Greetings to all users of this resource!
A really weird and at the same time trivial idea was conceived in my head today. This happened during an extremely boring lecture when I started reading a book that dwells upon real historical events and was written by a military officer and might even be considered as a philosophical treatise. This book contains a fair amount of interesting words and constructions that were written out in my workbook. They are just random words and was taken from different contexts. And as I looked at the words my brain immediately began to depict a story and I decided to write it down. It might be regarded as a story or just as an extract or a text without any particular genre. I hope you enjoy reading it and that it would be worthy of your time.
The purpose of this piece is to entartain the reader and to hopefully improve my English. I know I always make mistakes due to my inattentiveness, so It would be very generous of you if you corrected me.

The greatness and fierceness with which the war broke out were of something natural, but still are capable of beggaring imagination. Mottos, slogans, hope - everything seemed so incompatible with the reality now. The very ground of egalitarianism did not hold up against a brutal force of political interest.
He was a distinguished officer among other guards of honour serving in the forces that were supposed to supplement a nation's military capability. But circumstances were now pushing him into undesireable affairs because his regiment was comitioned to become a part of a regular infrantry unit. In addition to that, when the situation was deteriorating a lot of conscripts were assembled and now constituted the most of the army. From this moment a vast majority of the army being under arms was full of ill-prepared soldiers and people that would rather exploit all possible examptions and resort to self-mutilation than engage in battle. The truth was that it was actually happening and some beggars ended up with being shackled to a rope, whereas the others were haunted down for desertion. Until recently these things remained a matter of contention leaving a little hope for human nature to change. [END]
Thank you for paying me with your attention!
