Chapter 16: The Journey Begins

The team's journey back into the Amazon was fraught with danger. Kane's mercenaries were hot on their trail, and the jungle seemed more treacherous than ever. They navigated through dense foliage, battled swarms of insects, and crossed perilous rivers. The constant threat of ambush kept them on edge, but their determination to reach the Hidden Chamber never wavered.

Along the way, they encountered remnants of ancient Zilarian outposts, each one offering clues about the civilization's rise and fall. Elena and Michael pieced together a story of a society that had harnessed incredible power, only to be undone by their own hubris. The closer they got to the Hidden Chamber, the more they realized the true nature of their quest.
