The chosen ones returned to Lumina, their minds still reeling from the revelation about Benjo's power. But there was no time to rest. The Council had summoned them for a new trial.
As they entered the Council hall, a sense of unease filled the air. The Council members, powerful beings with overwhelming auras, had sensed a dark energy. Their eyes were drawn to Marco, once known as Moros the Dark Warlock. The dark energy they sensed was emanating from him.
The Council members released their auras, a show of power that made the air in the hall heavy. But before the situation could escalate, Benjo stepped forward.
"Eldora," he addressed the Council leader, his voice steady. "Marco is not a threat. He's one of us. He's proven that time and again."
His words hung in the air, a testament to their unity and trust in each other. The Council members exchanged glances, their auras slowly receding. The trial had begun, and the chosen ones were ready to face it together.
