Scene 1: The Underground Passage
Lucien follows the emblem's markings across the city, each one leading him deeper into the unknown. Eventually, they guide him to an abandoned church at the edge of town. Ivy-covered walls, shattered stained-glass windows—it looks untouched for centuries.
But something about it feels... wrong.
Lucien (thinking, stepping forward): "This place… I've been here before."
The moment his fingers graze the rusted iron doors, a surge of energy pulses through his veins. The emblem on the door glows faintly, recognizing his touch. The ground trembles, and with a low groan, the doors creak open, revealing a dark passage leading underground.
Scene 2: The Order of the Veil
Lucien descends into the depths, his footsteps echoing through the stone corridor. The air grows colder with each step. Finally, he reaches a vast underground hall—dimly lit torches casting flickering shadows across the massive chamber.
A group of hooded figures stands in a semi-circle, their faces hidden beneath thick cloaks.
One steps forward. An elder man with piercing gray eyes.
Elder: "The lost king returns at last."
Lucien tenses. How do they know him?
Lucien: "Who are you? What do you know about me?"
The elder gestures, and the others step aside, revealing an ancient mural painted across the stone wall. It depicts a warrior cloaked in shadows, wielding a sword bathed in flames. Behind him, a kingdom burns. And above it all—an ominous prophecy written in faded ink.
Elder (solemnly reading): "When the Forsaken Monarch awakens, the world shall break... or be reborn."
Lucien's breath catches. The words resonate deep within him, stirring something he cannot explain.
Lucien (whispering): "What… am I?"
Scene 3: A Threat in the Dark
Before the elder can answer, the torches flicker violently. A sudden gust of wind sweeps through the hall, and an eerie voice fills the chamber.
??? (mocking): "Ah… so the lost king has finally come home."
Lucien turns sharply. From the darkness, a new figure emerges—clad in black, his face obscured by a silver mask.
The hooded figures back away in fear.
Elder (grimly whispering): "The Harbinger of Oblivion… He found us."
Lucien's body reacts before his mind does. His fingers curl, and for the first time in this life—
A pulse of raw power surges through his veins.
The battle has begun.
🔥🔥🔥 Who is the Harbinger of Oblivion? What is the Forsaken Monarch's true destiny? And will Lucien embrace his forgotten power?
Next Chapter:Lucien faces his first real battle, unlocking a fragment of the power that once made him a legend... but at a cost.
