Part 5/8:
In the face of adversity, the villagers and warriors train intensively. From harvesting grain to learning about warfare, the camaraderie grows, especially as Nemesis, a warrior with a tragic background, shares in the villagers’ struggles. Each warrior narrates personal tales that further motivate the collective spirit, culminating in a climactic strategy session to fortify the village’s defenses.
The Assault on Veldt
As the five days of preparation culminate, Atticus arrives at Veldt, revealing a deceitful plan. He proposes a negotiation to Kora while secretly positioning troops to strike the village. In a desperate move to protect her people, Kora feigns compliance, but Gunnar’s courageous act of stealing her gun ignites a surprise attack.
