Description

"Sound the bugle now - play it just for me

As the seasons change - remember how I used to be

Now I can't go on - I can't even start

I've got nothing left - just an empty heart.


I'm a soldier - wounded so I must give up the fight

There's nothing more for me - lead me away...

Or leave me lying here.


Sound the bugle now - tell them I don't care

There's not a road I know - that leads to anywhere

Without a light I fear that I will stumble in the dark

Lay right down - decide not to go on.


Then from on high - somewhere in the distance

There's a voice that calls, "Remember who you are"

If you lose yourself - your courage soon will follow.


So be strong tonight - remember who you are

Yeah you're a soldier now - fighting in a battle

To be free once more - yeah, that's worth fighting for."

Sound the Bugle - Bryan Adams

Even though broken and beaten, the first snowfall of Winter brings him back to far away memories - when he was finally able to see the snow for the first time.
Winter brings cold, chilly wind - but for the Havirian, it brings a new warm dawn.

My hand is dead.

Angus, as a runt, was deprived to see the outside snow for a long time until he was strong enough to survive the cold.
The first snowfall was a magic moment he shared under the vigilant eyes of his mother, and thus the event has a very special meaning to him - now more than ever.

Thanks Hirvlased for motivating me through this pain :'D love u ugly

Beautiful and badass artwork! I LOVE wolves! The pup sooooo frinking ADORABLE!

I don't think that I've heard the song that the lyrics are from. However, I do like Bryan Adams, so I'll have to check it out.

This is sooo beautiful, Halk! You have used the song so perfectly to show Angus' struggle, and the panel with his mother <33 It's so powerful. I hope that this is the beginning of Angus' ascent back to contentment <33

I have such a nostalgic, personal connection to this song from when I was a kid, so reading the lyrics in the comic gave me so many feelings. ;-;
Halk. I really love this piece! From the poses to the entire atmosphere, every panel has been executed so beautifully. It's really hard not to feel anything while looking at this.

Aww Nav ;-; This song has a very special meaning to me aswell, so I can relate! Blame Hirvlased for pointing out how fitting it would be with this piece! xD

Thanks so much Nav! I'm glad I managed to express Angus feelings with this one, it's an important piece in his arc and honestly, I can't deny how attached I'm getting to this little guy!
