“Avec quelque spontanéité que nous obéissions à la voix qui nous dicte cette abnégation, nous sentons bien qu'elle nous parle sur un ton impératif qui n'est pas celui de l'instinct. C'est pourquoi, quoiqu'elle se fasse entendre à l'intérieur de nos consciences, nous ne pouvons sans contradiction la regarder comme nôtre. Mais nous l'aliénons, comme nous faisons pour nos sensations; nous la projetons au dehors, nous la rapportons à un être que nous concevons comme extérieur et supérieur à nous, puisqu'il nous commande et que nous nous conformons à ses injonctions. Naturellement, tout ce qui nous paraît venir de la même origine participe au même caractère. C'est ainsi que nous avons été nécessités à imaginer un monde au-dessus de celui-ci et à le peupler de réalités d'une autre nature.”

“Lok’tar ogar!” The daemon holding me pulled my head back, exposing my throat. “Victory or death,” I retorted at my captor hoarsely. “For the Horde. And for the record, shouting World of Warcraft battle cries kind of kills the whole ‘imminent death’ expectation.” The daemon paused. “What server are you on?” he demanded. “Blackhand.” “Righteous. Guild?” I couldn’t imagine what the hell that mattered at this point, but it was keeping me alive so that was a bonus. I’d gladly spit out the rest of my Warcraft stats if it bought me a few more minutes. “Yeah,” I coughed. “ElfhunterBitches.” He blinked and then grinned, tapping himself on the chest. “No shit. I’m TartBarbie. Undead DeathKnight.” I stared at him. “TB? Seriously? I’m Baconator. Blelf Warlock. You did a hell of a job tanking on that raid the other night.” “Yeah, I am pretty awesome.” He glanced over his shoulder, releasing me. “Look, if I’d known it was you, I’d never have agreed to this. Go on.” He nudged me with a leather boot. “I’ll tell them you got away.” I didn’t have to be told twice. “Thanks,” I said softly. “I’ll make it up to you, somehow.” “No worries.” He winked. “See you next Thursday.”

“I'm Level Eighty on Warcraft." The clerk was stunned. "You're Level Eighty?! Are you Horde, or Alliance?" "What, are you kidding me? I'm Horde, of course! I'm a Level Eighty Undead Priestess. What Guild are you in?" "I'm a Horde Blood Elf Paladin. Level 30. I'm in the Blood Roses Guild." "Have you ever seen a 'Spectral Tiger' loot card? I bet you never have." The museum clerk thought about her situation. The psychic pressure was mounting on her. She was in a state of moral anguish. "Look, Signora, I'd love to help your American clients there... But if my director knew I was Warcrafting here at work, she'd kill me! Besides, you don't have any 'Spectral Tiger' in your purse, I bet.”
