User:JarlaxleArtemis/Archive I
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
My full name is Jeremy David Hanson. I am a student from Lakewood, California.
I created my user name from a combination of Jarlaxle and Artemis Entreri—both of whom are characters in the Forgotten Realms universe and are created by the author R.A. Salvatore. I am a huge fan of the Forgotten Realms and the legendary dark elf Drizzt Do'Urden. I am also an avid fan of the Final Fantasy and Xenosaga videogames.
I first became a Wikipedian on December 30, 2004. One can contact me by e-mail or MSN Messenger at jarlaxleartemis@msn.com or by AOL Instant Messenger (jeremydhanson).

- Sam: It's all wrong. By rights we shouldn't even be here. But we are. It's like in the great stories, Mr. Frodo. The ones that really mattered. Full of darkness and danger they were. And sometimes you didn’t want to know the end… because how could the end be happy? How could the world go back to the way it was when so much bad had happened? But in the end, it’s only a passing thing… this shadow. Even darkness must pass. A new day will come. And when the sun shines, it will shine out the clearer. Those were the stories that stayed with you… that meant something. Even if you were too small to understand why. But I think, Mr. Frodo, I do understand. I know now. Folk in those stories had lots of chances of turning back, only they didn’t. They kept going… because they were holding on to something.
- Frodo: What are we holding on to, Sam?
- Sam: That there’s some good in this world, Mr. Frodo. And it’s worth fighting for.
