章 602: Chapter 602: The Shadow Shard Strikes Back

The Citadel stood under the tranquil sky, the light of Lumina still glowing softly in the aftermath of their victory. But beneath the surface, tension simmered. The leaders of the resistance knew that their reprieve was only temporary; the Shadow Shard was far from defeated.

The Mirror of Aether now rested in the center of the table, its surface no longer glowing but still radiating a subtle warmth, a reminder of the power they had unleashed.

"We've pushed it back, but we can't afford to be complacent," Selene began, her voice steady but tinged with urgency. "The Shadow Shard will regroup and strike again, and next time, it will be even more determined to break through."
