The shadow realm : living in dream
As they merged their shadows with the wall, the trio vanished into the Shadow Realm, each plunged into a solitary journey. Unaware of what lay ahead, they stepped into the unknown, leaving behind the faint glow of reality. The darkness enveloped them like a shroud, heavy with secrets.
Advaith closed his eyes, steeling himself for the abyss. When he opened them again, he found himself in his bedroom, surrounded by familiar comforts that now seemed surreal. The warm sunlight streaming through the window cast an ethereal glow.
A knock on the door broke the silence, shattering the stillness. "Advaith, wake up!" his mother's gentle voice called, her tone laced with concern. The sound sent a shiver down his spine.
He sat up with a start, rubbing his eyes in confusion, as if awakening from a dream within a dream. His mother entered, her face etched with worry. "What's wrong, dear? You look like you've seen a ghost," she said.
