Chapter 440: Chapter 440: The Unseen Threat

The expedition to the vulnerable region marked on their map began with an air of determined urgency. Elara and her team, having meticulously planned their approach, set out at dawn, their spirits buoyed by the resolve to confront the dark forces gathering in the area.

The terrain they traversed was diverse and rugged, shifting from dense forests to rolling hills and eventually to a more barren, windswept landscape. As they traveled, the atmosphere grew increasingly tense, with the Heart of the Veil's energy occasionally flaring as if reacting to unseen forces.

Cedric, leading the way, was vigilant. "We're nearing the outskirts of the affected region. We should expect heightened activity from the darkness. Keep your senses sharp."

Morgana, consulting her tome, nodded. "According to our research, the darkness manifests through corrupted ley lines and concentrations of malevolent energy. We should look for signs of these disturbances."
