.. when she masterminded the assassination of Alexander II... the Russian Czar who had abolished serfdom in Russia.. to Sofia, "Verhoensky" meant assassination... and Sofia Verhoensky had a sense in herself of being herself being the Alpha and Omega of Assassins in history.. that history had reached its climax and apex in Sofia Verhoensky..

   .... it's somehow always a question of Sofia's influence over the mind and psyche of Talia al Ghul.. whether their is a charm and sensual allure to Sophia.. whether as she leads a charmed life, Sophia does.. but some would say unkindly that Sofia Verhoensky's mind-influence over Talia al Ghul is more .. like electromagnetism.. like an electronic influence.. like Sofia Verhoenksy would take an Ace of hearts out of a deck of cards and insert it in Talia's hair, in her raven hair.. and so Sofia's electric or electronic influence over Talia's psyche would be complete...
