Darkness [u]is[/u] a sanctuary, for cowards. Those who wallow in the darkness in fear of the light have never been shown true light, and never will unless they seek it for themselves, for they wander the same twilight as those who are misguided enough to attack one who could be saved.

I will not deny that there [u]will always be[/u] some who claim to stand on the side of light, but do not truly embrace its ways and will try to kill those who are in the darkness. The truth of that is however, that they belong to the twilight between light and dark, and will never be able to commit to one side due to the illusion they have created for themselves. If those who hide in the darkness would come forward and embrace true light, the light would accept and forgive them that they would be reborn anew, bright as a star.

The darkness protects them? Instead of constant judgement from others, the 'solitary reflection' you force upon them causes them to judge themselves! Those who are trapped by their fears or their misguided beliefs in the darkness have no friend other than the light to show them hope. Those who judge themselves often find that they no longer have a will to live, and are helpless to the outcome of this decision because the darkness kept them from seeing the way back, the path to salvation lit by the light that it may shine through and save those who have not been entirely tainted by your darkness. 

'Slave of the light' Haha, you think me a slave? I am not like you, I bear my light willingly for all to see! I am my own champion, and will never regret nor rescind the mercy granted unto thee. It is a gift of the light, a courage unshakable by your petty threats. I welcome your attempts, for I shall not fall until my purpose is served. 

Let us see if your resolve can extend past the limits of what you see as your reality. 
You can't lie to yourself forever, captive of the dark.
