As they left the Altar of Resonance, a gentle breeze swept through the clearing, carrying with it a faint, melodic hum, almost as if the realm itself was bidding them farewell.
Cruzer and Elara walked side by side, their hands still entwined, and each step felt lighter as if their connection with the realm had lifted a weight they hadn't even realized they carried.
The atmosphere had shifted, and as they moved forward, the realm seemed to welcome them—walls once cloaked in shadows were now bathed in a gentle glow, and even the once-tense silence felt more like a watchful calm.
Just beyond the altar, they noticed a grand doorway, intricately carved with symbols representing each element they had encountered: fire, water, wind, and now, earth.
The doorway emanated a steady warmth, hinting at something sacred and ancient within.
