Calen Storm and Elara Wynn slowed their pace, their eyes scanning every corner of the little settlement. The atmosphere here felt starkly different from that of other villages within nearby kingdoms.

Traces of The Past
“Are you really going to start the investigation now, Calen? Your condition hasn’t fully recovered, and you’ve only just returned to Vynoria’s palace. I’m certain you’re still not well,” Elara admonished when she heard Calen’s decision. Worry lingered in her voice.Calen looked deeply into Elara’s eyes. “As you said before, we must act in this matter, Queen Elara. Now we must divide our duties. You remain in the palace to watch over Avenya and ensure stability within the court. For the time being, let the people take refuge here in the palace, and erect a protective barrier for them. Make sure every one of them remains safe. Do you understand, my Queen?”“Very well, I’ll do all of that. But what about you? What exactly are you going to do? Are you truly leaving the palace now to search for the cause of these disasters?”Hearing Elara’s question, Calen nodded firmly. He couldn’t sit idly by in the palace while the people outside blamed Avenya for the calamities that plagued the land. H
The Mistery of Wild Energy
Calen Storm became the bridge between the three elements and Avenya’s body. He channeled the elements through himself, turning his own body into the medium so that they would not destroy one another. He gathered his inner energy as the foundation, allowing the transfer of energy to flow into Avenya, even though it meant sacrificing his own body.“Let us finish this final step. No struggle should end in vain. Avenya must be healed, and these three elements must unite for that.”Elara Wynn, Carmen, and Liora could only watch as Calen Storm carried out the process. Worry was etched on their faces, seeing the sacrifice he was making, one that clearly endangered his life.“Calen is offering himself as the medium between the elements and Avenya’s body, Your Majesty. This will drain him and tear him apart from the inside,” Carmen whispered.The process was anything but easy. Calen’s body seemed to burn from within, blood
The Bridge of Unity
Moments later, Elara Wynn awoke from her rest. She saw Calen Storm sitting beside her, his vigilant eyes never leaving her. It seemed Calen had not rested at all, choosing instead to watch over Elara and make sure she was truly safe.“You’re awake? Do you feel better now?”Calen helped her sit up, his voice gentle yet filled with concern.Elara nodded softly. “Yes, I feel much better now, Calen. My strength has returned. I believe we can continue our journey.”“Are you certain? If you still need to rest, we can remain here a little longer. I will stay by your side,” Calen offered, unwilling to see her exhaust herself again during the journey.“I’m fine, Calen. We must prepare and return to Vynoria’s palace as soon as possible. We cannot waste any more time, Avenya is waiting for us,” Elara replied with a calm smile, her voice steady and reassuring.At last, Calen yielded to he
A Village Struck by Plague
On their journey back to the Kingdom of Vynoria, Calen Storm, Elara Wynn, and their entourage passed through a small village.

Ethereal Flame
The council of the Eryndall kingdom observed how Calen Storm faced the chamber of illusion with the strength of his spirit. They were impressed by the determination he had shown, even though they had revealed the terrible risks behind the choice he made.“Calen Storm still chose his daughter and his wife. He has passed our trial by fire. Should we grant him the Ethereal Flame now? It seems the trial he endured has been enough.”One of the council members gave the judgment, and the others agreed. At last, they decided to hand over the Ethereal Flame, just as Calen Storm had requested.***The illusions faded from Calen Storm’s sight. He turned back, only to find that the exit had disappeared. Perhaps he was not yet allowed to leave, or perhaps another challenge still awaited him.But then, a flame of eternity appeared, drawing near and wrapping itself around his body. Calen Storm was startled, yet even more astonished when he reali
The Illusion
After overcoming several obstacles, they finally arrived at the Fire Temple, the very heart of the Kingdom of Eryndall, perched atop Mount Fawlyn. This was their final destination, where they needed to obtain the Ethereal Flame, the last element they had to gather.Calen Storm and Elara Wynn immediately approached the elders, bowing respectfully. They presented the offerings they had prepared beforehand, placing them into the elders’ hands.“Your journey to this place must not have been easy, and surely there is an important reason behind your arrival. Does it concern the condition of your daughter?”One of the elders struck directly at Calen with the question, mentioning his daughter, Avenya. Both Calen and Elara nodded in acknowledgment.“Indeed, I and Queen Elara have come to seek your aid. Our daughter has been poisoned, and in order to heal her we require a greater force, Primordial Energy. To form it, three
