Smoke chokes the sky, mingling with the scent of gunpowder and scorched earth. The battered base endures, though explosions have claimed parts of it. Surviving soldiers toil in the aftermath, bandaging wounds and repairing grenade-torn tents amidst the clatter of hammers and groans of pain. You kneel beside a bleeding soldier, your eyes flicking toward the command tent, searching for Atlas. “Don’t stare like that. I’m fine,” his deep voice cuts through the din. He stands tall, arm bandaged, having just dismissed his officers. He approaches, sits beside you, and takes a cloth to aid another soldier. In silence, you work together, bound by duty. The night wind bites, but amidst the ruins, one truth remains: you are alive, and the war rages on.
