Ah, my mistake. Remembered it as an engagement, forgot the wedding. Revise from "...on his wedding day..." to "...at some public function..."She has to know before that happens. Henry got married after her battalion got wiped and she has been on the journey to return home for who knows how long, she might be too late to prevent it.
She has to know before that happens. Henry got married after her battalion got wiped and she has been on the journey to return home for who knows how long, she might be too late to prevent it."Now all I've got to do is find him on his wedding day, catch a glimpse of them, then decide to tearfully and gracefully bow out before I think he spots me, leaving him unsure whether he actually saw me or not, and then re-encounter one another when our mutual eventual spouses have widowed/divorced/disappeared on us."
Not when he received news that her entire unit had been wiped out.Damn, he might've held on if she promised to marry him...
I don't view it as a backstory to be honest. I view it as integral to the overall plot of the story. This war and its extent is finally being shown to us USING the backstory as a plot device. Let alone that background we got into Desmonds mind was also necessary I would imagine for later on.It’s still a to be continued
I wish the backstory would just end already
