Chapter 11: The Hidden Threat of Moonfall Lake(1)
---
Scene: Magrion’s Evolution & A Rising Threat
(The air hums with energy as Flarecub’s body is engulfed in fiery light. Flames dance along its fur, reshaping it into something stronger—Magrion.)
> Garon (smirking, arms crossed): "Not bad. You’ve grown stronger."
Magrion (growling, shaking off embers): "Grrrah!"
(As the glow fades, Magrion’s newly-formed mane flickers like molten lava, its body exuding intense heat.)
(Garon nods in approval, but then—)
BOOM.
(A deep, guttural vibration rumbles through the air.)
(Garon freezes. His instincts scream at him—something is coming.)
> Garon (frowning): "What the hell…?"
(A wave of oppressive energy washes over the area. The air itself feels heavy, like the weight of a predator’s gaze pressing down on him.)

(Magrion’s ears twitch, its stance lowering, ready to strike.)
> Garon (narrowing his eyes): "That’s not normal. Something’s here."
(The lake’s once-calm waters ripple unnaturally. The trees on the far side tremble as if reacting to an unseen force.)
(Garon clenches his fists.)

Scene: The Mission – Searching for Aqualum Carp
(Garon shakes off the uneasy feeling. He came here for a reason.)
> Garon (thinking): Whatever that is… I’ll deal with it later. Right now, I need to focus on my mission.
(His eyes scan the lake’s surface. He’s searching for a specific beast—Aqualum Carp, a Unique-grade water-type summon, said to appear only in Moonfall Lake.)
> Garon (muttering to himself): "It’s rare—even here. Most summoners ignore it because it’s weak, but if the rumors are true… it’s a descendant of a legendary dragon."
(Aqualum Carp’s evolution path never showed signs of its dragon heritage, but Garon believes his ability can confirm the truth. If he can tame it, he might unlock its hidden potential.)
(He crouches by the water, scanning for movement.)
> Garon (sighing, muttering): "This would be easier if I knew exactly where to look…"

Scene: The Beast Reveals Itself
WHOOSH!
(The lake erupts as something massive moves beneath the surface.)
(The water splits, sending waves crashing onto the shore.)
(Magrion instantly reacts, flames flaring.)
> Magrion (snarling, stance aggressive): "Grrahhh!"
(Garon stiffens. His instincts scream at him.)
> Garon (eyes narrowing): "This is bad…"
(The ground trembles again, and this time, it’s much closer.)
(The fog thickens over the lake. Within the mist—two glowing yellow eyes pierce through, staring directly at them.)
(A hulking silhouette slowly emerges, its heavy steps causing the earth to quake.)
> Garon (serious, muttering): "No doubt about it… that’s what I sensed earlier."
(The presence is overwhelming. This isn’t some ordinary beast.)

Scene: Preparing for Battle – Summoning Stalacera
(Garon takes a deep breath, calm but focused.)
> Garon (firmly): "No taking chances. Stalacera, come out."
(With a flick of his wrist, a glowing summoning sigil appears beside him.)
WHOOSH!
(A massive stone portal materializes, radiating raw energy. From within—)
BOOM!
(Stalacera steps through, its rocky armor gleaming under the lake’s reflection. It slams a heavy foot into the ground, causing small cracks to form.)
> Stalacera (snorting, lowering its head aggressively): "Rruhh!"
Magrion (flames flaring, growling): "Grrrah!"
(The beast in the mist stops for a moment—as if acknowledging its new challengers.)
(A deep, guttural growl echoes across the lake.)
> Garon (serious, cracking his knuckles): "Alright… let’s see what we’re dealing with."
(The fog swirls violently as the unknown beast steps forward.)
