Chapter 3 - The Council and the Prophecy

Lyra and Benjo finally arrived at the grand city of Luminara, the heart of Lumina. They were brought before the council, a group of wise and powerful beings who governed Lumina. Benjo couldn't help but feel a bit overwhelmed as he stood before them.

"Welcome, Benjo, the chosen one," said Eldora, the council's leader. "You have been brought here by the prophecy. You, an ordinary man from another world, are destined to save Lumina."

Benjo looked at Eldora in disbelief. "Me? Save Lumina? There must be some mistake."

"No mistake," Eldora said firmly. "The prophecy has chosen you, and you have already proven yourself by retrieving the Stone of Courage."

Benjo glanced at Lyra, who gave him an encouraging nod. He took a deep breath, clutching the Stone of Courage tightly. "Alright," he said, "I'll do my best."

The council assigned Lyra to be Benjo's guide and protector. Together, they were to face the various trials that lay ahead and ultimately save Lumina from an impending doom that the prophecy had foretold.

As Benjo left the council's hall, he felt a mix of fear and excitement. He was far from home, far from his ordinary life, and far from being a hero. But he knew he had to try. He had a prophecy to fulfill, a world to save, and a destiny to meet.
