Chapter 114: A Tale of Courage and Sacrifice

After a while, Althea gently broke the silence. "Elara, can you tell me what happened in the dungeon?" she asked softly.

Elara took a deep breath and began to recount their journey. She explained how they had entered the dungeon and were suddenly teleported to a gloomy and dead place. She described the strange monsters called ghosts that had attacked them and how they had defended themselves. And then she spoke of the canyon they had stumbled upon and the huge tomb they had found 

Althea's eyes widened in surprise. "A tomb?" she asked. "What was inside it?"

Elara took a moment to compose herself before continuing. "Inside the tomb, there were many traps and puzzles," she said. "But despite the danger, there were many treasures and rewards as well. We found 4-star healing pills and many other valuable items. But then we came across a huge door, and that's when the nightmare began. My grandfather and teacher Kael died protecting me."
