My name is Mason. Not the one from Call of Duty. I am a 23-year-old in the military. My role was a medic; due to an unexpected battle, I lost my best friend. I helped civilians and aided my comrades medically. I was highly respected by my squamates; we were friends, but Marek was like my brother. We did most things together, from drinking to sneaking out of base to telling each other secrets. I miss those days. Now I am broken. Who am I? Why am I here? From that alone I have PTSD and survival guilt. I made a choice that got me reincarnated into another world. It was different, still a broken soldier who feels conflicted. In this world I became something. Was it a monster, a hero, or a villain?" What is it?" you asked. That is what you need to find out for me to fully understand what led me here. A second chance? Atonement? This is what I deal with in this novel. With that being said, grab your food and drinks and travel through my second life.
