chapter 49

The Prophecy

I stood before the figure, my mind reeling with the revelations. I had seen the past, the present, and the future. I had seen the world in all its complexity, and I had seen my place within it.

And then, I saw the prophecy. A vision of the future, a vision of destruction and chaos.

"You are the chosen one," the figure said, its voice low and mysterious. "You are the one who will bring balance to the world."

I felt a surge of confusion. Balance? What did that mean?

But before I could ask any more questions, the figure vanished, leaving me alone in the forest.

I stood there for a moment, trying to process what had just happened. And then, I saw Riven. He was standing before me, his eyes burning with a malevolent energy.

"You're not going to be able to stop me," he said, his voice dripping with malice. "I will destroy everything in my path."

I felt a surge of determination. I knew that I had to stop him. I knew that I had to bring balance to the world.

And so, I did.

With a fierce determination, I charged at Riven. I used all of my strength and skill to take him down.

But as we fought, I realized that Riven was not alone. He had an army of dark creatures at his disposal.

And then, I saw it. A dark portal opening in the distance. A portal that led to the underworld.

"You're going to have to face your demons," the figure said, its voice echoing in my mind. "You're going to have to face yourself."

And with that, Riven vanished into the portal, leaving me alone once again.
