Ch 41: A Meeting Across Eras
The stones trembled violently, their vibrations resonating through the ground like a drumbeat of impending change.
The green stone, which had rested in its spot for what seemed like eternity, began to shed its old, dull exterior.
Flakes of ancient material fell away, revealing a deep, mesmerizing emerald hue that pulsed with life.
The carvings etched into the earth came alive, glowing with intertwining lights of cerulean and green.

Everything stopped... the wind, the swaying trees, even the faint ripples on the poisonous lake.
