Chapter 551: Footprints in Time

The days following the intense battle were filled with a tense but cautious calm. The fortress was a flurry of activity as the soldiers and mages worked to reinforce the defenses, tend to the wounded, and prepare for any potential follow-up assaults by the Shadow Shard. Elara and her team were relentless in their efforts, knowing that their vigilance would be the key to their survival.

The importance of their find weighed heavily on her, and she felt a growing sense of urgency to unlock its secrets. She had requested that Morgana and the scholars work on deciphering the ancient texts, hoping that they might reveal more about the magic they had encountered.

The quiet of her room was interrupted by a soft knock on the door. Elara looked up to see Morgana standing in the doorway, her expression thoughtful.
