Guardian of the Ruins

Before I could react, he raised his hand and a wave of dark energy surged towards me. I dodged to the side, rolling to my feet and preparing for a fight. The guardian was fast, but I was faster. We clashed in a flurry of blades and magic, each strike and parry resonating with the hidden power of the ruins.

His strength and agility were formidable, but I had faced worse. I focused my energy, channeling it into my silver knife. As we fought, his shadow manipulation abilities became evident. Dark tendrils snaked from the ground, attempting to ensnare me. I leaped back, slicing through the shadows with precise strikes.

"You'll have to do better than that," I taunted, feeling the adrenaline surge through my veins.
