Chapter 382: Chapter 382: The Clash of Light and Shadow

The chamber erupted into chaos as Nyx, the Weaver of Nightmares, coalesced fully into its fearsome form. The air grew thick with dark energy, making it difficult to breathe, and the Heartstone's light flickered as if struggling against the encroaching darkness. Elara, Elias, Morgana, Varian, and Thalia stood resolute, their combined strength and willpower their only shield against the overwhelming shadow.

Elara gripped the Aetherblade tightly, its light shining defiantly against the pervasive gloom. The blade seemed to hum with anticipation, its power resonating with Elara's resolve. She stepped forward, her voice steady despite the fear that clawed at her insides. "We are not afraid of you, Nyx. The Heartstone will be protected, and your darkness will be vanquished."
