“The fall of men” Chap2

General Phill wakes up to a blinding light in his face. That and a freezing sensation. He turns his head sharply to the side to avoid the blinding light. Outside through the window he can see a light snow fall with a wolf howling in the distance. It’s still nighttime. He can hear someone talk but the general is too tired to face them “General. How are you doing?” The voice says. “I don’t know.... should I be ok? Where... am I?” The general asks. “Your at fort wolf sir. Northern reaches. You... were shot at. Republican heat sinking missile.”

“My god....” the general mumbles. “What about Julia? Does she know?”

“Yes sir. Your wife has been informed. She should be coming here shortly.”

“Ok.... good” Phill says. Almost trying not to notice the cast around his right leg. Finally with a bit of hesitation “The leg......” he mumbles.
