The Mirror Fifth Edition | Page 2

Foreword from the Editor-in-Chief Life is an honest game, sometimes brutally so. College applications, mountains of homework, and even terrorist attacks overseas take us away from the world that we wish we had and drag us into the world that actually exists. And yet, we still believe in a place where adventure lurks around every corner and there is always a happy ending. Fantasy is the world we wish we had, it is the daydreams in the middle of class, it is our hopes for the future. Our wildest dreams and deepest hopes, our world of fantasy, are real as we choose to make them. We invite you to join us in the fantastical experience within these pages, and we challenge you to make your fantasy real.
