Prologue: The Awakening of the Flames  

It was a while ago that the oath of the Guardians  

echoed in the depths of the earth. Centuries passed,  

and the old oath was only a flickering echo in the  

forgotten halls of time. But the balance of the world  

was fragile, and the darkness that once seemed  

defeated stirred again.  

The dragon, once a guardian of the elements, was  

gone. Banished to the depths of the forgotten caves,  

where even the light found no access. But the flames  

he once suppressed were not extinguished, they  

continued to burn silently, patiently, until the time  

came when the earth would release them again.  

"When the flames flare up again, the Guardians will  

awaken," whispered the ancient seer, whose eyes  

saw the light of the future. "Only they can keep the  

balance."  

The prophecy spoke of a group that would renew the  

unbroken bond of oath, Mira, Eryon, Lyra. Each of  

them carried an inheritance that went deeper than  

the blood that flowed in their veins. They were the  

chosen ones, the last guardians of balance, and their  

task was clear: they had to find the dragon, unfurl its

wings again, and defeat the fire that threatened the  

world.  

But the trial that lay ahead of them was not just a  

battle against the darkness. It was a fight against  

their own fears, their doubts and the temptation to  

submit to power. The oath they made would not only  

save the world, it would change it.  

The flames had begun to flicker. And the oath of the  

Guardians, as old as time itself, was alive again.  

Chapter 1: The Flame Test  

The air shimmered with heat as Mira, Eryon, and Lyra  

entered the massive cave entrance. The ground  

beneath them was covered with ash, and the walls  

shook as if something in the depths were awakening.  

The dragon was here. And he waited for her.  

"We have to stick together," Mira whispered, but her  

voice sounded uncertain. The prophecy had prepared  

them for this moment, but nothing could prepare  

them for the scorching embers that struck them.  

Every breath felt like flames were burning her lungs.

A deep rumble filled the cave, and two glowing eyes  

opened in the darkness. The dragon rose from its  

resting place, its scales shimmering like molten gold.  

An ancient being who had once watched over the  

balance of the world and would now be its test.  

"Who dares to break the seal?" The dragon's voice  

thundered through the cave, accompanied by a hot  

gust that stirred up the dust. The ground shook under  

his huge claws, and smoke rose from his throat.  

Eryon stepped forward, his gaze determined. "We are  

the Guardians! We have come to restore the  

balance!"  

A loud laugh echoed through the cave, rough and  

deep. "Words alone will not save you. Show me your  

strength, show me your hearts!"

With a mighty flap of its wings, the dragon rushed  

towards them. Flames shot through the air, and the  

Guardians jumped apart. Mira threw up her hands,  

and a protective barrier of light formed around her.  

Lyra drew her sword, which lit up in the heat, while  

Eryon collected magic with her hands raised. The  

spell pulsed between his fingers, a glistening blue  

that broke through the darkness of the cave.  

The dragon reared up and opened its mouth. A burst  

of flame rushed towards them, and Mira reinforced  

the barrier at the last moment. The heat made her  

knees tremble, but she held her ground. Lyra leaped  

forward, her sword pointed at the beast's heart, while  

Eryon unleashed his spell. Magic chains wrapped  

around the dragon's claws, but with a single jerk he  

broke them.  

"You are strong, but is your will unshakable?" The  

dragon's voice vibrated through the stone. "Prove it to  

me!"

The fight had begun. But it wasn't just a fight for her  

life, it was a trial that would decide the fate of the  

world, ...  

Chapter 2: The Gate of the Worlds  

The Guardians' journey had taken them far beyond  

the boundaries of the known. The dense forest in  

which they now found themselves seemed different,  

 

7

the trees whispered in a language that made their  

hearts restless. Eryon felt it first. An energy that  

reminded him of the ancient magic he had only heard  

in ancient legends.  

"Do you hear that?" he asked softly as he stopped  

and sniffed the air.  

Mira nodded. "Yes, as if the forest itself lives... and  

hides something in it."  

Their steps led them deeper into the forest until the  

ground was covered with moss and thick roots.  

Suddenly, the thick fog broke apart in front of them,  

and they stood in front of a massive rock face that  

towered in front of them as if out of nowhere. But  

something was different: the wall shimmered in the  

dim light, as if it had been made of pure stardust.  

