Vale crept through the labyrinthine catacombs, guided only by the dim light of his lantern. He knew he was on the brink of a revelation, and the oppressive atmosphere in the underground chamber bore witness to the malevolence that awaited.
As he ventured deeper, the air grew stifling, and the faint hum of an otherworldly presence filled his ears. The first hint of something amiss came with the unmistakable stench—a mélange of decaying flesh, cosmic void, and something far more sinister.
In the chamber ahead, an eerie, violet light pulsed rhythmically. It was there that he saw them, four grotesque figures shrouded in shadow. Their inhuman forms rippled with unnatural energy as they hovered, bodies concealed by dark robes. Vale’s heart raced as he realized the magnitude of the abominations he faced.
The chamber’s silence was shattered by their guttural, unintelligible incantations, weaving arcane patterns of malevolence. In their presence, Vale felt his sanity wane, and the weight of their malevolent intentions bore down upon him.

A horrific battle unfolded as Vale, clinging to the last vestiges of his sanity, attempted to outwit these spawn of unfathomable terror. Their attacks were like nothing he’d ever faced—disorienting, maddening, and suffused with eldritch power.
As Vale’s vision swirled with nightmarish horrors and the violet light enveloped him, he knew that this encounter would test his mettle as never before. To succeed, he has to delve into the cosmic secrets that bound these abominations to the darkness between the stars.
