237 Words
Elian instinctively raised his hands, and a burst of light repelled Kael's dark reflection. The Seal's core pulsed stronger, resonating with Elian's energy.
Kael's eyes narrowed. "You're more powerful than I anticipated. But it won't save you."
Lyra stepped forward, her reflection shimmering with determination. "We won't let you exploit the Seal's power."
Arden positioned himself between Kael and the Seal, his sword at the ready.
Kael snarled, unleashing a wave of distorted reflections. Elian, Lyra, and Arden fought to maintain their footing, each reflection threatening to consume them.
Elian discovered he could manipulate his own reflections, creating multiple versions of himself to confuse Kael's minions.
Lyra's reflections harmonized with Elian's, amplifying their combined strength.
Arden's sword sliced through illusions, protecting his companions.
As they battled, Elian grasped the true nature of reflections: they weren't just echoes, but vessels for the soul.
Kael's darkest reflection emerged, a monstrous entity feeding on fear and despair.
"We need to merge our reflections," Elian said, a plan forming. "Create a unified front against Kael's darkness."
Lyra nodded. "Together, we can overcome this."
Arden readied his sword. "Let's do this."
Their reflections intertwined, forging a radiant entity that repelled Kael's darkness.
The Seal's core surged, imbuing Elian with ancient knowledge.
"You can't defeat me," Kael sneered, "for I am the Reflection's Master."
Elian smiled, understanding the Seal's secret. "You're not the master. You're the reflection of one."
Kael's expression faltered.
