Lena stood before the united council of these alien races: the Arkanites, the Zyphirians, and the Krith. They were here not as a collection of disparate species but as a coalition—a force united against a common enemy.Zara, Sylas, and Othir all stood by her side, their respective fleets positioned just outside Zaltron's atmosphere, ready to engage at a moment's notice. The weight of the responsibility still rested heavily on Lena's shoulders, but now, at least, she had allies she could trust.Zara's voice was the first to break the silence. "This is it. We either stand together or fall apart. The council cannot be allowed to destroy everything we have fought for."Sylas nodded, his expression solemn. "The core holds untold power. If we fail to understand it fully, it could destroy more than just the council. We must proceed with caution."Othir, his form flickering, added in his cryptic way: "The fabric of the multiverse is fragile. But together, we have a chance. We will stand with you, Lena."Lena glanced at Elias, who stood beside her, the weight of the moment settling over them both. This was no longer just about Zaltron. It was about the entire galaxy."We will defeat the council," Lena said, her voice resolute. "We will stop them from taking the core's power, and we will protect our worlds. Together."The allies nodded, and Lena felt a surge of hope that she hadn't realized she'd been missing. This was a fight they could win. Not because they had the strongest forces, but because they were united—together, they were stronger than any single species or fleet.
