but also sacrifice.

Chapter Twelve

Encounter with the Darkness

Eve discovered a cave, hidden among the rocks.

Inside, there was cold and darkness,

but she felt an undeniable pull toward the place.

As she entered, the voice spoke again.

"This is your trial, Eve.

Here, you will meet your darkness.

Here, you will discover who you truly are,"

the voice said.
