Diary Entry - November 16, 2023 - 0600 Hours
Location: Kore - Altis
I've lost track of the days, and the pain keeps throbbing in sync with my heartbeat. The last thing I remember is the chaos in Dienland, the deafening roar of gunfire, and then darkness. I woke up in this place, wherever it is, disoriented and alone. The room is damp, cold, and the stench of decay hangs heavy in the air. My gear is gone, and I can feel the wounds – a testament to the brutality of my captors. They've taken everything but my resolve. I can't give in; I won't give in. I've tried to piece together my surroundings, but it's futile. The walls seem to close in on me, a constant reminder of the uncertainty that shrouds my existence. There's a dim light flickering in the corner, casting eerie shadows. It's in these moments of solitude that doubt creeps in, the nagging question of whether I'll make it out alive. The pain intensifies with each passing hour, a cruel reminder of the price of survival. I've scribbled makeshift bandages from torn fabric, attempting to stanch the bleeding, but it's a feeble effort. I know I can't stay here. I need to find a way out, back to Karma Company, back to those who depend on me. But the uncertainty gnaws at my mind. Will I see another sunrise? Will my name be etched into the list of the fallen? Or will I become another forgotten soul in the shadows of war?
Bible Quote: Psalm 23:4 - "Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff, they comfort me."
