Chapter 14: The Mysterious Prophecy

The guardian's words hung in the air, filling Joy and Sorrow with a sense of wonder and trepidation. What could this great destiny be? And what role would Sorrow play in it?

Lumina, the guardian, smiled as if reading their thoughts. "All will be revealed in time," she said. "But for now, let us focus on the task at hand. Joy, you have been chosen to fulfill an ancient prophecy. One that will bring light and joy to a world that sorely needs it."

Joy's sparkles flashed with excitement. "A prophecy?" she repeated. "What does it say?"

Lumina's expression turned serious. "The prophecy speaks of a great darkness that threatens to consume the world. But it also speaks of a small, brave light that will drive the darkness back. Joy, you are that light."

Sorrow's wings fluttered softly. "And what about me?" it asked.

Lumina's smile returned. "You, Sorrow, are the key to unlocking Joy's true potential. Together, you will face challenges and overcome obstacles. And in the end, you will emerge victorious, bringing light and joy to a world that sorely needs it."

As Lumina finished speaking, the city around them began to shimmer and shine. Joy's sparkles flashed with excitement, and Sorrow's wings fluttered softly.
