What brought you to want to lurk within the shadows? Why is it you want to hide from others? Is it the shadows or yourself that others are afraid of? Perhaps you are an assassin and you work best in the shadows. Whatever the reason you have ended up in the darkness you still have the choice to use this for good or evil purposes, maybe just for personal gain. What will you do within the shadows?
