The party descends into the cavern, determined to find Darnaldi and end the reign of the shadows. Each chamber presents its own test—some challenging their strength, others their wits, and a few forcing them to confront fears they’d rather leave buried. Separated from their allies, they push forward alone, listening to the unsettling silence that twists through the stone. Ghostly whispers weave through the air, revealing long-forgotten truths they were never meant to hear. As they navigate the ancient corridors, time itself feels stretched thin, leading them toward a fate that has been waiting, watching, and ready to unfold.
