Series of Loss

As Elisa walked through the alley, she couldn't help but feel a heavy sense of despair weighing down on her. Two months after the South's victory... The news of the North's defeat had spread like wildfire, and the reality of the situation was starting to sink in for the people of the South. The once vibrant and bustling streets were now filled with mournful faces, and the sound of laughter and chatter had been replaced by hushed whispers and sobs.

Elisa made her way to the local tavern, hoping to find some solace among her fellow citizens. However, as she stepped inside, she was met with the same sense of despair that had been plaguing her all day. The usual lively atmosphere had been replaced by a heavy silence, broken only by the occasional sniffle or sob from one of the patrons.
