Summary
War is familiar—she is a tongue seared on a meal that has been cooked slowly over fire, an ache in an arm which has held an iron pail of iced water for hours on end, callouses on the fingers of a bard. She breathes into the ears of every human that roams earth’s battered, beaten ground, whispers of Death and sickness and depression, of staring down at a corpse or a friend and not being able to tell the difference. There is not a soul, alive or dead, that does not know of War and the burden which trails her wherever she goes.
War is familiar, and Phil knows her better than anyone. --In his effort to outrun the horrors of War, Phil chooses to fall from his role as an angel of Death, and finds himself forming a family. Unfortunately, escaping War is not as easy as he had first thought.
