Veil of Revelation

Chapter 10: Veil of Revelation

Elsa's world shattered as the revelation about her mother, Eliza, unfolded. The once-presumed deceased dragon warrior, now revealed to be alive, sparked a torrent of questions in Elsa's mind. Shocked and overwhelmed, she turned to her father, King Asther, urging him to unveil the untold chapters of her mother's life.

In a somber moment, King Asther began to narrate the extraordinary tale of Eliza, an elite warrior of the Dragon race and the daughter of the dragon clan leader, Derafus. Eliza, known for her kindness and unparalleled strength, held a significant place in the Dragon race.

Asther recounted the fateful encounter where he, exploring the forest, stumbled upon Eliza in peril. Attacked by a monstrous creation of the Demon race, Eliza faced imminent doom. Asther's intervention, however, marked the awakening of his latent powers, granting him the ability of lightning magic. With a thunderous clap, he defeated the monster and saved Eliza from the brink of death.

Impressed by Asther's strength and kindness, Eliza was taken to the Elf village for treatment. Over time, their connection deepened, blossoming into love. Asther shared with Elsa the tale of their engagement and marriage—a union forged for the peace between the Dragon and Elf races.

Elsa, absorbing the details of her parents' love story, felt a surge of emotions. King Asther went on to explain that Elsa's birth occurred two years after their union. The fragile peace was disrupted when a war erupted between the Dragon race and the Demon race. Though the Demon race was sealed away, Eliza's father, Derafus, perished in the conflict.

To honor her father's legacy and protect the Dragon race, Eliza assumed the mantle of clan leader. The path to leadership demanded a sacrifice, as Eliza chose to undergo the ancient ritual in the cave named Wrath of the Dragon. There, she transformed into a true dragon, bound to the cave for eternity. In this draconic form, she gained the ability to witness world events and acquire vast knowledge but was forever barred from taking human form or leaving the cave.

King Asther, misinformed about Eliza's fate, believed she had perished in the war. Only after two decades of relentless research did he discover the truth about his wife's transformation into the clan leader. The revelation led him to the cave where Eliza resided, overseeing the events of the world.

Elsa, overwhelmed by the weight of her mother's sacrifice and the depth of her parents' love, found herself torn between joy and sorrow. The newfound knowledge about her mother's existence added layers of complexity to her already intricate journey.

As Elsa processed this information, the trio—Ethan, Elsa, and Thoth—continued their training in the Forest of Spirits. The whispers of betrayal and looming threats echoed louder, but the trio, now fortified by the bond of awakening, faced the challenges united.

Chapter 10: Veil of Revelation, marked a pivotal moment as Elsa grappled with the legacy of her mother and the impending confrontation that awaited them. The enchanted realm held secrets yet to be unveiled, and the trio pressed forward, flames of awakening guiding their path.
