After a long night filled with laughter and ridiculous stories, the village began to calm. The soft rays of morning sunlight brushed across the leaves and small buildings, signaling a new day that brought hope and a new journey for Alaric and his companions. In Angela's forge, the faint sound of metal clanging could be heard. Angela was finishing her last task—repairing Alaric's small sword, which had been damaged during their last battle.
Outside the forge, Alaric, Helius, Aria, and Larazaro waited patiently. The morning air was peaceful, yet an unspoken sadness lingered among them. They knew their time in this village was coming to an end, and it was time to continue their journey toward a greater destiny—defeating the Demon King.
