Summary

This quote contrasts the behavior of a coward and a heroine in the face of danger. The coward, driven by fear, will flee from danger and strike back when they have the advantage of darkness or secrecy. On the other hand, the heroine, driven by bravery, will dare to confront the darkness head-on, fully aware that the coward is lurking and ready to attack. This quote highlights the contrasting mindsets and actions of these two archetypes, suggesting that true courage lies in facing adversity directly, even when the outcome is uncertain.
