Quackville's newfound tranquility remained fragile as Detective Mallard, now the acknowledged guardian, patrolled the town with an air of vigilance. Yet, beneath the surface, an invisible veil of shadows lingered—a quiet prelude to an impending mystery that whispered through the reeds and danced in the moonlit ripples of the pond.

Detective Mallard, undeterred, invoked the ancient knowledge he had acquired and rallied the guardians to stand united against the encroaching darkness.
