"Vel couldn’t remember the sun, and the last time he’d seen the naked sky it had been thick with FPVs."

T.H.’s cave was dark, and the air smelled damp. The walls were brick and peeling paint...

“I’m no fucking saint either, Vel. I signed up for the war, remember? People like you and I? This is what we’re meant for."

“That’s what you were about to reveal, hmm? Your biiiiig revelation? Save it. Nothing you can say can surprise me.”

Vel closed his eyes, and hoped for a quick death.

Nothing save for stillness and darkness. It was as close as Vel had ever come to oblivion.
