"The soul of a returning warrior must go through a metamorphosis to return to a different world, to ascend from Hades, as is indicated in myth and teachings of the ancient teachings of many civilizations. To understand the angst of combat trauma, one must learn the old myths and folklore, and learn to listen to the shadow of the returning warrior." -- A concerned veteran.
Editor's note: "Metamorphosis" comes from Greek, by way of Latin -- to change one's form.
