The artifact

As the energy and power flowed through them, Tahira, Ariana, and Sophie felt their bodies begin to glow with a soft, golden light. The light grew brighter and brighter, until they were surrounded by a brilliant aura that seemed to radiate from their very souls.

As they stood there, bathed in the golden light, Arachne spoke again. "You have proven yourselves to be strong, brave, and worthy," she said. "You have faced your deepest fears and doubts, and you have emerged victorious. You are now ready to receive the final reward, the greatest gift that the gods can bestow upon you."

And with that, Arachne raised her hands to the sky, and a brilliant beam of light shot down from above, enveloping the three werewolves. The light was so intense that it seemed to dissolve their very bodies, leaving nothing but a shimmering, golden mist in its wake.
