Miranda trudged through the dense forest, her feet aching and her clothes soaked from the relentless rain. She had been searching for what felt like hours, her heart racing with every snap of a twig or rustle of leaves. She had to find Prince Kael.
As she rounded a bend in the path, she spotted a dark opening in the side of a hill. A cave. Miranda's heart skipped a beat as she quickened her pace, her senses on high alert. She called out, her voice echoing off the trees. "Kael? Prince Kael, is that you?"
There was no response. Miranda's anxiety spiked as she approached the cave entrance. She stepped inside, her eyes adjusting to the dim light. The air was damp and musty, and Miranda could hear the sound of dripping water echoing off the walls.
As she made her way deeper into the cave, Miranda stumbled upon a figure lying on the ground. Her heart leapt into her throat as she rushed to his side. It was Prince Kael.
