Echoes of the Elemental Ancients

The guardians’ steps echoed loudly through the dense undergrowth as they progressed deeper into the Crystalwoods. The forest hummed with ancient energy, its magic wrapped around them like a warm blanket. They knew that the answers they sought lay somewhere within the impenetrable greenery, and as the light began to wane, they caught their first glimpse of their destination: an ancient tree that seemed to pulse with magic.

Cautiously, they approached the tree, peering curiously at the roots that tangled and twisted underneath it. They watched as the roots parted, forming a doorway that beckoned within. With a shared nod, they stepped inside, their eyes widening with wonder at the sight that greeted them.
