The journey Begins

# Chapter 26: The Journey Begins

Lyra led Eira to a hidden glade deep in the forest. The air was thick with the scent of blooming flowers, and the sound of soft music seemed to emanate from the trees themselves.

"This is the place where I will teach you the secrets of the ancient magic," Lyra said, her eyes shining with excitement. "But first, you must prepare yourself."

Eira nodded, feeling a sense of anticipation. She knew that this journey would be challenging, but she was ready to face whatever lay ahead.

Lyra handed her a small, delicate box. "Solve the riddle inside, and you will unlock the first secret of the ancient magic."

Eira took the box, feeling a sense of curiosity. She opened it, and inside, she found a small, rolled-up parchment with a cryptic message scrawled on it:

"Where shadows dance, light reveals

The path to power, through darkness peels"

Eira frowned, feeling a sense of confusion. What did the message mean?
