وبين ثنايا الدهر وحتى في احلك الايام, حين يكسو السواد شعر الارض والمدن, وتُغطى السماء بلون الليل الاسود الداكن, ويوشك اسياد الشر على الانتصار. حينها يرتقي ضوء الحق, وتنافس شمعة الامل رياح الشر وتتشبت بقلوب خير البشر, وتزداد شرارة كلما قست الحياة على ارواح اصحاب تلك الاجساد. ومنذ ان وجد الخلق لم يرتقي الشر نحو قمته ابدا ليحكم الارض, ومهما تكالبت قوى البشر والشياطين واتحدت لتنهي زمن الخير, لن تنتصر. واذا انتصرت فذلك يعني ان فرسان تلك الحقبة رضخوا لليأس واستسلموا لظلمات قلوبهم, ولم يسلوا سيوفهم بوجه الظالم المطلق, حينها لا تبتأسوا فقد استحقوا ما حل بهم.

Can a natural killer learn to be human again? Regan's unique talent for murder makes her a perfect assassin. After a lethal encounter leaves her broken body washed up on a beach, she finds herself adopted by a group of teenage bodyguards. She doesn't intend to stay for long, but soon Regan finds herself faced with a choice: become a hero or stay a villain? *** The boy played with the flat brim of the cap in his hands and looked around the room. He sat back in his chair, trying to look casual, but the heel of his hi-top sneaker drummed rapidly on the concrete floor. Regan sat opposite him with her legs crossed and her hands folded on her tartan skirt. She watched him without a word and brushed a strand of blue-dyed hair behind her ear. Somehow this seemed to unsettle him more. 'Calm down,' she said. 'It's just murder.' *** Author's Note: Darkness Girl: Trickster God is represented by Louise Fury from The Bent Agency. P.S. The epic cover was made by Paul Kopetko (you can stalk him at paulkopetko.com). Enjoy!
