Town With A Dark Secret
Silent Hill has enough dark secrets for 20 small towns. : killing of Native Americans in an inquisition, witch burning, plague, torture, secret prisons, child abuse, rape, drug dealing, demons, ghosts, kidnapping, orphans, child sacrifices, cults, serial killers, ritual murders, multiple conspiracies, animal abuse, two evil parallel dimensions, and at least three dark gods - one of which supposedly used to be nice before all of the above drove it nuts.
EITHER YOU EMBRACE THE DARKNESS OR BE OVERCOME BY THE DARKNESS.
Darkness seems to just drop on you or you fall into it.
Light would just blast you from any direction and off you go, through walls, a blur of a lifetime.
Then there is that grey haze you could be STUCK IN with that dull humming of stagnation, no direction whatsoever.
All these have one feeling in common: nausea.
Shadow Demon Aomi. - drawn in 2004.
there are cold dark deaths that certain people deserve to experience
Actually, we ARE from the Abyss and you lost the staring contest.
So what's YOUR excuse?
And they kept running in the darkness straight to Nowhere.
No one needed the light
as there was no one there.
people once believed that when someone dies a crow carries their soul to the land of the dead but sometimes, something so bad happens that a terrible sadness is carried with it and the soul can't rest Then sometimes, just sometimes the crow can bring that soul back to put the wrong things right

Black
Black
Etymology: Window 囱 darkened by fire 火= darkened window
There are few surprises in associations for the color black in the Chinese language. Wicked, sinister, and secret things are all affiliated with the color black: 黑社会 (black + society = ‘the Underworld’), 黑交易 (black + transaction = ‘a shady business deal’). Also, like most modern tongues, black is the color of illicit affairs in Chinese: the ‘black hand group’ (黑手党) is the Mafia, ‘black goods’ (黑货) are contraband, and, of course, there’s the ‘black market’ (黑市).

I see them shadows in the dark.
In the darkness there is this bizarre deafening roar that comes with the absolute silence. It also embraces you, you are held in the arms of darkness, gentle touches as you are caressed, lulling you to release yourself to it if you so choose. You are never alone in the abyss. You are not even alone in the silence. You can't see or hear this when in the light, you can't even feel it. So return to the shadows, your faith in them will sustain you yet do not shun the light or you will not know the comfort of the abyss at all.
