The sky over Elandor was turning orange as the moon slowly moved to cover the sun. The eclipse was about to begin, marking the start of a new phase in the long-standing conflict between Elysiel and Seraphis, the fairy queen and the king of the underworld. The air around the castle was thick with anticipation and fear, as the shadows lengthened, as if the underworld itself was about to engulf the light that Elandor represented.
Elysiel gazed at the horizon, feeling the chill creeping in with the gradual darkening of the sky. She had always known that the eclipse symbolized more than just an astronomical event; it was a representation of the constant struggle between light and darkness, the fragile balance she and Seraphis were now trying to maintain. But today, the eclipse would also mark the beginning of an inevitable battle.
