==Story==
Act III is the 3rd part in the Dear Hunter's six-act story. Previously in the story, the main character (the "Dear Hunter") fell in love with a prostitute named Ms. Leading. Soon after, the relationship falls apart and he leaves her due to his realization of her unfortunate profession. At the end of Act II, the two go their separate ways and it seems that Ms. Leading “has never been happier than she is now.” The main character, however, is still left with his 'history' and is trying to move on. In the beginning of Act III, the protagonist has become a soldier and is now fighting for his life in what seems an attempt to escape his past. Throughout the album, he is presented with numerous trials and ghosts from his past. Later in the album, the hero is saved from a mustard gas attack by an unnamed soldier. Coincidentally, the Dear Hunter finds his father while he is bragging about having a love affair in The Dime with other soldiers. Ironically, it turns out that the soldier who saved him is his half-brother. Moving further along in the war, the half-brother is killed in action and the protagonist sees his father show no remorse or sadness whatsoever, which enrages him. He poisons his father and steals his brothers identity, hoping to go live with his step-mother after the war is over because he is visually similar to the half-brother. The album ends with the hero reflecting on how his life has been spiraling downward and his hopes that "one of these days, he will learn to love again." 〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://lakeandtheriver.com/index.php?s=8976e01282a11ac13f4c2a4453e8f5e2&showtopic=194 )〕
