Venerable Brutus Wodin wordlessly shook his head in disapproval.
Commander Melkor's damaged mech failed to move for several long seconds.

However, greatness could not be attained by being recklessly suicidal in combat. Theories about breakthrough triggers varied, but Brutus personally believed that mech pilots needed to be sincere in their approach towards combat.
They needed to fight with the intent to survive and overcome any challenges in their way!
