The dawn of a new day broke with a gentle light filtering through the forest canopy, casting a soft glow over the camp where the Guardians had spent the night. The remnants of the previous evening's ritual still weighed heavily on their minds, and they knew that the remnants of dark magic might pose new challenges.
As the group prepared for the day, Elara gathered her companions for a brief strategy session. "Today, we need to focus on deciphering the runes we found and understanding the full implications of the ritual. The more we know, the better prepared we will be for whatever comes next."
Henry, already poring over the samples and notes, nodded. "We should also consider any potential connections between this ritual and the overall threat of the Weavers. Any patterns or insights we find could be crucial."
