章節 103: Chapter 53: Guardians of the Gate

The company's journey led them to the edge of a sprawling desert, stretching as far as the eye could see. It was a desolate and unforgiving place, its shifting sands hiding ancient secrets and treacherous perils. In the distance, they could see the outline of towering gates—the entrance to the realm they sought.

As they approached the gates, they realized they were not alone. Standing before them were two colossal figures, their forms blending with the sand and stone. These were the Guardians of the Gate, ancient beings entrusted with the protection of the realm beyond.

The Guardians were towering and formidable, their eyes gleaming with an otherworldly light. They regarded the company with an air of caution, testing their resolve and worthiness. The Guardians were bound by a sacred duty, allowing only those who proved themselves worthy to pass through the gates.
