believes the reasons for fighting become muted over time and eventually all that matters is staying alive
The excerpt clearly shows that there is a change in the narrator. It uses the phrases "had begun" and "had turned" to show the difference between before and after. He says that at first is was "an adventurous expedition" but by the end "we fought for...our own survival." The excerpt does not show that the narrator is fearful, that violence is a necessary evil, or the importance of war. The best answer that shows the narrator's change in the excerpt is that the reasons for fighting become muted and staying alive is all that matters.
