Lirien stood tall, the Amulet's power coursing through her veins. The dark entity loomed before her, its presence suffocating. King Ryker's eyes gleamed with malevolence as he controlled the creature.
"You fools," King Ryker sneered. "This entity will crush your spirits and shatter your resolve."
Arin charged forward, his sword flashing in the dim light. Lyra followed, her magic swirling around her. Mira Shadowglow watched with interest, her eyes fixed on Lirien.
The battle raged on, the dark entity unleashing devastating attacks. Lirien countered with the Amulet's power, but the entity seemed to absorb the energy.
"We need to find its weakness," Arin shouted above the din.
Lyra nodded, her eyes scanning the entity. "I think I see a pattern in its attacks."
Lirien focused on Lyra's words, analyzing the entity's movements. A glimmer of hope formed in her mind.
"I have an idea," Lirien said, her voice firm. "Arin, distract the entity. Lyra, prepare a binding spell."
As Arin charged forward, Lyra began chanting. Lirien reached deep within herself, calling upon the Amulet's power.
The entity's next attack would decide the fate of their quest...
