Ebony followed the others, dragging behind a little bit from her deep thoughts. She watched the ground, but didn't actually see anything aside from the unanswered questions that were racing through her mind. Who were these people she's walking with? What were their lives like? Did they even have lives? Did I? More and more kept coming, bombarding her soft brain tissue, causing Ebony the burden of a headache. She blinked several times, clearing her thoughts and trying to relax her mind and relieve it from the pain. Noticing her slacking pace, she quickly caught up and continued on with the group.
"If people bring so much courage to this world the world has to kill them to break them, so of course it kills them. The world breaks every one and afterward many are strong at the broken places. But those that will not break it kills. It kills the very good and the very gentle and the very brave impartially. If you are none of these you can be sure it will kill you too but there will be no special hurry."
~Ernest Hemingway, "A Farewell to Arms"
