บท 456: Chapter 456: The Unraveling of the Past

As the first rays of dawn filtered through the dense canopy of the Blackfen Swamp, the team's preparations continued in earnest. The Nexus, now fortified with enhanced wards and protections, stood at the center of their efforts, its ethereal glow a beacon amidst the mist-shrouded swamp. Despite the precautions they had taken, the team remained vigilant, knowing that their enemies would likely not rest until they had claimed the Nexus for themselves.

Elara gathered her team around a small campfire, the warmth a welcome relief from the swamp's chill. Morgana, Aric, Cedric, and Elias sat in a circle, their faces illuminated by the flickering flames. Lyra joined them, her expression one of quiet determination.

"We've managed to secure the Nexus for now," Elara began, her voice steady. "But we can't afford to become complacent. We need to plan our next steps and be prepared for any eventuality."
