ducking under a hail of fire, i clutch my rifle close, noticing the resilience in the eyes of those branded as criminals before the pre-founding of our new beginning, where no one is belittled or has to engage in under-the-table dealings to survive. it's here in the trenches we've learned the true meaning of unity, a chance to start over, where every whispered strategy doesn't aim to deceive but to lift us all higher, proving that even the most underestimated can forge a path of honor.
