Story
Mykola is an eccentric pacifist with a sincere wish to be useful to humanity. His naive view of the world collapses when war reaches Donbass. Militants kill his pregnant wife and burn down his home, leaving him to face a reality far removed from the ideals he once held.
After recovering from the devastation, Mykola makes a decisive choice and joins a sniper company. His new path places a former pacifist inside the machinery of war, where discipline, danger and personal grief shape each step. The story stays close to his transformation and to the human cost of conflict.
