The dark is generous.
Its first gift is concealment: our true faces lie in the dark beneath our skins, our true hearts remain shadowed deeper still. But the greatest concealment lies not in protecting our secret truths, but in hiding from us the truths of others.
The dark protects us from what we dare not know.
Its second gift is in comforting illusion: the ease of gentle dreams in night's embrace, the beauty that imagination brings to what would repel in day's harsh light. But the greatest of its comforts is the illusion that the dark is temporary: that every night brings a new day. Because it is the day that is temporary.
Day is the illusion.
Its third gift is the light itself: as days are defined by the nights that divide them, as stars are defined by the infinite black through which they wheel, the dark embraces the light, and brings it forth from the center of its own self.
With each victory of the light, it is the dark that wins.

I carry a bow, but it's merely for pulling single critters out of packs that would devour me whole if I were to wade into them. I like the "up close and personal" aspect of my class.
And being that up close can literally be a rush. There have been several times when my heart rate has noticably gone up while killing players from the Horde side.
You should come join us sometime!
Have a good weekend, whatever it is you end up doing.
