Comrades, These are the people who we may be cordial or at another's throats at any given time, by choice or circumstance. It is these people who may be our greatest allies, and our greatest burdens. Whether it be the spirits of our world, a great beast leading the charge, the bearers of our weight across the land, a paragon or champion, a beggar and a cheat, or a beloved arm of war, these comrades are for better, or for worse, useful. Eternal lonliness does not become us in the wilds, certainly, and perhaps less so in the crowded streets. May your own stand well, and durably so. Nininue
