Eryndor waited anxiously for Aria and Lyra to return. He paced back and forth, his mind racing with questions.

  What did Lyra mean by "the fate of our world"? What role could he possibly play?

  Just as he was starting to get impatient, Aria and Lyra emerged from the trees.

  "Let's go," Aria said, her voice firm. "Lyra has something to show us."

  Eryndor followed them, his curiosity piqued. They led him to a hidden chamber deep in the forest, the entrance guarded by ancient spells.

  The tale has been illicitly lifted; should you spot it on Amazon, report the violation.

  Inside, the chamber was filled with ancient artifacts and mysterious devices. Lyra led them to a large crystal orb, glowing with an otherworldly energy.

  "This is the Oracle's Eye," Lyra said, her voice filled with reverence. "It holds the secrets of our world's past, present, and future."

  Eryndor's eyes widened as he gazed at the orb. What secrets did it hold?

  Lyra smiled, her eyes glinting with amusement. "Let's find out," she said, her voice dripping with mystery.

  And with that, Lyra reached out and touched the orb, unleashing a blast of energy that sent Eryndor flying across the room.
