the old man managed to stand up, sat on the chair and asked him to also sit down, after they had both sitted, the old man asked, Now what is the problem? " I only want to ask you a question sir, I want to know why we can not stop the war and live in peace with the rest of the world,? " man looked at him, he was a bit surprised, war was all he had knew, and so were his father and Fathers before him, the question at first sounded strange, but then he realized that indeed the world was changing, he answered, " Peace is not real my child, it was just a feeling and an imagination that can't be achieved, how do you intend to live in peace with one you have killed his mother and bombed his friends

The domain wanted only this problem resolved, right? The priority was to make a solution, but there was one barrier that could come in his way of implementation of any kind of solution to this. Was this problem created in this society a man-made scheme or some coincidental straying from a good way? He read some titles of books in the library, looking for the various genres available. There were quite a lot of fictional books, so maybe the literature aspect was booming here… other genres of books in the vast majority included war or peace-related concepts. Taking three of them out of the shelf, he started reading.

But Lena continued curiously exploring, fully desiring to become a part of Renz's private world, at least for a few moments. Lena had already seen the four libraries of Schloss Wolfenbarger, but Lena thought that Renz's lounge could have been considered a small fifth. There were several tall bookcases, neatly stacked with large volumes and ledgers. Lena briefly scanned the titles, surprised by the names that had been deemed worthy of Renz's private collection. There were several that she knew well with from the hours she stole reading at Sterling Manor, such as Shakespeare and Dante, and illuminated prints of William Blake. There were other names that Lena recognized, but wasn't familiar wit

The cover wasn’t familiar, but it was also scuffed and torn. A shudder rolled through me at the book’s mistreatment, but by the many dog-eared pages, it was much loved. “Tolstoy?” I asked as I read the author’s name. In my hands was one of Tolstoy’s greatest novels, and one I could admit I’d never read—War and Peace. I looked up at him but he was back in his shadow, talking to Marco, though his eyes never left me. I flipped open the pages, happy to have something to read again, since my unfinished book was somewhere in my bag that they’d done who knows what with. I greatly missed reading and was desperate for anything to help get my head out of my present situation.

But on the lower shelf, pushed toward the back like something filed away rather than stored, I found it. No title on the spine. I pulled it free and opened the cover. “ A Complete Record of the Human Management System as Established by the Wolf Council in the Third Year Following the Great War’s Cessation,” I read out loud to myself. Great War. The same war, Mye had mentioned. I carried the book to the chair by the dead fireplace and sat down. The first section was bureaucratic—council minutes, resource allocations, the dry language of people building something terrible and calling it policy. I moved through it quickly, scanning for substance.

and Sarah started to laugh. “This is not a book for a man, and no way for a king. You should read “The Art of War” from Sun Tzu, not “Pride and Prejudice”. Jane Austen would turn in the grave if she knew that you are one of her readers.” and she giggles without realizing. Hearing her , Patrick’s heart skipped a beat. “Love is not just for women. It’s for men too. Even for those prideful ,arrogant and self-righteous men.”

On the contrary, when his eyes fell on me, all I ever saw was cold indifference. Why did he marry me if he never loved me? Why drag me into this nightmare of a marriage? Emma nestled into his arms, her voice soft and gentle. “Benjamin, actually, my illness… it's been cured.” Emma then began to tell him about her strange experience overseas. After leaving the country, overwhelmed with despair, she had planned to end her life. However, she then met a miracle doctor, who cured her of the kidney disease that had plagued her for years after just a few treatments with some herbs.

Already much more soothing than sad songs and the sound of explosions. Tall shelves lined the walls, crammed with books. Of course this man had a library that looked like it belonged in an interior magazine spread. A low chandelier hung in the middle of the room above a long solid wood table, a few chairs, one couch in the corner with a folded throw. I walked along the first shelf, letting my fingertips brush the spines. Gold lettering, embossed titles, lettering already faded. The first row was full of classics. Dostoyevsky, Tolstoy, Dumas. Of course Zane owned a collection of depressed men who liked to write about sin and consequences. Fitting.

All eyes were again attentively focused on him, interest rekindled. “Good, my children. War ... well, war is kind of an argument. And it is called a dispute when two parties, i.e. two people, two families, two clans or even two peoples want to claim a certain cause for themselves without the intention of sharing it. Let us take an example: a farmer has a new cow that gives a lot of milk and therefore shares the milk with his neighbor. After a few days the neighbor comes and says that the cow actually belongs to him because it was grazing in his pasture. He demands it for himself and his family, while the cow gives enough milk for both families. Of course, the farmer doesn't see why he should

Napoleon could not imagine what she could be doing with a book on 'war' and asked her in astonishment, “War?” “Yes, Mr. Napoleon. My lecturer gave me an assignment.” “ I see. If you don't mind, may I hear the question?” “The question is – How can you Maintain Peace Between Two Waring Nations?” “I see. The only book on war is off the shelf. You have to be patient for the student to return it.” “Oh! My goodness. I need to submit this assignment at 8 AM tomorrow.” “Wow! That is unfortunate. This is 7 PM and the Library will close at 8 PM.”
