Round 16:

You take a deep breath, channeling your bardic abilities and the essence of light and darkness. With your voice, you begin to sing a heartfelt melody that weaves together the contrasting elements. Your voice carries the sorrow of shadows and the hope of light, creating a harmonious blend that resonates through the chamber.

As you sing, the Shadow Guardian's eyes soften, and its dark form seems to waver. It listens intently, swaying slightly to the rhythm of your melody. When you finish, there is a moment of silence.

Then, the Shadow Guardian speaks, its voice filled with a mix of awe and acceptance.

"Your melody has touched my heart, Bard," it says. "You have proven your worthiness. Take the Song of Eternity and fulfill your quest."

With those words, the Shadow Guardian dissipates into the darkness, leaving you alone with the shimmering crystal on the pedestal.

1. Take the Song of Eternity and complete your quest.

2. Inspect the chamber further for any hidden treasures or clues.

3. Sing a final song of gratitude and farewell to the Shadow Guardian.

Choose your next move, brave Bard!
