Chapter 147: Into the Valley of Whispers

The group stood at the edge of the Valley of Whispers, its entrance shrouded in a dense, swirling mist. The air was unnaturally cold, and the faint sound of murmurs floated on the breeze, sending shivers down their spines.

“So, this is the cursed valley,” Jace said, gripping the hilt of his blade tightly. “Great place for a vacation.”

Lira shot him a sharp look. “Focus. This place is dangerous, and we don’t know what we’ll face in there.”

Anita adjusted her satchel, feeling the comforting weight of the shard inside. “The shard’s energy is pulling us this way. We have to go in.”

Jace sighed. “Fine. But if we see anything with glowing eyes, I’m running the other way.”

The three ventured into the mist, the world around them fading into an eerie silence. The further they walked, the louder the whispers grew, though the words were indistinct, like a chorus of voices just out of reach.
