To hope is a dangerous thing. You may never know how far you will need to climb; how deep you will need to dig; or how much you will have to suffer...It's the nature of things to see you break.
A very good prologue! Not a lot of action, but that's okay. The dialogue was strong and the environmental storytelling was effective, and the after-action report was a good conclusion. Lots of narrative holes begging to be filled, and that's just what you want from an introductory chapter.

A good prologue to add a bit of mystery and setup for how the main story starts.
Interesting prologue. The hook is solid, and the setting promising.
