The oppressive weight of the trial began to lift, leaving behind an eerie tranquility that settled over the battlefield. The once-roaring storm within me had transformed into a calm river, a testament to the control I had attained.
A faint ripple in the air heralded the arrival of Mahaguru Shukracharya. His form emerged from the shadows, his expression as inscrutable as ever. His piercing gaze scanned the field before settling on me.
"You have surpassed my expectations, Meghnad," he said, his voice carrying the same unyielding tone that had guided me through these years. "To tame the chaos within and without is a feat few can claim. Yet, your journey has only begun."
