The rest who were, despite everything, prone to tempers and inexperience.
Despite everything, too many of the rest were still children. And that was what made Hallelujah different- he was composed and easy to talk to, in a way that even the soldiers here weren’t.
When he had asked her to stay behind she had no qualms going along with it; now, handed the box heavy and warm, she's surprised and delighted. And what manner of thing is inside ....?]
