Consumed by rage and a thirst for vengeance, Tomas reacted impulsively, lunging at Karl and engaging in a brutal hand-to-hand fight. The struggle ended with Karl lying lifeless on the cold floor, the echo of his final gasp filling the vault. Anya and the others, witnessing the violent turn of events, recoiled in horror.
Their escape was swift but tainted by the darkness that had crept into their hearts. The stolen money felt less like a symbol of rebellion and more like the spoils of war. The initial spark of defiance had morphed into a consuming quest for revenge, leaving them uncertain of the future they were fighting for. As they disappeared into the night, the city remained shrouded in its oppressive darkness, the fight for freedom seemingly as distant as ever.
The choice of ending is yours, each offering a different perspective on the consequences of rebellion and the complexities of fighting against an oppressive regime.
"Una mattina mi sono alzato,O bella ciao, bella ciao, bella ciao ciao ciao,Una mattina mi sono alzato,E ho trovato l'invasor."
