> "Some temples were buried not by time — but by shame."

Guided by a map inside Lyra's relic, the team headed into the forest mountains.
Kain sensed it first. "There's death magic here… but peaceful."
At the edge of the valley, hidden under overgrown trees, stood a ruined stone temple. But the stones still glowed.
"It's using old-style holy seals," Lyra whispered. "Like… pre-Church."
They stepped inside.
Inside the ancient temple was a forgotten altar, cracked and stained — but resting on it was a floating crystal heart, pulsing softly with gray and gold.
Rael's hand glowed the moment he stepped closer.

Rael reached out.
"Yes."

Suddenly — the temple trembled.
Outside, a Church Enforcer Dragon, powered by divine artifacts, landed with a roar.
"They found us," Kain gasped.
Rael stood firm.
"Then it's time we showed them what a Soulbound Healer can do."
