The Ritual of Light reached its climax as Elandra's incantation intensified. The shard, now placed at the center of the crystal chamber, began to vibrate and crack under the pressure of the light magic. Aric, feeling the amulet's power surge, joined his energy with Elandra's, creating a harmonious blend of light and hope.
The shard shattered, releasing a blinding flash of pure light. The darkness within it was dispelled, and the malevolent energy dissipated into the ether. The cultists, deprived of their dark power, fled in disarray, their plans thwarted.
In the aftermath, the Crystal Caverns seemed to hum with a newfound serenity. The victory was significant, but it also served as a reminder that vigilance was always necessary. Aric and his friends had prevented a disaster, but they knew that the shadows would never truly vanish.
