章節 74: Chapter 74: Resolve

Alessa knew now that theirs was a battle worth fighting - worth even dying for, if she had to.

She owed it to her parents, to her brother, to Isaac's family, and to everyone who had been unlucky enough not to get a stamp of approval from some stupid machine. Someone had to make the Engineers pay for what they'd done. And if that someone was the rebels, Alessa would play whatever part she could to ensure their success.

She just hoped she wasn't being rash. Between her outrage over Isaac's revelation, her concern over Janie's weakened health, and her desire not to tear Isaac away from his family again, Alessa had to admit that it was easier to stay the course and follow along with the rebels' plans.

But in the back of her mind, she questioned if that wasn't why she should leave. Wasn't the right path usually the harder one?

She prayed she wouldn't regret this.
