Magic floats in the air, in my pores and inside of my lungs. The essence of magic, full of love, glowing gold. However, there's also danger with magic and evil towards the one wielding such power. One slip up, one simple mistake, and they burn you. The stronger the mage, the harder they fall, and when they fall, it comes noticed.In books, when people think of mages - of people wielding magic, harsh and fierce, they resemble gods and goddesses. They think of them as beautiful creatures, strong and smart. But when magic is brought within the world, all perception changes. We are not beautiful, intelligent and brave. We aren't gods and goddesses. We are the devil's workers. Ordinary-Humans look at us with disgust. They see us as demons. Disgusting, evil creatures of the night sent to destroy all humankind.However, mages have laws to abide by. Never harm an Ordinary-Human. Never use magic in a harmful way towards another Ordinary-Human - Or mage. Do not interfere in A Mages War.And that is precisely what I had done.

This discourse focuses on the different concepts of apathy that appear in literature. Not only characterizations of apathetic protagonists, but also abstract concepts of apathy help to explore this special topic. Several important literary works from all sorts of genres function as examples to explain these concepts. Shakespeare’s ‘Hamlet’, ‘Camus’ ‘The Stranger’, Palahniuk’s ‘Fight Club’, Süskind’s ‘Perfume’, and Dick’s ‘Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep?’ are only few of many literary works which are examined under the aspect of apathy in this study. Apathy is the lack of any kind of emotion. As emotions are essential to the conception of the human being, many approaches to understand this phenomenon have been made. The fields of psychology and biology are only two of several sciences which try to explain this phenomenon of alexithymia. But, whereas the core and origin of this human condition are still being analyzed, literature has been using the theme of apathy in several different ways. How this theme is used and which different concepts of apathy exist, will be examined in this discourse.

Elias has no desires. It wouldn't be natural. Until a woman, Aloisa, walks into his lab at the hospital and unfamiliar cravings overpower him. Aloisa's husband, Jordan, is convinced that the monetary reward for becoming a changeling will be enough for Aloisa to live lavishly. Against her wishes, he leaves. She knows why; she refuses to let him disappear. She would much prefer love to money. In pursuit of Jordan and freedom, Aloisa and Elias are both on the run from the government.

Mental illness is as serious, if not more, when compared to any physical ailment – but society tends to look at one with sympathy and the other as a weakness. Dr. Preeti Pandit, a practicing psychotherapist, seeks to promote a better understanding of mental illness in this book. She seeks to answer questions such as: How do experiences in childhood form a foundation for you later in life? What can you do to move past negative experiences from long ago? How can you overcome your most troubling fears? How does an imbalance in relationships create long-lasting impact on your psyche? The author’s ultimate purpose is to showcase that when someone is afflicted with mental illness, there are reasons why. Coming to terms with those reasons can help individuals confront bottled-up feelings and move forward to achieve their life purpose. Join the author and a fascinating cast of characters as they go on a roller-coaster journey of intrigue, disbelief, and the unexpected – and leave with a greater awareness of the issues surrounding mental illness.
