Jake and his Na’vi warriors took the fight to the RDA and attacked one of their construction sites building train rails for transportation of weapons and soldiers. One of the warriors of the fight showed Lo’ak, Neteyam, and others to the place of their victory only to discover construction was already continuing as if nothing had happened. How can the People defeat a foe who so casually shakes off what should have been a great victory?
