Chapter
As It Is
As It Is opens with a voice that feels both hopeful and honest—someone who has dreamed of a better world but now sees value in the one already here. The speaker reflects on how much easier life might be if people were less greedy, more patient, or more forgiving of each other's flaws. Yet even with those thoughts, there’s no bitterness. Instead, there’s acceptance—a recognition that the world, with all its messiness and contradictions, still offers beauty. It may not be perfect, but it’s deeply…-

Chapter
A MARRIAGE
A Marriage begins not with the glow of joy, but with a tone that suggests obligation rather than bliss. The wedding of a farmer’s daughter, instead of bringing laughter and community cheer, becomes a restrained and bittersweet occasion. At the heart of the story lies a simple truth—what society calls a celebration often conceals silent sacrifice. The setting, meant to be the family's chapel, had to be changed at the last moment due to failed permissions, and this inconvenience becomes a metaphor for…-

A Ballad of Footmen
In this chapter titled A Ballad of Footmen, a somber meditation unfolds through poetic cadence and biting irony, pulling readers into the absurdity of war waged at the expense of reason and compassion. Rather than drums and marching orders, the tale begins with an old man clinging to the scent of roses as his city falls—a symbol of peace clashing against the thunder of conquest. The soldiers are not painted as heroes but as men swept into violence by the shallow promises of power and patriotic thrill.…-

Chapter
1777
In this chapter titled 1777, the reader is drawn into a world that pulses with sensory richness and quiet intensity. The story opens beneath a trumpet-vine arbour, where summer’s heat is not only felt but heard through the vivid flare of red blossoms. Their shapes resemble miniature brass instruments, each flaring open as if shouting in color. Amid this blaze, a woman leans forward, quill in hand, focused on the task of writing. The sun presses through the leaves, casting patches of molten light across…-
