The camp was abuzz with activity as Tina and her allies prepared for the next phase of their mission. Although the artifact gave them a crucial advantage, the Shadow Collective would relentlessly pursue its recovery. With anticipation: They gathered around the campfire, the air thick with anticipation and urgency, to plan their future moves. Tina stood at the center, her gaze sweeping over the faces of her comrades. “We’ve made significant progress, but our battle is far from over,” she began, her voice steady. “The Shadow Collective will stop at nothing to get their hands on this artifact. It’s important that we’re prepared for whatever they throw at us. Eldric nodded in agreement. “We should fortify our defenses and set up a perimeter around the camp. We can’t afford to be surprised.”
