"This is our chance. An hour is all we need. Fight with me! Fight with the Consortium!"
For a moment, there was silence. Then the stronghold shook with the sound of thousands of voices answering her in a tide of steel and fury.
"Consortium!"
"Consortium!"
"Devil! Devil!"
The chant rolled across the walls and out into the chaos of battle, as if the stronghold itself had come alive.
One might wonder: why would these criminals be willing to fight so fervently for the Consortium? Some of them had family in the stronghold, yes, but not all of them, so the explanation that they were fighting to protect their loved ones huddled behind the walls didn't explain it all.
To those who had no family to protect, surely running away or even being enslaved by the Fujimori was a better prospect than bleeding to death.
