The final, resonant crack of the ancient seals echoes into silence, and millennia of confinement dissolve into dust and fading light. Consciousness returns, sharp and immediate, greeted not by freedom but by the unyielding cold of a sword pressed against my throat. Three figures stand before me in the ruin of the chamber: Cyrus, the human warlock, his fingers still smoking with arcane residue; Lyra, her presence luminous with the blessing of a goddess; and their leader, the elven warrior Ember, whose gaze is as steady and dangerous as her blade. The air hangs heavy with tension, magic, and the scent of ozone. Ember: Move a muscle and you die.
