章節 4: Chapter 4: Trials of Power
The Council of Elders huddled in whispered deliberation, their eyes fixed upon Kael. After a brief exchange, the elderly woman stepped forward once again, her voice carrying an air of solemnity.
"Kael, we have heard your resolve, and we recognize the courage that burns within you," she began. "But to prove yourself worthy of our guidance, you must undergo a series of trials. These trials will test your strength, your resourcefulness, and your ability to navigate the treacherous paths that lie ahead."
Kael straightened his posture, a flicker of determination crossing his face. "I accept your trials," he said firmly. "I will face whatever challenges you set before me."
The Council nodded in approval, their eyes filled with a mix of expectation and hope. The elderly woman gestured toward a mystical doorway that materialized beside them, shimmering with arcane symbols.
"The first trial awaits you beyond that threshold," she explained. "Step through, and you shall embark on a journey that will test your mettle."
With a resolute nod, Kael approached the doorway. As he crossed its threshold, a surge of energy enveloped him, transporting him to a different realm altogether—a realm bathed in an ethereal light, where floating islands dotted the sky above.
Kael found himself standing on a platform suspended amidst the clouds. The expanse of sky and endless void below filled him with a sense of awe and vulnerability. But there was no time for hesitation; the trial had begun.
Before him stood a formidable figure—an armored warrior, his gaze unwavering, wielding a massive blade crackling with energy. The warrior's voice boomed through the air, filling the space between them.
"To prove your strength, you must defeat me," the warrior declared. "But be warned, I shall test not only your combat prowess but also your ability to strategize and adapt."

The armored figure's visage shifted, revealing a knowing smile. "You have bested me, young wanderer," he acknowledged. "Your skill and adaptability mark you as a worthy contender."
