The Pilgrims, blinded by their own hubris, saw only rebellion, failing to comprehend the depth of the wound they had inflicted. They had pushed too hard, taken too much, and in their relentless pursuit of their own destiny, they had ignited a fire that would consume them all. The reckoning had begun, and the earth itself seemed to tremble with the weight of it.
