AS they emerged from the portal, they found themselves in a sprawling ruin illuminated mostly by the soft glow of countless stars and a pale, distant moon overhead. The remains of a vast city stretched out around them, with buildings that had long since crumbled, their once-sturdy walls now cracked and overrun with vines that glowed faintly.
The ground was uneven, scattered with pieces of stone and broken tiles, remnants of structures that spoke of a forgotten era. The air was still, carrying a faint, metallic tang. Here and there, small lights flickered among the ruins, like fireflies moving in the dark, hinting at the possibility of unseen watchers in the abandoned streets.
"It's so spooky here," Eclipse said, clinging to Luo Yan and acting like he's scared.
