章 25: 25 Castle of Forgotten Echoes

The castle's corridors were dark, narrow, and deeply oppressive.

Zoe felt the weight of the stone around her, pressing in with every step.

Snacks padded beside her, his wings rustling softly.

At least she wasn't alone, and his presence brought some comfort—a little light in all the heavy gloom.

The air was thick, like it was trying to suffocate them, and the flickering torchlight barely helped. She felt on edge, like something could jump out at any moment.

Snacks glanced up at her every few steps, his eyes glowing faintly in the dim light as if sensing her unease.

At least her Snack Vault was there to keep her calm; just the idea of chocolate stashed safely away was enough to help her breathe a bit easier.

They moved cautiously, each of them scanning the shadows for movement.

The atmosphere felt as though it was about to crush them at any second.

Even Gavin, usually all optimism and bravery, had a wary glint in his eyes.

Hey there, Snack Enthusiasts!

Thanks for diving into another chapter of Zoe’s wild, snack-powered adventures! I had a lot of fun adding new dimensions to Roderick’s personality this time around—he’s long overdue for a bit more spotlight, and what better way than with some over-the-top granola bar theatrics? Also, I hope you enjoyed the eerie vibes of the castle—I wanted to give that unsettling sense of "something’s wrong here" without diving too dark (we’re still about the fun!).

As always, Zoe’s going to keep snarking her way through these challenges, and she might even have a few surprises in the next chapter… especially once those throne room doors open. I promise, it’s going to get interesting!

If you enjoyed this chapter, leave a comment or let me know your favorite snack (I’ll make sure Zoe has it in the Vault). And remember—being a Snack Overlord is a full-time job, so don’t forget to stock up!

Until next time, keep munching and adventuring!
