Chapter 279: Hunt Begins
As Alternate Elara stood alone in the throne room, pondering her next move, Caden and Aeliana found themselves in an unexpected location within the alternate universe. They had arrived in a remote system known as the Veilstar System. The planet they descended upon was called Calidora, a world with a rustic charm and far from the sprawling urban centers of Telarion Prime.
The small town they approached was named Everspring, nestled among rolling hills and lush greenery. It was a stark contrast to the grey, utilitarian cities of the alternate universe's central planets. Everspring was quaint, with cobblestone streets, small shops, and the air of a close-knit community.
As Caden and Aeliana landed on the outskirts of the town, they quickly realized they needed to blend in. The townsfolk were likely unaccustomed to visitors from other worlds, let alone other universes. They found some simple clothing in a deserted barn, changing out of their more conspicuous attire.
