Chapter 87 - Chapter 7: remnance of the Past

The rebel encampment bustled with activity as guild members and rebels worked side by side to repair and enhance the Behemoth vehicles. The morning sun painted the scene with hope, contrasting the somber weight of the guild's recent revelations.

Sky leaned against the side of one of the colossal machines, his gaze distant as he watched the sun's rays dance across the metal surface. Lucas joined him, a sense of kinship in their shared silence. "You know, these machines have seen their fair share of battles," Lucas finally spoke, breaking the stillness.

Sky nodded, a faint smile playing on his lips. "They've become more than just vehicles. They're symbols of our determination, of our unity."

Lucas sighed, his eyes heavy with the weight of the knowledge Sky had shared. "And now we face an even greater challenge. Mason… the strategist."

Sky's expression darkened as he looked away. "Yes. The man we thought was dead, somehow returned and leading the Lurkers. It's hard to fathom."

Lucas clenched his fists, his resolve unwavering. "If he's behind this, then we have to put an end to it. No matter what it takes."

Sky's eyes met Lucas', a shared understanding passing between them. "We will, Lucas. We'll need every resource we have."

Lucas nodded, his gaze fixed on the Behemoths. "These machines will be invaluable. With them and the alliance we've forged, we have a chance to stop Mason and the Lurkers."

Sky's tone grew grave. "But we need more information. We need to understand his plan, his motives."

Lucas turned to Sky, his eyes burning with determination. "We'll find out. We have allies now, and with our guild's skills and the Behemoths' power, we can put an end to this."

As the sounds of repair work filled the air, Sky looked at the Behemoths, their massive forms a testament to the resilience of the human spirit. "You know, Lucas, I still can't believe it sometimes. Mason… he was one of us. How did he become this?"

Lucas' gaze remained steady. "Sometimes, the path we take is shaped by circumstances beyond our control. We can't change his choices, but we can stop him from causing more harm."

Sky nodded, a mixture of sadness and determination in his eyes. "You're right. We can't change the past, but we can shape the future."

The sun continued its ascent, casting a warm light over the encampment. The hum of machinery and the voices of those working echoed in the air, a testament to their shared purpose. United by their mission and their unwavering commitment, Sky and Lucas stood together, ready to face whatever challenges lay ahead. In the shadow of the Behemoths, their friendship and determination shone as a beacon of hope, guiding them through the darkness that lay before them.
