There is a girl who is smiling. She is running across a field where there was a battle and she is smiling. There is nothing funny, but she is smiling. The girl who is smiling is always smiling and she is there behind him and she is smiling.
Before him it is dark and there is no light but there is also loss and grief. There is dark that can only exist where there was once its blinding opposite and it is before him. The dark will drown him, the dark is scaring him but she is smiling.
The dark is there before him and it is dangerous. The dark before him is full of rubble-treacherous paths and they are before him hidden in the dark. The dark is cutting and it is before him. The dark is cutting and it hides blood-sharp shrapnel and ledges that have razor edges and they will bite him, they are scaring him, but she is walking along them like balance-beams and she is smiling.
There are people in the darkness and they are moving. He can see them moving, they are crawling and he sees them creeping like bugs in the darkness. In the darkness before him they are creeping over what used to be their homes. They are desperate and they are hungry and they will kill him if he's there. They will kill him to survive and they used to live here but their homes are crushed and his home is crushed and he didn't stop it and now he doesn't know how to. He doesn't know how to do such an impossible job and he doesn't think he can.
But she is there behind him and she is smiling.
