War stories are not my speciality, but thought I'd give it a try this story's focus is a spiritual experience of death as told by a loving father and husband whose role is that of an interplanetary career soldier. Some of it is fairly graphic and probably too much for my liking but this appears to be what is expected of a war story.

But what they discovered was far from welcoming. This new planet was already inhabited by terrifying creatures, and they were not happy with our presence. His men fought to survive against these beasts, I couldn't help but wonder why they were so hostile towards us. That's when one of them approached me, defying everything we had been warned about.

Death and decay have rusted away at a world once prosperous; and now only the scattershot remnants of civilization speckle the tortured land, striving to maintain their own tortured existence-helpless. Hapless. Hopeless.

An insignificant spark of life, unassuming, forsaken amid the refuse of mankind-destined to change all of their destinies. This is its ballad.
