Она видит, как разработка новых вооружений, таких как танки и самолеты, революционизирует современную войну и создает новые возможности для победы и поражения. В то же время Эмили становится свидетелем воздействия войны на инфраструктуру городка, так как дороги и здания повреждены или разрушены артиллерийским огнём. Она видит, как военные усилия истощают ресурсы города и влияют на жизнь всех вокруг нее.
