Quote by Cassandra Clare

Luke moved as silently as fog, while Maryse's heels sounded like gunshots on the marble floor. Clary wondered if Isabelle's propensity for unsuitable footwear was genetic.

Luke moved as silently as fog, while Maryse's heels sounded

Summary

This quote contrasts the different ways Luke and Maryse move, emphasizing their distinct personalities. Luke is described as moving silently "like fog," suggesting stealth and grace. On the other hand, Maryse's loud footsteps are compared to "gunshots," illustrating her strong and assertive nature. Clary also ponders if Isabelle, who is known for wearing impractical shoes, inherited this trait from her mother. The quote thus highlights the characters' individual characteristics by drawing attention to their contrasting manners of movement.
