Chapter 98: Guardians

"Wendy, I... I have something important to show you. There's someone who wishes to speak with you, someone who holds a connection to your past."

Wendy raised an eyebrow. She had no idea what Rarampica meant, but a part of her couldn't resist the pull of the unknown. What Was going to happen next?

Rarampica turned to lead Wendy towards the shadowy figure, Anzu and Aara exchanged concerned glances. They trusted Wendy's judgment, but the presence of the unknown always carried an element of risk. Anzu stepped forward. "Wendy, take care, and keep your wits about you," he advised. "We'll be here if you need us."

Wendy smiled warmly at Anzu and Aara, gratitude shimmering in her eyes. "Thank you, both of you. I'll be careful," she assured them.

With a deep breath, Wendy followed Rarampica. They soon approached the figure in the shadows. The angel stepped forward, revealing herself to be a radiant being with ethereal wings and a gentle smile.
