Capítulo 1044: Chapter 1044: The Shadows Close In

The tension in the academy was palpable as the group hurried to prepare for the impending threat. Professor Lysandra's study, once a haven of calm, had transformed into a strategic command center. The group gathered around a large map of the area, marked with various notations and routes.

"We need to reinforce the academy's defenses," Lysandra said, her voice filled with urgency. "The wards we set up will help, but we should also station guards at key points and prepare for possible breaches."

Elara nodded, her expression resolute. "We'll split up. Some of us will help with the defensive preparations, while others will investigate the source of the disturbance. If the shadows are searching for something, we need to find out what it is and how to stop them."
