At the edge of extinction, some decisions were never choices.262Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9HnoNH75YC

The invasions were relentless, driving the tribe to the brink of collapse.262Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGLjCU9lzGr
Survival of the fittest——cruel, but enduring.262Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc6r0xphkl1
And yet, from the ruins, they rose again, rebuilding the will to live.

In a small cave, the few remaining pigs were packed tightly together.
After relentless attacks, casualties had steadily mounted.
The exhausted herd had no room to breathe, let alone recover.
The air reeked of blood and damp earth, and even their breathing felt heavy.
In one corner, a large pig was pressing down hard on another pig’s hind leg with his front hoof—
But upon closer look, there was… nothing left there at all.

“...Honey...”262Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVq9jfkyWvF
He spoke softly, his voice barely audible.
“If I die… please eat me.”
The foreleg pressing against his wound trembled—262Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE1Lx7C6Ckz
perhaps from the strain,262Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkHwg6RHfiF
or perhaps the weight of those words.
“What are you saying… You’ll be okay. You have to make it through!”
The wounded pig let out a faint smile, gasped a few breaths,262Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMYHhsLP5WG
and reached out with his other thick hoof.
Slowly, he touched his wife’s snout—262Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1KpKlQL4mu
leaving behind a warm, red streak.
“You know this kind of wound… won’t heal.”
“Rather than be eaten by them,262Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaYJ8PJJFhe
I’d rather you live.”
Then, lifting his head, he shouted toward the center of the cave:
“If we must die,262Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG6yhf04Tzb
then let us nourish our own,262Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0cwYfRIgfZ
not feed our enemies!”
Silence fell.262Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9wMSivSJ5i
Every breath in the cave stilled.
A few seconds later, another pig spoke up:262Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO7KJFrXDKp
“Me too!”
Then a third:262Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5KwiGBa4rw
“And me!”

After days of starvation, they finally had something to eat.262Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVKto3FXFNF
It should have been a joyful moment.
But for some reason, tears began to fall,262Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF0LiERD9Ch
soaking their fur, turning even the taste bitter.

A slightly smaller pig gripped a stick between its front hooves, trying to lift it.
Clack——
The stick fell.
He didn’t make a sound, just bent down to pick it up again.
This time, he squeezed harder— even lifted one hoof slightly.
Thud——
It dropped again.
He stared at the stick for a few seconds, his nose twitching.
I can’t rely on the warriors alone…
He picked the stick up once more, moving even more slowly this time. His front hooves trembled from the tension.
As long as I have a weapon…
Maybe… I can protect myself too.
