Prologue: Words
Words have meanings. Ask a dictionary, it will tell you. Words are statements, words are facts.
Colonel Robert Hogan has always believed in words.
Or at least in their meaning. Words have served him his entire life. He used them to make people do what he wants without them noticing it. He was good with words.
One day he started realising that there was more about them.
Corporal Peter Newkirk has always doubted words.
Or at least dictionaries. He knew that there was more about words, but he never understood. Nevertheless, he tries, so the words followed him until one day.
Then they caught up with him and led him to what they really are.
Colonel Robert Hogan. Corporal Peter Newkirk. Two people who understood the words in different ways. Two people whose life will change because of words. Because they slowly start to understand.
Two people. A lot of words. And a lot of things to talk about.
