Barrier 1

The two of them stood there, gazing at the garden before them. The night air was tranquil, wrapping around them like a gentle embrace. However, the serene atmosphere shattered as an unexpected tremor rumbled beneath their feet.

"The ground is shaking..."Rosalind's voice broke the eerie silence, her words revealing surprise and concern.

In response to her observation, the very foundation of the building they stood on quivered, causing the balcony to sway. The once-peaceful garden below seemed to come alive, leaves rustling like whispered secrets in the night.

Lucas's grip on the balcony railing tightened, his eyes narrowing as he scanned their surroundings. The once-calm night had transformed into a charged environment, and the ground continued to tremble beneath them. It was as if the World itself had stirred from slumber, awakening with restless energy.

The sound of distant screams filled the air, voices mingling in confusion.
