    oughh the fact that he was quite young and had to go through All That makes it even sadder

    “Often frowning” i can’t wait for abijah to bring out that smile of his 🥲

      I agree, I feel sorry for him. Quite young for his regiment (and he joined the army aged only 15, which was pretty unusual).

      Oh, Abijah shall draw forth many smiles. Like a golden retriever and the saddest cat at the shelter.
