Reign found himself in a surreal landscape, a manifestation of his memories and experiences. The shadowy figure overseeing the test explained, "Your trial, leader of this team, is to confront the shadows of your past and the weight of your responsibilities."
As the words echoed, the surroundings morphed, and Reign stood in the midst of pivotal moments from his journey. The air felt heavy with the weight of expectations and the consequences of his decisions. The first scene materialized—a reflection of the fateful expedition where they lost a team member.
Reign's heart clenched as he relived the moment. The fallen comrade's voice echoed, speaking gently to him, and also asking him to take revenge for him. He could see the face of Adam, the one person he had been too late to save, only a second had separated him from saving the young man, and he had failed.
