The sun was beginning to set as Akira, Kael, Maya, Rylan, and Blacky set up camp just outside the ruins of Kaleth. The encounter with the Abyssal Phantom had left them weary, but the discovery of the artifact of Sloth had also given them a glimmer of hope. They gathered around the fire, its flickering light casting shadows on their determined faces.
As they settled in, Rylan pulled out an ancient tome he had taken from the palace library. "We need to understand more about the Seven Deadly Sins and how Valerius is using them," he began, his voice steady despite the exhaustion.
"The Seven Deadly Sins are powerful concepts that have existed for centuries," Rylan explained. "Each sin represents a fundamental aspect of human nature that, when corrupted, can lead to great evil. They are: Wrath, Sloth, Greed, Lust, Envy, Pride, and Gluttony."
Maya leaned in, her curiosity piqued. "But how do they work? How does Valerius use them to create Phantoms?"
