The Witch Elara (Part 1)

"Who's there?" asked Kaizen loudly, his voice echoing through the quiet hall.

The silence remained for a brief moment before a cold, mocking voice resounded through the hall. "Ah, Kaizen... You have finally arrived. What a pleasure it is to finally meet you."

From behind the throne, a figure emerged from the shadows. It was a woman of supernatural beauty, with long black hair and bright eyes that seemed to reflect the darkness of the night itself. She was dressed in a dark cloak and held an ornate staff in her hands.

"Who are you and what are you doing here?" questioned Kaizen with a serious and cautious expression.

The woman replied in a soft, hypnotic voice, "My name is Elara. And let's just say that I am a wandering sorceress, in search of knowledge and wisdom." Her tone was serene, but there was something unsettling in her gaze.
