Chapter seven
Calypso's heart pounded as they ventured deeper into the lair. Darkness suffocated them, and decay filled the air.
Galen's grip on her hand tightened. "We're together, Calypso. Always."
Morvane's whisper was urgent. "The Devourer's power grows stronger."
Twisted tendrils writhed across the walls, pulsing with malevolent energy.
Calypso steeled herself. "We'll stop the Devourer, together."
Galen's eyes locked onto hers. "I'll protect you, no matter what."
Calypso's heart swelled. "I trust you, Galen."
The cavernous space opened before them, lit by flickering torches.
The Devourer's massive form sprawled across the floor, its eyes burning with hunger.
"Mine," it growled.
Calypso stood tall, the pearl's power coursing through her.
Galen drew his sword, ready to defend.
Morvane chanted, ancient magic swirling around her.
The Devourer lunged, jaws wide open.
Calypso unleashed the pearl's energy.
A blast of light repelled the Devourer.
Galen charged forward, sword flashing.
But the Devourer's claws mutated, slicing through Galen's armor.
Calypso's heart raced.
"Galen!" she screamed.
Morvane's magic faltered.
A dark entity emerged, its presence weakening Calypso's connection to the pearl.
Galen struggled to free himself.
Calypso summoned the pearl's power.
A blast of energy shattered the entity.
The Devourer collapsed.
Silence fell.
Calypso's breath slowed.
Galen turned to her, his eyes burning.
Calypso's eyes met his.
Their love shone brighter.
Morvane smiled.
"The curse begins to break."
A glow spread.
The lair transformed.
No longer dark.
Now radiant.
But the victory was short-lived.
A rumbling sound shook the lair.
"The Devourer's downfall triggers a catastrophic chain reaction," Morvane warned.
"We must escape."
The ground trembled.
Walls cracked.
Rocks fell.
Their escape route crumbled.
As they navigated the treacherous terrain, Calypso's doubts resurfaced.
"Galen, what if we can't escape?"
Galen's grip on her hand tightened.
"Trust me, Calypso. We'll face whatever comes next, together."
Suddenly, a chasm opened before them.
A deep, seemingly bottomless pit.
Calypso's heart sank.
Galen's eyes locked onto hers.
"Jump with me, Calypso"
