"Law of the Jungle" Full Passage (interesting read)
I searched for the full passage, and it really caught my attention. Take a look:
[quote]NOW this is the law of the jungle, as old and as true as the sky,
And the wolf that shall keep it may prosper, but the wolf that shall break it must die.
As the creeper that girdles the tree trunk, the law runneth forward and back;
For the strength of the pack is the wolf, and the strength of the wolf is the pack.
Wash daily from nose tip to tail tip; drink deeply, but never too deep;
And remember the night is for hunting and forget not the day is for sleep.
The jackal may follow the tiger, but, cub, when thy whiskers are grown,
Remember the wolf is a hunter—go forth and get food of thy own.
Keep peace with the lords of the jungle, the tiger, the panther, the bear;
And trouble not Hathi the Silent, and mock not the boar in his lair.
When pack meets with pack in the jungle, and neither will go from the trail,
Lie down till the leaders have spoken; it may be fair words shall prevail.
When ye fight with a wolf of the pack ye must fight him alone and afar,
Lest others take part in the quarrel and the pack is diminished by war.[/quote]
I have a feeling this perfectly summarizes the experience we're about to dive into. What do you think?

2 Replies[quote] For the strength of the pack is the wolf, and the strength of the wolf is the pack.[/quote] Lots of stuff I have to say, I'll first start with this: Do you guys remember the poems that were released once a day for a week? This trailer as well as those 7 poems weren't just simple storytelling. They were[b] far more[/b] in value to the story that Destiny will tell, as well sharing true wisdom. If this the caliber of expression that isn't in game, I am in love with this. The quote above is a saying that I can put in a different light for you. The pack is this whole universe, all that exists. The wolf is one, the single person each of us are. What it basically states is this: All is one, and one is all. This universe is a fractal, the link at the top is a good explanation. But in this case it can just be taken as wolf & pack, but it means more. So yeah, if this is the beautiful depth that will be coming from Bungie, [b]I love all of this.[/b]
