D: No. P: Then you won’t know what it’s like. Lucky you. I was a paramedic, served also as surgeon. When orders were to stay at base, it was rather normal: mostly sewing wounds, extracting bullets or fragments... broken arms or legs from time to time. We had good conditions to operate someone if needed, comparing to other units. The worse things were taking place in towns, when we had to go to civilians and others. D: All the local people. P: Exactly. Now, let’s say you’ve been there, serving as a front soldier. You were wounded and taken to field hospital. A dirty place between ruins, a dangerous one since we were in range of enemy mortars. They also carried other people there, and now you’re sitting on chair next to your enemy that has shot you half hour ago. That guy is also injured, and even if he was our enemy, we had to take and cure him before any trial can be started. If his squad took him before us, he could come back and shoot one of our soldiers again. We couldn’t simply kill him, because life is a life. We aren’t animals, even if our enemies were. D: I understand. For how long did you serve there? P: Two and a half year. And I will never know what was the point of all of it, I mean war. Go, get injured, come back, go again... and this loop can be broken only by peace, retreat, or death. Neither of sides wanted peace, nobody could retreat... so only one option is left. ~~~ Title: Circle of Devouring Track number: 19/28 Cat. no/release title: SAR-005 Onto Brink Genre(s)/BPM: Speedcore/Splittercore 620BPM Used scale(s): F# Superlocrian bb7 Module: PTSD/Noon Background image: YT playlist: Netlabel: Speedcore Abyss Records Release/download link:
