Stepping cautiously, the trio entered an immense chamber, its vastness making them feel minuscule. The blue flames in the sconces gave the room an otherworldly glow, revealing walls that seemed to stretch endlessly upwards. The center of the chamber was dominated by the raised platform, and atop it, the massive egg. It wasn't just an egg, Johan realized, it was a beacon, its patterns rhythmically pulsing like a heartbeat. 'Is this the heart of the floor?' he wondered.
Danny, his eyes reflecting the eerie luminescence, whispered, "There's something... alive in there."
Ken's ghoul senses were on high alert, his gaze never leaving the egg. "We need to be careful. This...this is unlike anything we've faced before."
Johan took a deep breath, his mind already trying to decipher the egg's significance. "It's almost as if..." But before he could finish his thought, the chamber's tranquility was shattered.
