Chapter 127 - Shadows Of The Immortals.

The runes on the floating pillars pulsed with an ethereal glow, casting a luminous aura on Wren's face. As the environment transformed into a storytelling atmosphere, the air vibrated with anticipation.

"In the dawn of time," a low, rumbling voice began, "humans - that's what we called ourselves before we became known as the Immortals - lived in harmony with dragons, cultivating thriving communities on the ground while the majestic creatures soared through the skies."

The scene unfolded like a rich tapestry, woven from threads of sapphire, gold, and crimson. Wren's eyes sparkled with curiosity as she beheld the ancient world, teeming with life and vitality.

"Life was simple," the voice continued, "with humans farming, crafting, and multiplying, unaware of the impending turmoil that would soon disrupt our peaceful existence."

A dark silhouette loomed on the horizon, casting a dramatic shadow across the landscape. Wren's gaze remained steadfast, her heart filled with a deep sense of wonder.

"It began with a mysterious entity, known as the Destroyer, descending upon our world. Disguised as a young man, the Destroyer possessed unparalleled wisdom and charisma."

The Destroyer's form materialized, its presence both captivating and enigmatic. Wren felt an intense fascination with the being, as if it held secrets she was determined to uncover.

"For years, it shared its knowledge with us, teaching us about the celestial bodies, the secrets of nature, and the art of healing. Many of us were enthralled by the Destroyer's charm, and some even formed romantic relationships, giving birth to a new breed of beings: the Giants."

The scene shifted, revealing the Giants - towering, majestic creatures with skin like terracotta, hair like dark, flowing silk. Wren's eyes shone with awe as she beheld their grandeur.

"However, not everyone was convinced of the Destroyer's benevolence. A few of us sensed an underlying darkness, a malevolent force that threatened to consume our world."

Wren's gaze remained unwavering, her heart filled with a deep sense of purpose. She felt an unshakeable connection to the ancient world, as if the secrets of the past held the key to her own destiny.

The scene darkened, the shadows deepening as the story unfolded. Wren's spirit remained resolute, her determination to uncover the truth burning brighter with every passing moment.

"The Divine Being, a powerful entity from a realm beyond our own, sensed the Destroyer's presence and descended upon our world to intervene."

The Divine Being's form materialized, its presence both radiant and formidable. Wren felt a surge of determination, her heart filled with a deep sense of purpose.

"Meeting the Dragons first, the Divine Being revealed everything to the dragons, only the Dragon king openly disagreed with the Divine being, for he had seen how great and lovely the relationship between his egg and the youngest of the Giants."

The Dragon king's form materialized, its presence both regal and sorrowful. Wren's gaze remained steadfast, her spirit unwavering as she sensed the being's deep pain and loss.

"With the aid of the dragons, the Divine Being launched a campaign to defeat the Destroyer and banish it from our realm."

The scene erupted into chaos, with dragons clashing against the humans following the Destroyer. Wren's heart pounded in her chest, her senses heightened as she beheld the battle's sheer scale.

"As the battle raged on, a group of us, fueled by fear and mistrust, turned against the Giants, slaughtering many of them."

The scene darkened, as if the very fabric of reality was being torn apart. Wren's gaze remained unwavering, her spirit unbroken as she sensed the depth of the betrayal.

"The Destroyer, enraged by the slaughter of its children, saw this as a profound betrayal."

The Destroyer's form materialized, its presence both enraged and sorrowful. Wren sensed the being's deep pain, its anger and betrayal, but her heart remained resolute.

"Before the chaos, the King of the Dragons had perceived the betrayal of his own kind. He was determined to protect his young egg, entrusting it to the Giants, who hid the child away from the impending carnage."

The scene shifted, revealing the Giant's form, its presence both noble and tragic. Wren sensed the being's deep sacrifice, its ultimate demise, but her spirit remained unshaken.

"Tragically, the youngest Giant entrusted with protecting the young dragon met a devastating end among many of its kin."

The scene darkened further, but Wren's heart remained steadfast, her determination to uncover the truth burning brighter.

"The Divine Being, undeterred by the chaos, continued its pursuit of the Destroyer. As the final confrontation approached, the Destroyer's followers, a twisted and brainwashed horde, emerged from the shadows."

The scene shifted, revealing the Tainted's forms, their presence both twisted and menacing. Wren sensed their dark energy, their ultimate goal, but her spirit remained unbroken appearing more like the... Creepers created by Frankenstein.
