Tricks in the Dark Evil does not need to be, ever in the shadow. In fact, it likes to walk, among us… best. It hides and tries to pretend, In plain sight! To be a friend, a lover with trusting arms, a kind person, that has a plan. If you do not see, all that is before you, you have not asked to be saved… If you do not know, what is before you, you will still, account… for your stupidity, your pride, and your… naivety. It is not the same as, unknowing. It is denial. The favorite joke, told among dark-lings that follow us home, if we do not cut… the string, of sin and deceit. Something we can not do… Alone.
