They encountered creatures born of nightmare—eyes like molten gold, claws as sharp as blades, and howls that froze blood in the veins. The knight moved with an otherworldly grace, Elias struggling to keep up.
At the heart of the cavern, a massive chasm opened, filled with writhing shadows. "This is where the curse began," the knight murmured. "The only way to end it is to confront the darkness itself."
