Bartholomew Dreslong had strange that night. Small figures fought back and forth on a vast, sparsely vegetated red plain. Some of them wore a military tan, which would have blended into the earth on a normal plain. The others wore a deep crimson.

Guns spewed explosions, and men rushed back an forth with bayonets fixed. Heroes charged through the thick of it all, waving swords glowing with light.

after a long and tedious night of charges, horn blowing, explosions, and yells, everything seemed to settle down.

And then the explosion woke him up. It was very loud, very bright, and very near. red dirt sprayed all over his naked body... strange, where was his bed?

His sight came back first. Men lay all over the red ground, some wounded, some apparently not. Most of them wore red rather than tan. brown vegatation was to his back, a low and prickly bush.

His hearing told him, when the ringing stopped, that the battle wasn't on the field anymore. explosions happened only rarely, and there was no yelling.

Men in red uniforms walk the field, but only few, and in small groups.
