East Bound - Russia x Germany
48 parts Complete MatureNot a ship book (sorry)
After graduating from the best Western University there is to offer, Germany, an aspiring historian with about as much decisiveness as he has money, boards a train heading east to Sakhalin Island. His compartment mate, Russia, a foreign worker fresh from the army who is frugal and possessive, who seems to not care about anything (including his life) joins him.
Barely any recognition passes between them, although they are joined by Russia's old friend, Poland. It seems just like any other long-haul train ride.
Until.
The train they take breaks down, and the trek begins. Though ice and snow, wind and in between glaciers, hopping on and off broken down ATV's, icebreakers, and even deer. The inhospitable northeast with its cold exterior brings forth unimaginable heart and warmth in unexpected places. Life over the 72nd parallel hasn't even shown what it can do yet.
At the shores of Sakhalin, down the tired slopes and where the dawn is born, not one of them knows what they had just gone through and why.
The question is, can they overcome this new challenge?
