CHAPTER NINE

THE HIDDEN TRAPDOOR creaked open with a sound that echoed eerily through the abandoned cottage. Dust rose in a thick cloud, making me cough as I peered into the darkness below. The air was stale and carried a damp, musty scent as if it had been sealed off for centuries. My heart pounded with a mix of excitement and trepidation.

"Seraphina! Lila! Come quick! I think I've found something!" I called out, my voice barely concealing the thrill of discovery.

Seraphina and Lila hurried over, their expressions a blend of curiosity and caution. Seraphina's eyes gleamed with interest, her staff emitting a faint, steady glow that illuminated the edges of the trapdoor. Lila's gaze, however, was sharper, more pragmatic, and her every movement radiated readiness.

"Well, well, Alex. What have you stumbled on this time?" Lila's tone was teasing, but her eyes were serious as she peered into the darkness.

"I don't know, but I think it might be what we're looking for," I said. My heart raced as I stared at the steps leading down into the unknown abyss. Despite my hesitation, a glimmer of hope flickered within me. Could this be what we've been searching for all along?

I turned to my companion and gestured towards the steps, my voice steady with determination. "Let's check it out," I said, determined to uncover any secrets that lay ahead. The air around us was thick with anticipation—as if even nature itself knew something monumental awaited us beyond those steps. With hesitant yet resolute steps, we made our way down into the mysterious darkness below.

"Or what might come looking for us," Lila chimed in, a mischievous smirk dancing across her lips. "But hey, that's the excitement of life, isn't it?"

I swallowed nervously, feeling a mix of anticipation and anxiety swirling in my stomach. Every time I turned a corner on this strange journey, I ran smack into new unknown dangers… but I couldn't turn back now.

"Ready?" I asked my companions, making my voice sound more confident than I was.

"Ready," they replied in unison, their words echoing through the dark cavern as we began our descent into the depths of the unknown. The cool air swirled around us, carrying whispers and secrets from deep within the earth. My heart pounded in my chest as we made our way down the rocky path, unsure of what lay ahead.

The narrow, winding staircase groaned and creaked under the weight of our footsteps, each step releasing a small cloud of dust into the air. Seraphina led the way, her staff illuminating the dark path ahead as we descended deeper into the ancient castle's hidden chambers.

The flickering light cast eerie shadows against the rough stone walls, creating an otherworldly atmosphere. Lila followed close
