Chapter 9: A New Path

In the end, Finn chose to stay and fight. With the help of Kalen, Elira, and the allies he had made along the way, they confronted the Lord of Shadows in a final battle. Finn's magic, once uncontrollable and dangerous, had now become a part of him. He wielded it with purpose, not to escape, but to protect the world that had, in a strange way, become his own.

The Lord of Shadows was defeated, his power sealed away once more. But the cost was great. The portal to Finn's world was destroyed in the process, leaving him stranded in Elysana forever.

Though he would never return to his old life, Finn found a new purpose in this strange land. He became a protector of Elysana, ensuring that no one else would ever have to face the same dangers he had. And as time passed, the world he had once been so desperate to leave became a place he could finally call home.
