The moonlight bathed the room as Lisa sat by the window, her heart still racing from the events of the previous day. She had never imagined herself drawn into a hidden world, a realm where her mysterious lineage and the strange marks slowly appearing on her arm would make her tremble with uncertainty.
A knock at the door startled her. Kael stepped into the room, his eyes glowing with seriousness.
"Lisa… we need to talk about what's happening," Kael said, his voice steady and firm.
Lisa looked at him, her eyes full of questions, yet deep inside, she felt a strange certainty she couldn't explain.
"I… I don't know what I'm supposed to do next," she whispered.
Kael crouched beside her, gently holding her hand. "Don't be afraid. We'll get through this together… but first, you must embrace your power, and promise me you won't let the darkness take over your heart."
His words brought warmth and a sense of responsibility to Lisa. She nodded with determination. That night, they forged a pact under the moonlight — a vow to fight side by side, even if the world tried to tear them apart.
