Aeron returned to the world of men, a hero. He was greeted with celebration and praise. People from all over the world came to see the man who had defeated Malkor.
Aeron enjoyed the attention, but he knew that his work was not done. There would always be darkness in the world, and he was determined to fight it.
Aeron continued to train new warriors to fight the darkness. He also established a new order of knights, dedicated to protecting the world from evil.
Aeron traveled the world, searching for any sign of a new threat. He knew that Malkor was gone, but he also knew that there were other dark forces out there.
One day, Aeron received a message from one of his knights. The knight told him that a new evil was rising in the land. A powerful sorcerer had gathered an army of darkness, and he threatened to conquer the world.
Aeron knew that he had to stop this new evil. He gathered his knights and set out to find the sorcerer.
Aeron and his knights traveled for days, until they finally came to the sorcerer's stronghold. The stronghold was located in a dark and forbidding forest.
Aeron and his knights approached the stronghold cautiously. They knew that they were in danger.
Suddenly, the sorcerer appeared on the ramparts of the stronghold. He was a tall, gaunt figure with a long white beard. He was wearing a black robe, and his eyes glowed red like embers.
"Welcome, Aeron," the sorcerer said. "I have been expecting you."
Aeron drew his sword. "I am not afraid of you," he said.
"You should be," the sorcerer said. "I am more powerful than Malkor ever was."
Aeron raised his sword. "I will defeat you," he said.
The sorcerer laughed. "We shall see," he said.
The sorcerer cast a spell, and a wall of fire appeared between him and Aeron and his knights. Aeron raised the Staff of Light and blasted the wall of fire with a beam of light. The wall of fire disappeared.
Aeron and his knights charged at the sorcerer. The sorcerer cast a spell, but Aeron and his knights deflected it with their swords.
Aeron and the sorcerer fought fiercely. They were both powerful sorcerers, and the battle was evenly matched.
But Aeron had the Staff of Light, and the sorcerer did not.
Aeron struck the sorcerer with the Staff of Light, and the sorcerer staggered back. Aeron struck the sorcerer again, and this time the sorcerer fell to the ground.
The sorcerer was defeated. Aeron had saved the world once again.
Aeron stood over the sorcerer and looked at him.
"It is over," he said.
The sorcerer looked up at Aeron with hatred in his eyes. "I will be back," he said.
Aeron smiled. "No," he said. "You will not."
Aeron raised the Staff of Light and blasted the sorcerer with a beam of light. The sorcerer screamed in pain and disappeared in a flash of light.
The sorcerer was finally defeated. Aeron had saved the world from his evil once and for all.
Aeron lowered the Staff of Light and looked around. The stronghold was empty. The sorcerer's army was gone.
Aeron had won. He had saved the world again.
Aeron smiled and turned to walk away. He knew that there would always be darkness in the world, but he also knew that there would always be people who were willing to fight against it.
Aeron was one of those people. He would always be ready to fight for what is right, no matter the cost.
