Human Resolve
Hernando lowered himself into his chair and began the painful process of unbandaging his feet. The mines took a lot out of him and the thought had crossed his mind many times that surviving might not be worth the effort anymore. He winced at the bloody mess. Even if he'd once been the one lecturing his friends on the need to keep fighting, no matter how small the act of resistance, he was now reaching the end of his resolve.
But if humanity was ever going to win back its freedom from the outerworlders, Hernando could not abandon all hope.
Today's Story was based on a prompt from Lillie McFerrin Writes.
