War is a terrifying occurrence.
Sorrow and misery seep through the body and soul of those that experience it.
Countless innocents become victims and needless sacrifices are made.
No one desires war, but it can not simply be avoided.
As a result of two clashing interests, for the noble cause of both sides, War becomes inevitable.
Such was the nature of the conflict that drowned the entire world and destabilized all our affairs.
Countless victims on both ends weighed on our hearts as the terrible stench of blood and corpses lingered in the air.
It was a hellish landscape filled with nothing but broken hopes and despondency.
However, even in such a hopeless and despairing world, something beautiful formed.
—Love.
And with that emotion came hope.
It took some time for me to embrace my new reality, but I did.
Karlia was most likely dead—sacrificed in order to save me.
That was the only conclusion I could arrive at after waiting for so long, yet seeing no signs of her return.
