After winning the battle, Ethan focused on the crystal that had generated all the commotion. He was overcome with wonder and reverence as he neared the pedestal. The gem sent out a soft, pulsing glow that gave off a glimpse of its vast power.
Ethan extended his hand and carefully took the crystal in his palms. He felt a rush of energy—energy that had the power to transform the world—as its warmth coursed through him. But Ethan was aware of the heavy responsibility that came with such power.
Ethan made a choice, his face filled with determination. The crystal belonged in the hands of people who would utilize it for enlightenment, peace, and advancement—for the greater good. It wouldn't be lost or end up in the wrong hands.
Ethan and his team exited the room and returned to the surface while carrying the crystal and the rewards they had received. They arrived back to the Siren's Call with a sense of contentment and success in their hearts.
Ethan took one more glance back at the Lost Isle as the ship sailed away, appreciative of the experience, the difficulties faced, and the friendships made along the way. They had not only found financial wealth, but also treasure in the knowledge they had gained and the unquenchable spirit of discovery that blazed inside them.
Ethan knew that their adventures would continue after the gem was securely tucked away. The earth was enormous and full of unsolved mysteries and marvels.
