In the aftermath of his triumph over the Broker, Jhon sensed a shift in the Alliance. Freed from external control, he now faced the task of consolidating power within, uniting the members under a single, cohesive vision. Yet, the victory was bittersweet—cutting ties with the Broker had left scars, and not everyone in the Alliance supported Jhon's new direction. Tensions simmered, both inside and outside the Alliance, as rivals began to reemerge, eager to fill the void left by the Broker's influence.