"The gate," Lyra whispered, her eyes widened.  

8

In front of them stood a bright golden circle, a gate  

that shimmered as if it had been woven from the  

depths of time itself. In the middle of the circle was  

carved a symbol, an old sign that Eryon recognized  

immediately.  

"The symbol of the Guardians," he said, faltering his  

words. "It's the key."  

"And what happens when we activate it?" Mira  

wondered if they were really ready to enter the gate.  

"It opens, but only to those who have truly taken the  

oath of the Guardians," Eryon answered, unsure if he  

could calm himself down with it.  

Lyra took a step forward and carefully placed her  

hand on the edge of the golden circle. Immediately  

the gate began to glow, and a suction seized her, as if  

the gate itself were alive and wanted to pull her into  

its depths.  

9

"Ready?" Mira asked, her voice firm, even though her  

heart was beating faster.  

"Ready," Eryon and Lyra answered at the same time.  

With one last glimpse of the world they had known,  

the group stepped through the magic gate and found  

themselves in a new, unknown dimension. The air  

was thinner, the colors more intense and the light  

seemed to come from all directions. The ground  

beneath her feet was covered with glowing crystals,  

and in the distance towering towers of shimmering  

obsidian rose into the sky.  

"Where are we?" whispered Mira.  

"In a world meant only for the Guardians," Eryon  

answered, feeling the magic in the air. "And this is  

where our true trial will begin."

Chapter 3: The Search for Clara  

After stepping through the magic gate, the Guardians  

felt cut off from reality. The world around her was like  

a mirror image of her own, but distorted and alien.  

 

11  

The sky above them was a deep purple that changed  

into innumerable hues, and the air seemed to be  

permeated by a strange heaviness. It was as if after  

stepping through the magic gate, the Guardians felt  

cut off from reality.  

"Clara must be here somewhere," Mira said,  

searching her eyes. She felt the connection to her  

friend as if she were a part of this place. But despite  

this connection, the direction was unclear.  

"Where exactly can we find her?" asked Eryon, his  

brow furrowed as he scanned the horizon.  

Lyra pulled an old, magical card from her pocket,  

which began to glow by itself in the new world. "I can  

feel it," she said, pointing to a marked point near a  

massive mountain massif. "There, in Duskwood. But  

the path is dangerous. We have to hurry."  

12  

"Clara has always helped us, we must not let her  

down," Mira whispered, her voice full of  

determination. The memory of her friend, who had  

always stood by her side with words and deeds,  

drove her on.  

Duskwood was a place of shadows and mystery.  

Trees leaning at odd angles and fog that was  

constantly moving seemed to be watching the  

Guardians. But the closer they got to the goal, the  

stronger the feeling became that they were being  

watched, as if invisible eyes were lurking for them.  

"We have to be careful," Lyra warned as she stepped  

through the fog. "There are dark creatures in this  

forest. Beings that thrive in the darkness."  

Suddenly, they heard a noise, a soft giggle coming  

from the shadows. It was not a human sound. A huge  

shadow flew over them, and the air grew heavier, as if  

some danger was approaching.  

13  

"Ready to fight," Eryon shouted as he raised his  

hands and collected magic. The glowing aura that  

surrounded him was the only ray of hope in the  

darkness of the forest.  

And then, from the shadows, a dark figure emerged, a  

creature from the depths that had hidden itself in the  

mists of the forest. It was a creature, half human, half  

animal, with shining eyes and claws that tore the  

ground.  

"You're too late," the creature said in a voice that  

sounded like the rustling of fermented leaves.  

"Clara's time is up."  

A fight began, but it was more than just a physical  

fight. It was a test of her determination, her courage  

and her willingness to risk everything to save Clara.  

The Guardians had to fight not only the creature, but  

14  

also their own fears and the shadows that hid in their  

hearts.  

Super! If we made Duskwood even more mystical  

and the trials for Guardians more intense, we could  

add even more magical and psychological  

challenges. Perhaps they will also encounter visions  

from the past or future in the forest that appeal to  

their fears and insecurities. These visions could lead  

them away from their goal or force them to defeat  

their inner demons in order to move forward.
