Yet, their focus remained steadfast on their mission to locate Maleek and uncover the secrets of the elusive blue flame. Unbeknownst to them, a Raifujin loyalist lurked in the shadows of the inn, eavesdropping on their conversation with keen interest.

Maleek lay sprawled on the cold, unforgiving ground, his body aching as if he had been torn apart and pieced back together again. His mind swirled in an endless void, a dark abyss that seemed to stretch on for eternity. Every time he tried to make sense of where he was, the darkness would press in tighter, suffocating him with its weight. He was alone—utterly and completely alone. His thoughts were fragmented, scattered like pieces of a puzzle he couldn’t quite put together."Maleek! Wake up!" A voice pierced through the stillness of his mind, urgent and insistent. It was familiar, soothing in its desperation.Groaning, Maleek stirred. His head throbbed, and his body felt like it had been through hell. Slowly, his senses returned, one by one—touch, sound, sight.

My head..." he muttered, rubbing his temples, feeling the sharp ache like a vice around his skull. As his eyes adjusted to the dim light of the room, he scanned his surroundings. The flat walls were bare, with no windows to speak of, and the cold stone floor felt alien beneath his fingertips. Rangi sat cross-legged in a meditative position, his eyes closed in a state of tranquility, while Voltus, sitting slightly apart, stared blankly at the floor as though lost in thought."Where the hell are we?" Maleek demanded, the frustration in his voice palpable as he staggered to his feet, feeling a twinge of dizziness. He steadied himself on a nearby stone pillar as he looked from one of his companions to the other.Rangi, unfazed by the urgency in Maleek's voi
