Nyx, Drakonis, Kyros, and the unconscious Varyn were led by Elyndra to a grand hall where the Astral Council convened. The hall was vast, its walls lined with shimmering crystals and ancient runes that seemed to pulse with life.

As they entered, Nyx felt the weight of countless eyes upon them. Seated in a semicircle were the council members, each one representing a different aspect of the Astral Realm's power and wisdom. Elyndra took her place among them and gestured for Nyx to step forward.

"Princess Nyx of Eclipsarum, you stand before the Astral Council. We have awaited your arrival," Elyndra announced.

Nyx took a deep breath and stepped forward, her heart pounding. "I seek your aid in our fight against the Demon King and his pillars. My world is in grave danger, and we need your help to stand a chance against them."

Before the council could respond, a sudden ripple of shadows filled the room. The council members stood in alarm as Varyn emerged from the darkness, using his power of Shadow Surge to arrive in the hall.

"Stay back!" one of the council members shouted, readying a spell.

"Wait!" Nyx cried, stepping between Varyn and the council. "He's with us. Varyn is an ally."

The council members hesitated, their magic still crackling in the air. Elyndra raised a hand, signaling them to stand down. "Princess Nyx, explain."

Nyx quickly recounted Varyn's offer to join their cause and his crucial knowledge about the Demon King's plans. "He has vital information and skills that can help us turn the tide," she finished.

Elyndra studied Varyn for a moment before nodding. "Very well. We shall hear him out."

As the tension eased, Varyn stepped forward, his gaze steady. "Thank you, Princess. Council members, I can help you in this fight. I have faced the pillars before and know their strengths and weaknesses."

The council members exchanged glances before one of them spoke. "We are prepared to assist you, Princess Nyx, with our army and resources. This is not just your fight, but a battle for the balance of all realms."

Varyn nodded. "I can take on three of the pillars myself. Aric and Magnus caught me off guard because I did not expect them to be pillars. If I had retaliated then, I could have destroyed the whole town. I will not make that mistake again."

Elyndra turned to Nyx. "With our combined forces, we stand a chance. We must strategize carefully to take down the pillars and ultimately the Demon King."

As they began to discuss their plans, the doors to the hall opened once more. Kyros, the rogue who had sworn his loyalty to Nyx, entered the room. His presence brought a sense of reassurance to Nyx.

"I will fight Aric," Kyros declared, his voice firm. "He betrayed us, and I will make him pay for his treachery."

Elyndra nodded approvingly. "A noble choice. You will need more than just your skills to face him."

She gestured to another council member, who stepped forward with a small, glowing orb. "This is a Light Spirit. It will aid you in your battle, enhancing your abilities and protecting you from the dark magic of the pillars."

Kyros accepted the orb, feeling its warmth and power resonate with him. "Thank you. I won't let you down."

With the council's support and their forces gathered, the group laid out their strategies. Maps and plans were spread across a large table as they discussed their approach.

"Varyn, you'll target the three pillars you're confident you can defeat," Nyx instructed. "Kyros, you'll take on Aric with the aid of the Light Spirit. Drakonis and I will provide support where needed and protect Sylvaris."

Elyndra nodded. "Our forces will provide support, ensuring the safety of Sylvaris and assisting where needed."

Varyn spoke up, his voice filled with determination. "We need to be ready for anything. The pillars will not go down easily, but with our combined strength, we can overcome them."

"The demon king would be resurrected 2 months from now and nyx will turn eighteen on that day too we can't attack them head on without the King's resurrection as there will be barrier there protecting the demon shrine even I don't know what those pillars are planning have they even found the proper vessel for the king we can only attack them after the resurrection so till then hone your skills " Varyn said.

"Let's do our best and get this war over without any casualties " Nyx said.

As the meeting progressed, Nyx felt a renewed sense of hope. They had allies, a plan, and the resolve to see it through. The fight ahead would be fierce, but they were ready to face it together.

As they finalized their plans, the council members blessed each of them with protection spells and additional resources. The weight of the impending battle was heavy, but the sense of unity and purpose was stronger.

Nyx looked around at her companions—Varyn, Kyros, Drakonis, and the council members—and felt a surge of determination. They were ready to face the pillars and the Demon King. The future of Eclipsarum, Sylvaris, and the balance of all realms depended on their success.

And so, with their strategies set and their hearts steeled, they prepared to march into the battle that would determine the fate of their world and beyond.
