Chapter 78: Prophecy Unveiled

As Kael's eyes opened, he found himself in a realm bathed in ethereal hues. The ground beneath him shimmered with iridescent patterns, and the air hummed with an otherworldly energy. Strange flora with petals that glowed like starlight surrounded him, creating an otherworldly ambiance.

As he took in the surroundings, Kael noticed Aelius engaged in conversation with a mysterious figure cloaked in shadows. The cloak seemed to absorb the ambient light, rendering the features of the person within nearly invisible.

Kael cautiously approached the duo, the soft ground beneath his feet giving a surreal sensation. He overheard Aelius speaking to the cloaked figure about a prophecy, a tale of a boy born with mixed blood destined to traverse all six realms. The boy's journey would herald a new age and ultimately lead to his becoming the ruler, uniting the disparate realms into a harmonious whole.

Aelius, his voice carrying the weight of ancient wisdom, shared the details with the cloaked individual. "This boy, born of mixed blood, is the key to bridging the realms and ushering in an era of unity. His journey will shape the destiny of all realms, bringing about a profound transformation."

Just as Kael absorbed the revelation, the realm around him plunged into darkness. The voices and images faded, leaving him suspended in an abyss of nothingness. The echoes of the prophecy lingered, leaving Kael to grapple with the profound implications of his own existence within the tapestry of the realms.
