There have been happier days than these, but happier days do not produce Heroes. Real Heroes are gritty; they burn bridges and shoot arrows into their enemies' chests, they come back with one eye and a new, grizzly outlook on life. It's hard being married to a hero, especially when she's an alcoholic who drinks to get rid of the demons in her head, that were born when she slayed the dragons. |
