Chapter 11 - The Veiled Threshold - Chapter 11: The Guardian's Return

Just as the Shadow Walker was about to strike, a figure appeared in the doorway, blocking his path.It was Elias, his spectral form glowing with an ethereal light. He had broken free of his bonds, defying the Shadow Walker's magic."You will not harm her," Elias said, his voice filled with righteous anger. "I will not allow it."Elias lunged at the Shadow Walker, engaging him in a spectral battle. The two spirits clashed, their powers colliding, the ritual chamber trembling with the force of their conflict.Sera watched in awe as Elias fought with a ferocity she had never seen before. He was protecting her, sacrificing himself to save her.
