The brightness was blinding, an ethereal glow that seemed to emanate from every corner of the cave-like place. I squinted, trying to make sense of my surroundings. As I walked forward, the light intensified, revealing a podium at the center of the cavernous space. Around it, people dressed in pristine white garments sat in a circle, their faces solemn, chanting in unison.
"The soul is lost and the mind is empty, but a sound of redemption shall come, and freedom shall be served!"
The rhythmic chant echoed through the cavern, filling the air with an eerie resonance. I couldn't help but feel a strange mix of curiosity and trepidation as I observed the seated figures. Their eyes were fixed on the podium, and their voices melded into a haunting chorus that reverberated through the cave.
