    The objects at the Fortress see invading forces approaching and surrounding their refuge. Most have given up hope, but some refuse to submit to the invading machines. They will barricade themselves in the innermost core of the Fortress as a last stand of resistance. They will either be relieved if their exiled leaders return or achieve martyrdom if the walls are torn down. United together in the heart of the Fortress, they will face their end with equal dignity and force. If defeated, their colorful decorated bodies will emerge from the ruins as a symbol of their undying spirit of resistance.
