The young woman was eager to learn the arts of battle, and Abigail couldn't be happier to teach her. The two stood before a vast forest, where serpent shifters were known to lurk.

Sophie stared at her mentor, arms crossed over her chest. "You know, for an old guy, you sure don't know anything," she scoffed. Her mentor, Mr. Johnson, rolled his eyes. "Ah, yes, because seventeen-year-olds are always the epitome of wisdom," he shot back, his voice thick with sarcasm. Sophie couldn't help but smile a bit at his tone, even though she was still annoyed.

On this particular day, as Alex wandered through the scorching desert, the heat waves dancing on the horizon, something caught his eye. As Alex trudged through the seemingly endless sand dunes, he stumbled upon a lush oasis nestled in the heart of the barren desert. Trees swayed gently, their leaves whispering secrets to the wind, while a crystal-clear pool sparkled invitingly in the sunlight. Birds chirped melodiously, creating a symphony of life in an o...

"Be careful." Sam led us down a moldy road after walking for over an hour. But the road was not the worst it had taken us, but in front of us, cutting the road, I found a cliff that hid a river at the bottom. The only cross, an old log. "Will we have to go that way?" - Sky asked seeing the unique connection to the other side of the cliff. An old log, wet, and almost breaking. "Come on, nothing will happen."
