Chapter 18:
Veil of the Shadow Hunter
Years before the present turmoil, Mr. Eflok held in his possession an old, dark velvet ring—a relic of immense power and mystery. The ring had been given to him by a strange woman shortly after Leegna's birth. Though Mr. Eflok was aware of its significance, he had no inkling of the true extent of its power. The woman had left with cryptic words, hinting at the ring's importance but revealing nothing of its true nature. His father was left with an envelope containing one letter and the ring.
-Life seemed to continue normally until the fateful day of the accident.
It was a crisp autumn evening when tragedy struck. They had no inkling that their journey would be their last. Unbeknownst to them, their car was being shadowed by a dark force, orchestrated by an unknown third party with malevolent intentions.
-As they drove through the winding roads, the shadows closed in. The accident was sudden and brutal—an engineered crash that left their car crumpled and lifeless at the roadside. The impact was catastrophic, a harrowing scene of twisted metal and shattered glass. The authorities ruled it as a tragic accident, but Mr. Eflok knew better.
-The letter he read few days ago was the key to their accident . Someone was targeting their son and he had to sacrifice both him and his wife . So he took the warning for real and head into mess ahead hoping for the safety of his son.
-His final thoughts were consumed with fear for his son, Leegna, who was only three years old at the time.
"Protect him," he murmured with his last breath, clutching the dark velvet ring tightly. He had come to realize that the ring was more than a mere trinket—it was a safeguard, a beacon that held the potential to shield Leegna from the darkness that sought to destroy their family.
As the car's wreckage was discovered and the tragic news reached the world, the truth remained hidden. The ring, a symbol of the unspoken legacy Mr. Eflok had hoped would protect his son, was left behind—a silent witness to the sacrifice made in the name of love and protection.
Little did the world know, as Leegna was left orphaned and alone, that the dark velvet ring was more than just a family heirloom. It was a key to a greater power, a remnant of a tragic past that would shape his future in ways he could not yet imagine.
