A History of War
Life is difficult enough for a Lirian soldier. Training for ten years, hunting evil deimos, solving crimes, facing powerful weilders, keeping the peace in a tension-filled world, each Lirian soldier has a lot on their plate. It doesn't become any easier if you have to deal with a dark past that looms at every corner. How will Lais Felix and Helen Song, two best friends with tragic pasts, handle life as soldiers while running from their past? Will they manage to escape their tragic beginnings? Or will the past finally catch up to them?

The night is dark, as if the shadows themselves have come to life. The pangs of the raven night clings to one's bones. It's one of those nights, when all instinct in all living beings tells them to run and hide from the darkness of the night. The moons themselves warn the stars , and the stars wane their light.
And yet despite the darkness, a figure moves. No, saying that is wrong. There had been seven figures moving and one unconscious. But now there is only the one living and the one unconscious. The floor is covered in a sea of crimson, pieces of limbs, guts, and brains are scattered here and here.
She always hated getting her hands bloody, but tonight she is willing to allow herself a leeway from the principle. This kind of crime, she hates the most. Just thinking of what happened to that poor girl makes her burn with rage. Humans really do not learn.
