    Summary

    This is a work of historical fiction about moral collapse and trauma during WWII. It contains graphic depictions of violence, psychological abuse, and difficult themes. The author condemns nazism and all forms of fascism.

    This English translation was created with the assistance of artificial intelligence (DeepSeek AI) for initial drafting and stylistic refinement, under the close supervision and creative direction of the author. While every effort has been made to ensure accuracy and preserve the psychological depth of the original Russian text, machine translation is an imperfect tool. If you, as a reader, spot any errors, inconsistencies, or passages that feel stylistically "off," your feedback is invaluable. Please do not hesitate to point them out via AO3's Private Message system. Your input helps improve the work for everyone.
    The original Russian text of this novel is available on FicBook: https://ficbook.net/readfic/01981dda-d7d4-776f-9944-5f2859eefc75
