@koshka AHHH, LOVE IT!!!!!

Here’s a try at Seb’s royalcore aesthetic… A little messy, but ya know 😋
“Everything is a mountain”
It’s been awhile since I’ve shared some writing here! Being in a writing camp this month has forced me to actually write words (lol) Here’s my prologue! (Same story with Tauren and Lesli)
The young soldier trudges through layers of ash mud. It saturates his worn boots, soaking through his wool socks. He slips his hand out of his gloves, pushing it under his sweaty respirator to warm it under his breath. He skirts the edge of the bomb crater from a few days ago.
“Seargent!!” His raspy cry echoes through the broken landscape, barely reaching over the cackling flames surrounding him. “I know you’re—” His voice breaks into a sigh as he bends down, defeated.
“Rando?” A croaky voice breaks from behind one of the nearby bushes, the only one not eaten away by flames.
The young soldier runs to his sergeant’s side. “We got to get you up—we need you at the front—common you can do this—” he tugs at the mans uniform, pulling him out from under the bush.
“You need me, I don’t have anything left.”
“If we just fight a little bit longer we might win—it’s close but—”
“LOOK AT WHAT’S LEFT!!” The older soldiers’ eyes flash with fear. “No one cares about winning anymore. If anyone survives this… we’ve won.”
The young soldier backs away from his sergeant as he sinks towards the ground, meshing with the despairing ashen floor.
Born a soldier, lived a soldier, died a soldier.
We live for the fight.
It’s the story of every life on earth.
So how do we break the cycle… before it’s too late?
“Tell me what to do!” The young soldier grabs his superiors’ shoulders, shaking him hard to wake him from his pleasent daze. “How do we end this?”
The older soldier flutters open his eyes again, focusing on the boys face. “Take them to the bunker.”
“But we haven’t lost yet! There’s a war to fight—”
“—And who to fight it?! 200 soldiers?”
“You’re missing the point. I don’t care which side wins anymore, and you shouldn’t either. There are bigger concerns at this point.”
“Get them underground before it’s too late.”
He nods, eyes glazing over. “C’mon.” He tugs at the shoulder of his superior’s uniform, trying to ease him to his feet.
“Leave me…” The older soldier falls limply back to the ground. “There’s more important things.” His voice remains calm and steady, a contrast to the whirling ash and burning landscape.
The young soldier stands for a moment, watching as the vibrant life fleets from his commanders’ eyes. He shudders, the lonely ice-cold air biting through a rip in his sleeve. He runs away to gather the rest, tripping over mangled drones and war equipment. Cold air chills his throat as it speeds through his respirator and over his chapped lips. The soldier runs as fast as his legs will carry him, bringing in the remaining population, scattered over the west hills.
***
The bunker is filled with people, but not with life. Some weep, huddled in a corner by themselves.
A chance at humanity, that’s what we are. All it would take is a single raid to destroy us all. Unprepared as we were, we waited. They never came for us. Perhaps they came to the same conclusion, that the survival of humanity was more important than the hate we fought for. That people were worth more than the vengeance we sought.
The soldier sits next to one of his comrades, pulling his knees up to his chest.
This war started before I was born. I don’t think anyone anticipated it lasting this long… or leaving our world in such shambles.
The boy stands, joining his comrades in a circle. They crowd around as he reaches for a flask at the side of his backpack, the one surviving officer doing the same.
And what about us? The soldiers on the ground, pilots in the air and at the station, the robotics team forced to use their skills for warfare, and the simple farmers providing food through a crisis? Oh, nobody cared about us. We were just an afterthought.
“Cheers to the west hills bunker!” He clanks his flask with the other officers while the crowd cheers.
But we’ll make the best of it, eh?

@mineralizedwritings You’re welcome!!! 💕💕 @godlyfantasy12 @smiley @lightoverdarkness6 @koshka @elishavet-pidyon @esther-c @felicity @starshiness @anyone-else-idk-lol-XD
Soooooo….I wanna introduce y’all to a new side character in my current main WIP!!!!!
Wilhelm Müller, a 26-year-old doctor in the SS, chose to join the SS because he refused to wait to be drafted into the Wehrmacht, where he would likely have to kill people, even with his doctorate.
He seems to have nothing to fear…but the truth is that his wife is Russian, one of the many people groups that the Nazis seek to kill.
He’s a kindhearted soul that believes in true justice, equality, and refuses to ever hurt a single person intentionally. Everyone is equal in his eyes.
His childhood wasn’t easy, having an unhealthy, often ill mother, and no father in the home…
…but his oldest brother Fin took care of everything.
The third youngest in the Müller family, Wilhelm has always tried to protect his younger sister and brother, and has always looked up to his older sister and three older brothers, especially Fin.
He hates war, and wishes that bloodshed was not a reality, but as a Christian, he knows it is the result of sin entering the world.
He wishes to help protect his wife and their child she carries, and thus joins the Violet Iris resistance group…but when someone finds out that Fin was his oldest brother…he may just have to flee to save his life.
@freedomwriter76
Awwwwwwwww I loveeeeeeee it!!!!!!!!!
Poor guy
Do me a favor…. Tell Cress I meant it
-Thorne@freedomwriter76
Ahhh! Fin has so many siblings! (Not exactly mad about Fin, but not happy either)
You are keeping her safe, right?… Right?
