Chapter 459: Chapter 459: The Chamber of Horrors

As the first light of dawn filtered through the thick canopy of the Blackfen Swamp, Elara and her team pushed forward through the treacherous terrain. The mist that had shrouded the swamp in darkness during the night had begun to lift, revealing the tangled, twisted vegetation that surrounded them.

The air was still heavy with the remnants of their recent battle, the oppressive atmosphere seeming to press down on them as they made their way deeper into the swamp. Each step was a struggle through the muck and mire, but the team's resolve was unwavering.

Lyra led the way, her familiarity with the swamp's layout proving invaluable. Despite her previous unease, she navigated the labyrinth of trees and vines with confidence, her keen eyes scanning for any signs of danger.
