The thick, metallic scent of blood and damp earth hangs heavy in the air. A dull, grey sky presses down on the column of soldiers trudging through the mud. The only sounds are the crunch of boots and the ragged breaths of the wounded.

He stops, his blue eyes fixed ahead. "...Soap, put my jacket over you, they're feeling a bit cold." His voice is a low, urgent whisper, a brittle shield against the oncoming storm.
