I love that someone wrote about this. I've always wondered as well. Great work ^-^

What now indeed. People usually leave that out of stories. Nicely penned :)

I should think, Penelope, was the one with the questions;) I'm just saying ten years is a long time at sea.

I get your point. I always wondered about the soldiers who went off to war, saw its horrors and then return to a "normal" life. One day a witness to unrestrained violence -- the next scene is a return to what you left.
