One Need not Be a Hero to Make Heroic Choices.When villainy strikes, when harm threatens, when nature takes its brutal unsympathetic course, true heroes take their stand in an instant, without thought, and chose to act on the side of good, despite risk. Not because of glory, or for reward, but because it is right.Of course, some who are hailed as heroes are nothing of the sort, and what we perceive as villainy is at times simply misunderstanding.It takes a brave soul to seek out the difference.Realmscapes: Heroes of the Realm...With stories by Kathy Tyers, L. Jagi Lamplighter, James Chambers, Steve Rzasa, Gabrielle Pollack, Wayne Thomas Batson, Danielle Ackley-McPhail, Paul Regnier, Kerry Nietz, Teisha J. Priest, and Jeffrey Lyman.
