Capítulo 48: Professor Draven's Test (4) The Students' Difficulties

Elara sat at her desk, staring intently at the supplementary test before her. Her eyes traced the elegant lines and symbols that formed the intricate magic circles, each one demanding her understanding and interpretation. The soft glow of the enchanted lamp cast a warm light over her workspace, illuminating the parchment and the assortment of books she had pulled from the shelves in search of answers. Her mind, however, felt as blank as the pages she had yet to fill with notes.

She sighed, rubbing her temples. It was already midnight, and she had slept earlier, hoping to find inspiration in her dreams. Yet here she was, no closer to solving the puzzle Professor Draven had set for her. The rest of the students had likely faced different, perhaps simpler, challenges. The thought gnawed at her, but she pushed it aside, focusing instead on the task at hand.
