WHISPERS OF THE HIDDEN CROWN

Chapter 10: The Stairway of Eternity

On the final step, Lucian hesitated. The Oracle's voice echoed:

"Choose love or legacy. One path leads to Seraphina's embrace, the other to forgotten realms."

He closed his eyes, heart torn. But love blazed brighter—a comet streaking across the heavens. He stepped into memory, and the Crown's silver filigree glowed.

As dawn painted the sky, Lucian found Seraphina waiting in the Enchanted Ballroom. She remembered—their love etched in stardust, their hearts bound by moonlit promises.

And so, in the hidden castle of Eldoria, where emerald forests whispered secrets and sapphire rivers sang forgotten melodies, Seraphina and Lucian reigned as the eternal lovers—their love inscribed in the stars, their souls forever entwined.
