They arrived at a secluded chamber tucked away behind layers of reinforced barriers and intricate seals. Lucas immediately noticed how quiet it was...eerily quiet. It was clear that this room was not meant for ordinary visitors. Every surface gleamed faintly under the soft illumination of floating orbs, their pale light revealing rows upon rows of polished metal cases. Each box was engraved with ancient runes that pulsed faintly, alive with residual energy.
Lucas took a few slow steps forward, his gaze wandering across the vast collection before them. "What is this place, Sage Raph?" he asked, his voice almost reverent.
The old sage's lips curled into a knowing smile. "Few know of this chamber's existence. Even fewer have set foot in it. Every artifact you see here was designed with one purpose...to serve the wielder of the Core of Dominion."
