Death's Shadow~~~

"The Shadow's not a demon.... Its a force that somehow acquired consciousness..."

"...Like gravity. Imagine if gravity developed a mind, created a body and become and actual entity - Gravity with a capital G, intelligent like us, able to think and plan..."

"...But its not gravity. Its an altogether different force. More sinister. Inescapable. Every living being's final companion..."

"...The Shadow is an ancient beyond understanding... Its as old as life. It doesn't have an actual name. It never needed one. But we've given it a title. The demons have too. It's the darkness when a light is quenched, the silence when a sound fades. it takes the final breath from the smallest insect and the mightiest king. It knows us all, stalk us all, and in the end claims us all."

"The Shadow is Death"


Lines from Darren Shan's latest book on the Demonata Series; Death's Shadow . His not that great of a writer but his imagination is definitely something to be impressed of.

~Because I could not stop for Death,
He kindly stopped for me.
The Carriage held but just ourselves
And Immortality~
