I am weary. And I grieve for all those who have lost one dear to them, or who sit by the bedside of their loved ones and pray for healing that may or may not come. I have lost my son once, and I fear now that I must bear his death a second time. I do not know if I can bear such a thing.

Why must men always fight? What comes of it in the end but loss and despair?

All of my children, all of them, and my husband lost to me. And for what?

My heart is sore.

	Truly? What if we had all hidden? Would they simply have let us be? We do not know. My husband is a warrior, and a brave one, but I have not the heart for it. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I don't think they would have. They're not like men, they don't tire or lose interest, I think they would have waited. And there is no way we could keep everyone hidden for very long. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	And yet two are dead, and my son and many others grievously injured. Is it worth the cost? What value must we put on a life? (Reply to this) (Parent)
