The Hunt for Power Holders

Chapter: The Hunt for Power Holders

Adam sat cross-legged on the floor, his friends Leo and Susan still in front of him, their faces a mix of awe and concern. Adam's revelation about encountering the very entity the Oracle had predicted left them visibly shaken.

"So you've already met him?" Leo's voice broke the silence, laced with disbelief. "The one the Oracle warned about?"

Adam gave a slow, deliberate nod, confirming their worst fears. Seeing his affirmation, both of them exchanged a look of quiet astonishment. They were beginning to grasp the gravity of what Adam was dealing with, and a wave of respect washed over them.

Leo lowered his gaze, his voice heavy with guilt and admiration. "Adam, my friend... I had no idea you were fighting such battles, and all on your own."

Leo had no idea how much responsibility Adam was taking on and that he was fighting alone without anyone's help.
