His last entry

     June 4, 

 

My whole life took a sharp turn when the war started.

All my luxuries and pleasures siezed while my worries and anxieties found no end.

Surely I had no way of dodging this chaos.

The only way was to face the ungodly beast and show it what it took away from me.

Not only did his people take my friends, but he also took away the pride our people had for this country.

It was no more us v.s. them, but rather me v.s. them and no one to back me up.

People say this is a lie.

As for me, I don't give a damn what they say.

I fought those b******s and defeated them with a sword in one hand and a shield in another.

Those were the only two things I needed.

I found great fortune for my deed, yet I could not accept.

My rightful place had already been rewarded.

The people's pride in their country.

No longer will we stand alone!

This reminds me of the WWII stories my parents told me...
Very realistic!
Written like you lived it yourself.

A blast of patriotrism from a soldier-true. If your story was ever a book, just like you have put it in italics yourself, it would be good in italics as a sort of 'quotation' right before the first chapter. But I guess that really is your intent anyway. Do you mean 'Ceased' instead of 'siezed'. Ceased means 'ended'. Or do you mean they were taken away, in which siezed would be right.

The paragraph serves as a good introduction to the story, giving enough key information for what we can expect the story will be about. Almost like an introductory snapshot into the theme and plot of the story. It was handled fine.

Good work.

It's a good attention getter. I'm interest in figuring out who he is and what he did.
