Valerie's gaze fixated upon the colossal mass of interlocking chains before her, a formidable barrier that seemed to taunt her very presence.

With a heavy sigh escaping her lips, she felt the fire of anger flicker within her, threatening to consume her composure. 

Taking a deep breath, she sought solace in the rhythm of her inhales and exhales, a desperate attempt to regain control over her emotions.

"It's okay Valerie, calm down, it's just the same as last time." Valerie murmured, her voice laced with resignation, her countenance now betraying a newfound calmness. 

"She wants to meddle again, like her sister. Honestly, this is getting exhausting." The weight of her words hung in the air, mingling with the tension that enveloped the room.

Summoning her determination, Valerie steeled herself for the ensuing struggle. Her eyes, once clouded by anger, now sparkled with a fierce determination.
