As the title says, come along and take a walk with me.
People say they know darkness. They say they've dwelt within it's comforting shadows all their lifes. They say they are very well, the darkness and everything that corrisponds with it. Then, why do they proclaim they were pushed to far? Pushed over the edge and forced to do stuff they don't wish to do? That's not Darkness. That's not the abyss of shadows inwhich everything seems to cower from.
No. Rather it's the scum that floats to the top. The waste that it does not need or want. That's all it is. Those whom have truely dwelled within the oblivion of shadows know very well..you can never push darkness to far. Infact, you can't push it at all. It may retreat a bit, but always comes back, further and further it creeps foreward until it very well consumes you. And then you see the truth. It's not evil. Yet it's not good. It's simply there. It never bends, it never fully withdraws and never fully advances.
All it does is sit there, staring right back at you oh so placidly. It doesn't over-react. It doesn't get "surprised" by what's going on about it. Why? It knows already. Knows what truths and lies are floating around, what's the real truth and what's a lie posing as the truth. That's all. For those of you whom know me, or just recently have met me. You know it's true. It's what spawned the saying "If you stare off into the abyss, the abyss stares right back at you." That's all it does.
Yet; there are those rare times. Those infinite rare moments inwhich even the darkness quirks a brow at ones actions and shakes it's head before stepping back. Removing it's gentle embracement of shadows. What for? That being has overstepped it's boundaries. Took upon itself that was never ment to be released. So, the darkness casts it forth into the light. For everyone and thing to see it's true form.
A word of advice: Be care what you do. You may believe your doing it to destroy something or to very well prove yourself right, when in turn...all your doing is tying your own noose for your own destruction. Always tread lightly and never stomp on thinned ice. It never comes out to how you expect it to.

"When one does not fear death no longer, one does not fear the darkness of the Oblivion. Rather cowering in fear, we open our arms to embrace it, whilst laughing as if it was a long lost comrade.
We be the children of fate and destiny. We are the fateless. We do not fear death, Death fears -us-."
