Blindfold

What if? A question that many people find themselves asking. What if someone read Lord of The Rings instead of Harry Potter? Would they be attempting to learn Elvish instead of learning magic spells?

Maybe Azure has a point...I really need to stop saying things like that… 5 minutes after her landing, Rei found herself sitting against the trunk of a tree, still yawning from her drowsiness. Blindfold still own and weapons at her side, she did her best to conceal her presence. Well, she at least hoped nobody would notice the countless disintegrating Grimm bodies around her.

Every day, the human brain undergoes new experiences. New things are learned, connections are made, and synapses occur. The body relies on the brain to understand one’s surroundings, but the brain also relies on the body, as the senses are needed in order to gather information.

There have been a variety of studies on what happens to the brain as a result of a missing

they headed out to become husband and wife. They knew Tilly could do nothing once their nuptials took place. “What are you up to, Pete?” Melissa asked when Pete walked her to his car. He was grinning like a Cheshire cat. “Oh, nothing, but I must blindfold you, so turn around.” Pete gently tied a blue bandana around Melissa’s eyes. “No peeking. I have a surprise for you.” Melissa sat quietly, listening to the jazz music playing softly as he drove her to the far end of the pier. Pete parked the car

As I sit, the sweat on my forehead accumulates in the dread of his arrival. The cloth on my face is very heavy and very thick. It reminds me of the wool on my mom’s coat.

In an instant, Laticus wakes up immediately alarmed, with a heart pumping madly. “Where, where, where?!” Laticus screams.

“blind” to what is going on around him. He also says, “if you want your audience to know something important about your character (or the work at large), introduce it early” (213). In “Battle Royal” the narrator is at one point blindfolded. The blindfold is a symbol of blindness. Ellison introduced this symbol very first, just as Foster said an author would do to get the reader's attention. The so called “invisible” man says, “Looking up front, I saw attendants in white jackets rolling the portable
