Title: Born under a rare celestial event
Level: Advanced (C1)
#Story :
Lira, a young woman born under a rare celestial event, is the key to an ancient prophecy that promises either salvation or destruction for the world. Raised in a secluded village, Lira is unaware of her destiny until a mysterious figure, Elias, arrives and reveals the prophecy. As she embarks on a journey to fulfill her fate, Lira faces the overwhelming decision of choosing between two paths: the light, which requires her self-sacrifice, and the darkness, which offers power at the cost of the world’s destruction. After an intense battle with the forces of darkness, Lira chooses the path of light, making the ultimate sacrifice to restore balance. Her legacy lives on as the world flourishes in peace, but she remains bound to her eternal duty as the guardian of the light.
