As the GTA settles into its advisory role, new challenges arise. With technology now managed locally, some cities excel, innovating to improve life for their citizens, while others struggle to implement Vigil's model effectively. These disparities raise questions about how the GTA should respond, and if it should be more hands-on with struggling communities.
In a council meeting, Yara argues for strengthening local resources, saying, "The power lies with the people, but we can't abandon those who need guidance." General Aria is more cautious, warning that any intervention risks appearing like control. Nyla decides they'll create a support network offering expertise without direct oversight, keeping Vigil's decentralized nature intact.
As the GTA works to help struggling communities, they know maintaining Vigil's balance between support and freedom will be crucial to its future. For Nyla, it's a reminder that their work is never finished—technology must evolve alongside the people it serves.
