Learn to Be What You Are NotBEFORE READING: This takes place two years before the start of the story found here. Tadren (also Ren, here called Naji, for reasons that I will only explain if you ask) is a soldier for the Anyan army. He fights for them in the hope of earning his freedom, but that is not to be, for on this day the Anyans suffer a staggering defeat to their archenemy, Tai'in. Ren is one of the many wounded who lay scattered on the hill before the fort the Anyans have just abandoned; the scene opens with Tai'ina soldiers dispatching the mortally wounded, and gathering the dead and the living alike.Learn to Be What You Are Not

REN 1 UPDATEDRen woke with a start, his head jerking up from the pillow. Then he remembered what that pillow meant- he didn’t need to be awake before dawn, because he was at the barracks, having arrived there just yesterday from the usual three month patrol. So he could lie back down, and sleep for a little while. That is, provided no one needed him for anything. With his head comfortably nestled back in the softness of the pillow, Ren mused.
