A richly told story, full of powerful imagery. The people are thirsting for war, and even though they are told it is pointless, they still go forward.
Please remember to read and comment on the work of other members of the community, @warpedpoetic. As always, we ask everyone who publishes in The Ink Well to read and comment on at least two other stories for each one published. Thank you!
Yeah we fight wars in spite of knowing it will solve nothing.
