บท 293: The Glowing Stone

At this moment, Ethan carefully examined the stone statue and noticed that its design was incredibly peculiar. 

The statue's hands were clasped together in a prayer-like gesture, and in the center of these clasped hands, there was an identical recess for placing a stone, just like the one he had found earlier.

Could it be that there was another stone hidden here, and someone had taken it as well? 

The thought left Ethan feeling somewhat frustrated. 

It seemed that he had arrived too late; the previous individual had taken both stones and left him with nothing.

If there was another stone hidden within the smaller chamber, where could the second stone be now? 

Could this second stone be the key to unlocking the seal? 

While this possibility seemed plausible, Ethan couldn't shake the feeling that something was amiss.
