Chapter 6 The Decision

As the night wore on and the conversations in Lance's room quieted down, the group found themselves reflecting on the upcoming challenges and decisions they faced. Sophia, particularly troubled by the revelation about Yellowbird, sat quietly, contemplating her next move.

"I can't believe Yellowbird would stoop so low," Sophia murmured, breaking the silence.

Eno, who had been silently watching Sophia, spoke up. "Yeah, they're not the kind of guild you want to be associated with. They may offer short-term benefits, but in the long run, it's not worth it."

Lily nodded in agreement. "You're better than that, Sophia. Don't let their shady tactics lure you in. You have the potential to join a reputable guild, one that values integrity and skill."

Sophia sighed, feeling torn between the opportunity Yellowbird presented and the warnings from her friends. "But what if this is my only chance to join a guild? What if I miss out on something great?"

Johnny, who had been listening quietly, chimed in. "Sophia, you're talented, and you have us. We'll help you find the right guild, one that respects you and your abilities. You don't need to settle for less."

Eric nodded in agreement. "Exactly. We're a team, Sophia. We'll support you no matter what decision you make. But remember, sometimes the best opportunities come when we least expect them."

Sophia smiled gratefully at her friends, feeling reassured by their support. "Thank you, everyone. I needed to hear that. I'll think it over carefully and make the decision that's best for me."

With their conversation coming to a close, the group bid each other goodnight, each with their own thoughts and plans for the days ahead. As Sophia drifted off to sleep, she felt a sense of gratitude for the friends who had always been there for her, guiding her through life's challenges.

Little did they know, the events of the coming days would test their bonds and resilience in ways they never imagined. But with each other by their side, they knew they could overcome anything that came their way.
