Chapter 5 The Visitor and A New Journey

One day, as the sun bathed Eldoria in its golden embrace, a stranger arrived at the village. He introduced himself as Arkan, a scholar in search of ancient truths and forgotten legends. He had heard whispers of the Mirror of Self and the odyssey undertaken by Umar, Zainab, Faisal, and Musa.

Intrigued by the stranger's quest, the four friends gathered to hear his story. Arkan spoke of his desire to uncover the mirror's mysteries and learn from its reflections. Although hesitant to reveal the exact location of the Forgotten Temple, they shared stories of their journey, the challenges they faced, and the lessons they had learned.

Impressed by their tales, Arkan asked if they would accompany him on a new journey-an expedition to explore uncharted lands beyond Eldoria. Though hesitant at first, the friends realized that their thirst for adventure still burned within them. With the village's blessings and well-wishes, they set forth once more, guided by Umar's sense of direction.

Their expedition led them through deserts, across shimmering lakes, and to the peaks of towering mountains. Along the way, they encountered new cultures, faced unanticipated challenges, and forged bonds with those they met. As their journey progressed, they realized that the true treasure lay not in a single artifact, but in the experiences they shared and the knowledge they gained.
