Summary:

Raised in a proud nation, Yves Bonaparte yearns to fight under its banner, for the glory of France. He marches among the soldiers and chants with them, imagining war to be what he subconsciously knows it not to be. That was before he encountered Felix. The looming figure around the fire of the encampment. The blank, expressionless face, the silence that revealed everything. Not a soldier, but a man.
