Chapter 48
The wilderness, once teeming with life and energy, now bore the scars of the battles fought within its depths. Cole and Mirai stood at the edge of a cliff, overlooking the vast expanse of the wilderness they had grown to love and protect. The time had come for them to bid farewell to the place that had been their home and sanctuary.
"I can't believe we're leaving," Mirai said, her voice tinged with sadness. "This place has become a part of us, Cole."
Cole nodded, a bittersweet smile on his face. "I know. But we've done what we set out to do. The balance has been restored, and the wilderness is healing. Our mission here is complete."
As they gazed upon the wilderness one last time, memories flooded their minds - the battles they fought, the friends they made, and the incredible experiences that shaped their journey. They had grown stronger and wiser through their time here, and they knew that they would carry these memories with them forever.
