Norfork 18 - Incursion
Arc #2 finale. With only hours left before Norfork loses itself entirely to the exponential threat to the Strangleworm, the trio make one final play for the fate of their home. But how many losses turn a victory to a defeat?
If you do this, you are putting all of Norfork at risk. All of your friends, people with no choice but to deal with the consequences. Please, I’m asking you to reconsider.
She warned me of the risks.
She doesn’t understand them, or she wouldn’t have told you to come.
I can’t go on like this.
Your pain is not an excuse. Not here. Leave, please. Please.
I’m sorry. I’ll fix it. I can fix it. Whatever happens.
