You have seen a lot of war.

it is in his emphasis on choice, and the way he admits that he didn't ask questions, while not denying that they were there, presumably later. whether he did ask, eventually, she cannot tell, nor would she know whom to ask on a battlefield. the king – or whatever shape of leader – he served, would be the one to hold answers, but how many leaders speak to those laying down their lives?
