Chapter 7: The Convergence Ritual

Anya's eyes, wide with fear and determination, locked onto the ritual's description, the ancient words seeming to pulse with a hidden, resonant energy. "Merge the Luminary's power…with the celestial energies…" she whispered, her voice trembling, reading aloud the cryptic text. The Seer's binding magic intensified, a crushing weight pressing down on her, threatening to suffocate her spirit, his voice a venomous hiss, a dark incantation that echoed through the library, threatening to drown her in shadows. Kaelen, wounded but unyielding, fought with a desperate ferocity, a whirlwind of steel and defiance, buying her precious seconds, his movements a blur of desperate defense. "Anya, now! The ritual, now!" he yelled, his voice strained and raw, a desperate plea echoing through the chaos. Anya, her hands trembling, her heart pounding against her ribs, began to chant, her voice echoing through the collapsing library, the ancient words resonating with the power within her, weaving a spell of defiance. The symbols on the page glowed, illuminating the swirling dust and crumbling stone, and the violet light within her intensified, building to a crescendo, a blinding storm of pure energy. The library shook, the ancient tomes rattling on the shelves, the stone groaning under the strain of the unleashed power. The Seer's binding magic shattered, his eyes widening in terror, his face a mask of disbelief and dawning horror. A beam of pure violet light erupted from Anya's hands, striking the ceiling with explosive force, causing the ancient structure to crumble and implode, stone and debris raining down like a deadly storm. Outside, the city of Silverhold reacted to the sudden, violent surge of power, alarm bells ringing through the night, a chaotic symphony of fear and confusion, a testament to the power they had unleashed.
