    **August 1914.** Europe stands on the brink of catastrophe. When the mobilization orders went out, processing depots were engulfed in bureaucratic chaos. Standing before the recruitment officers was Adrian Falken-a ten-year-old orphan left alone following the deaths of his mother, a university mathematician, and his father, a master watchmaker. He possessed no surviving family, but he carried something far more dangerous: a mind gifted with the highest recorded intelligence metrics in modern history. Blending his father's obsessive grasp of physical mechanics with his mother's fluid command of spatial calculations, Adrian forged his enlistment papers. In the frantic rush to fill frontline quotas, no officer questioned the quiet, unnaturally calm boy who scored perfectly on every technical assessment. Joining the Imperial German Army as an ordinary private, he possesses no title, no noble lineage, and no promise of survival-only the determination to earn every step through merit. Then, on the eve of war, a voice awakens within his mind. AEGIS is an unseen military intelligence system known only to Adrian. It cannot perform miracles or rewrite destiny; it offers only disciplined analysis, measured advice, and the burden of knowledge. Every decision remains Adrian's to make, and every consequence his to bear. Equipped with this cold, calculating interface, Adrian is thrust into the roaring hell of the Western Front. From the mud-drenched trenches of Charleroi to subterranean sapping galleries, he navigates a world where courage is tested daily and trust is earned through sacrifice. To his squadmates, he is an unnerving enigma-a ten-year-old child moving through battle with the terrifying, flawless precision of an industrial machine. As the optimism of 1914 gives way to terror, one forgotten soldier may become the man who changes the twentieth century. History remembers victories. Soldiers remember the dead.

    "The Century of Lament" recounts the harrowing experiences of Parkinson and his loved ones during and after World War I. The story begins with the outbreak of the war, driven by political tensions and tragic events like the assassination of Archduke Ferdinand. Parkinson volunteers to join the British forces, facing the brutal realities of trench warfare, guilt, and loss. Amidst the chaos, moments of faith, hope, and brotherhood emerge, such as the Christmas Truce, where soldiers from opposing sides share a rare bond. The narrative also explores societal struggles, including Charlotte's work as a Canary Girl, the rise of sociological ideas, and the devastating aftermath of war that leaves scars on nations and individuals alike. As the war concludes, the story reflects on the costs of peace, justice, and the profound trauma left behind. The Treaty of Versailles and the rise of extremism in Germany mark the beginning of a new dark chapter, with characters facing exile, suffering, and the rise of Hitler. Despite these horrors, the novel highlights enduring human resilience, love, and faith, culminating in hopes for a better future amid the lingering shadows of the century's laments.

    In my history class, I had to write Trench Logs as an assignment. We had to write seven log entries, pretending that we were soldiers during WW1, but I wrote them like letters. I really like how they turned out so I decided to publish them. I also couldn't think of any names so I just used the human names of different Hetalia characters. IT ISN'T A FANFICTION THOUGH! I only used their names! To give you a quick run down about what's going on, Arthur Kirkland is a soldier in the British army during WW1. He writes to his sister, Alice, about his time in the trenches, the people he's met, and the gory truth about war.
