In preparation for its advisory role with the World Council, the GTA introduces new safeguards to protect Vigil's independence. Zane and the Guardians develop a framework that prevents any single entity from gaining control over Vigil's core systems. This includes decentralized nodes that distribute Vigil's functions across multiple regions, making it immune to centralized interference.
The new safeguards receive widespread approval, and communities feel reassured that Vigil's core values will be upheld regardless of its involvement in global discussions. General Aria also proposes a regular "community audit," allowing citizens to review Vigil's policies and systems at regular intervals.
These precautions ensure Vigil remains firmly in public hands while adapting to its evolving role. Nyla feels optimistic, knowing that they've managed to protect Vigil's mission even as it expands its influence.
