บท 89: Guardian of Elaria

We stood in front of the stone door, the final barrier before the completion of our mission. The cave had been relentless, testing our strength, endurance, and unity. Now, with the last challenge in front of us, I felt a mix of anticipation and determination.

Morgana studied the runes carefully. "These runes correspond to the elements: earth, air, fire, and water. If we activate them in the right order, the door should open."

"Okay," I said, my voice steady. "Let's do this."

We each took a position by one of the runes, waiting for Morgana's signal. "Start with earth," she instructed. "Then air, fire, and finally water."

I pressed the earth rune, feeling it warm under my hand. Lilith followed with the air rune, then Baelgor with fire, and Morgana with water. As the last rune was activated, the runes on the door began to glow brighter, and with a rumbling sound, the door slowly began to open.
