Reconstructing The String

Author's Note: Unedited Chapter

-------------------

Endric, Sersi, and Ria stood before the massive stone carvings as the cold vibrations of ancient energy pulsed under Endric's fingertips.

He could feel it—a distinct, almost electric resonance that was eerily similar to the energy he'd tapped into when creating the karmic temporal string. It was as if the very stones held the memory of those dark-robed figures who had tried to mislead them.

"This is it," he murmured, eyes narrowing as he pressed his hand against the carvings. "They've been here before… I can feel it. This place… it's connected to them somehow. I can finally recreate the string."

Ria's eyes lit up with excitement. "So we're finally on track again? About time! Let's get this thing going!"

Sersi smiled in relief. "I was beginning to think we'd be wandering aimlessly forever. Let's do it, Unc."

Endric closed his eyes, focusing all his energy into his core.
