Chapter 55
The world outside trembled with unrest.
News of the Heart of Embers' awakening spread like wildfire, stirring old rivalries and new fears.
Eliendara and Kael stood atop the city walls, watching shadows gather beyond the horizon.
"We won't be safe for long," Kael said, his voice heavy.
Eliendara tightened her grip on his hand. "Then we fight. Together."
In the council hall, whispers turned to plans.
Allies and enemies alike sharpened their blades, preparing for the storm.
But the greatest threat was not armies.
It was the darkness within.
The bond between Eliendara and Kael began to fray under the weight of sacrifice and secrets yet unrevealed.
A mysterious figure watched from afar.
Eyes glowing with a chilling light.
"Soon," the figure murmured.
"The flames will burn everything... including them."
