In the aftermath of the battle, Drex was broken—physically, emotionally. Korrak lay beside him, exhausted but alive. The Beast of Amon was gone, its power shattered by the union of their wills. But the price was steep. The sanctuary was now a crumbling ruin, and Drex had lost something—something far more valuable than just his strength.
Lira had disappeared, leaving only a trail of lies and manipulation. But her betrayal had awakened something in Drex. Something that would drive him forward, no matter what.
As the dawn broke over the horizon, casting a golden glow over the wreckage of the battle, Drex knew one thing: This world would change. He would make sure of it.
The lessons were clear. Power without trust is hollow. Unity—true unity—is the strength that will guide them through the coming trials.
