After their battle with the corrupted beasts, the protagonist and Raghav's daughter returned to a nearby village to rest and regroup. The villagers, once fearful of their presence, now looked to them with a sense of hope. The protagonist had proven himself in battle, and they believed that he might be the one to save them from the growing darkness.
But the protagonist knew better than to believe in false hope. The battle was far from over, and the true enemy still lurked in the shadows.
As they sat in the village's small inn, Raghav's daughter spoke of the growing threat that was sweeping across Dominion.
"The dark forces that plague this land are not just beasts and monsters," she said, her voice grim. "There are those in the shadows—those who seek to control Dominion for their own purposes. Their power is vast, and they will stop at nothing to see the world consumed by darkness."
The protagonist's grip tightened around his mug. "Then we will stop them. We can't let this world fall into their hands."
But Raghav's daughter shook her head. "It won't be that easy. The darkness is not just an enemy that can be fought with power. It's something deeper. Something that will require every ounce of strength we have to defeat."
The weight of her words hung in the air, and the protagonist realized the true scale of the battle they were about to face.
