As Tyler and his companions ventured through the narrow passageway, a dense black mist began to envelope them. The air grew heavy and the visibility diminished to mere feet in front of them. Each step forward felt like wading through a cloud, the darkness pressing in from all sides. Yet, the moment they stepped through the other side, the world transformed. The mist cleared abruptly, and they were greeted by the radiant warmth of a brilliant sun. The sky was a deep azure, dotted with fluffy white clouds. It was as if they had walked through a gateway into another realm.
