The rooftop seemed to hum with unseen energy, as if the land itself was listening, waiting to see what Frank and Laura would do next.
Frank exhaled slowly, the weight of Elias' words settling in. "So, what do we do?"
Elias gave a small, knowing smile. "You already know the answer. You just have to be willing to act."
Laura flipped through the pages of the ancient book, her fingers tracing the intricate sketches. The more she read, the more the past felt eerily familiar—a cycle of struggle, resistance, and renewal.
"The people who came before us," she said, piecing the story together, "they didn't fight alone. They built alliances, turned the city itself into a weapon against those who wanted to control it." She looked up, meeting Frank's gaze. "We have to do the same."
Frank nodded, his mind racing. "Novacorp has money, influence, and politicians in their pocket. But we have something they don't we have the people."
Elias stepped back, satisfied. "Then it's time to remind the city who it truly belongs to."
The Resistance Begins
Over the next few weeks, Frank and Laura mobilized. They reached out to local business owners, community leaders, historians—anyone who had a stake in preserving the heart of the city. What started as a quiet movement quickly turned into a full-scale resistance.
Social media exploded with their message: #SaveTheHeart. Laura crafted powerful posts, tying their fight to the city's forgotten history, weaving the prophecy into a modern-day battle against greed. Frank worked behind the scenes, coordinating efforts to block Novacorp's legal maneuvers and exposing their corruption.
Then came the first real blow…
