if the current administration and military elite does not change its ways ... perhaps we will be stuck into this limbo for a while .
( Adam drank the other remaining half of his cocktail
cont.
missing when they found me , unconscious under a pile of rubble .
About my other three limbs ... well , it was my own decision ;
the flesh is weak - well , my own flesh was , at least .
I swore to myself that I wouldn't have allowed another colleague to die .

You do not drink much , huh ?
Well , that will probably change from now on .

the bar was inside a modest building ,
the entrance half-hidden in an alley :
the kind of place one chooses for the peace it is shrouded in .
A nod of Adam's head towards the owner was enough ,

Good ;
this means that while we are together , the chances of someone disturbing our quiet are drastically lower .
( Adam did not comment on her proclamation of friendship ,
however he didn't outright refuse either . )

What you ask for is of no small value ;
stories from that time carry ... inevitable death and suffering with them .
Those days are stained with the blood of the heroes who fought for us .
