Zorath frowned slightly at his mother's question, his steps slowing.
Nivara only smiled at his confusion. Without another word, she gently tugged him deeper into the temple.
The golden glow of bioluminescent vines pulsed along the carved stone walls, their soft shimmer casting an otherworldly glow on the intricate murals that stretched above them.
The scent of sacred herbs and burning resins thickened the air as they passed the last of the temple workers, entering a secluded chamber untouched by time.
At the center of the room sat an ancient scroll, its edges lined with shimmering dust—celestial residue from the last awakening, or so the temple elders claimed. With reverence, Nivara unrolled it, revealing elegant symbols etched in ink that seemed to glisten under the flickering torchlight.
Zorath's eyes traced the familiar title.
