Thane roared as the amulet defied him, its golden light pushing back his darkness. He unleashed a torrent of energy, but the amulet resisted, forming a shimmering shield around Isla and Kai.
Isla, despite her pain, reached out and touched the amulet. "Elara, help us," she whispered.
The golden light intensified, revealing Elara's image. "You are strong, Isla," her voice echoed. "My power is yours. Do not let him take it."
Kai, struggling to stand, urged, "Isla, use the amulet. Channel her power."
Drawing on Elara's magic, Isla focused, the amulet's light surging, forcing Thane's darkness back. Furious, he launched a final, desperate attack. But the amulet, fueled by Elara's spirit and Isla's resolve, held strong—blazing like a star in the abyss.
