The Legacy of Light (Chaelisa)

C10: the old sage

The search for the old sage led them through dense forests and across vast plains. They had to stand their ground against hostile creatures and the challenges of nature. The journey was long and arduous, but nothing could break their will. Finally, after several weeks, they reached a remote hut deep in the heart of the forest.

Exhausted and not without nervousness, they pressed the door knocker shaped like a wolf's head.

It only took a moment for an elderly man with white hair and piercing eyes to open the door. He greeted them with a mixture of curiosity and caution. "I have been expecting you," he said in a voice that spoke of wisdom and experience. "You are the ones who are to fulfill the prophecy."

Lisa and Roseanne told the sage about their journey and the artifact. He listened attentively and finally nodded. "You've come a long way, but the hardest part is yet to come. The darkness you must fight is more powerful than anything you have experienced so far. You still have a lot to learn before you are ready to face the darkness. Stay with me for a while and I will teach you."

The sage taught them ancient magical rituals and showed them how to combine their powers to activate the artifact. He spoke of the importance of trust and sacrifice and reminded them that true strength comes from the heart.

So as not to be a burden to the old man, the two of them helped him around the house, so Lisa went hunting and Roseanne prepared the food, which the old man seemed delighted with.

After several months of intensive preparation, Lisa and Roseanne felt ready to face the darkness. The sage gave them his blessing and handed them an amulet to protect them on their journey. With renewed confidence and determination, they set off into the depths of the earth.
