**Chapter 46: The Eternal Vigil**
With the Heartstone's power, the realm was temporarily safe. But Lina knew that darkness never truly vanished—it merely hid, waiting for moments of weakness. To safeguard the future, she established the Eternal Vigil—a council of guardians representing all realms and races, dedicated to preserving peace and hope.
As the guardians took their posts, Lina and her friends looked toward the horizon, aware that new adventures and threats could arise at any moment. Their journey had transformed them, forging bonds that transcended time and space.
In the twilight, Lina gazed at the stars, feeling the presence of her ancestors and the countless beings who believed in the light. She understood that her true destiny was to be a beacon of hope—an eternal guardian of the realm's future.
