  Summary

  I am sorry that I have to skip the time. I could not say what happened. Maybe God will.
  ---

  Various recollections from the memories of an old and decrepit marine who once was. Based off of stories told to me and following Tyla Álvarez, a "devil doc" (medic), the story explores how war changes a person psychologically, pushing them to their breaking point.
