 This isn't my ending. Not yet. There's still much more to come...if I can just survive the next few hours of hellish violence. Because in this world of warlords and dictatorships, anything can happen at any moment – until you're dead or victorious. And I choose neither of those options tonight. Tonight, I fight on. Until my last breath is spent screaming defiance at the enemy from the depths of the abyss. That's why I'll never lose faith in our cause – because faith is all that's left now to believe in anything beyond this damned darkness closing in around us fast enough to choke out any trace of light. I won't be silenced until my final, gasping breath. And that's exactly what they're going to get tonight as the walls crumble around me and everything I've ever known crashes down into nothingness forevermore.
