"Death?"
"No, I don't want to die."
"What to die for."
"... The whole leg was rotten, maggots crawled into my intestines... The blood was drained..."
"Why are you so bloody on the battlefield, why are your country ruined and your family ruined, why do you die without leaving your eyes open?"
Blood, dried blood, fresh blood, endless blood, washed by water and absorbed by soil.
Bone, severed bone, broken bone.
Meat, rotting meat.
She took her first breath and opened her eyes.
