Chapter 329: Chapter 329: The Elemental Crossing

Elara, Kael, and Morgana emerged from the Verdant Forest and began their journey toward the Citadel of the Elements. The sun was high in the sky, and the air was filled with a sense of urgency and purpose. Their path took them through rolling hills and across wide plains, the landscape gradually shifting from lush green to barren and rocky terrain as they approached the elemental boundaries.

The Citadel of the Elements was rumored to be a place of great power, a nexus where the forces of nature and magic intertwined. According to the ancient texts, it was hidden deep within a treacherous landscape where the elements themselves were the guardians.

After days of travel, they arrived at the base of a mountain range that seemed to stretch endlessly toward the sky. The mountains were jagged and imposing, their peaks lost in the clouds. The air was cooler here, and the winds howled with a relentless, almost otherworldly intensity.
