Remember why we're here. Remember our love."Those words stirred something within Luna. Determination flooded her being as she mustered every ounce of strength left in her. With a surge of willpower, Luna pushed back against the overwhelming energy coursing through her veins.

The stones shimmered, displaying symbols and ancient rituals. They revealed the process of a Moon Ritual, a sacred ceremony that would allow Luna to forge an unbreakable bond with the moon, to fully awaken her latent powers."Seek the Lunar Pool at the highest peak of the Silver Mountains," the voice whispered. "There, under the light of the full moon, perform the Moon Ritual. Only then will the true extent of your power be unleashed."Luna's heart leaped with excitement and trepidation. She knew that undertaking such a journey would not be without its perils, but she also understood the magnitude of the task at hand. The fate of her pack and the forest depended on her success.Determined, Luna turned to Amelia and Elias. "We're going to the Silver Mountains," she declared.

Luna scanned their surroundings, her mind frantically trying to piece together the puzzle. And then, her eyes landed on a peculiar symbol etched into the wall of the corridor – a crescent moon intertwined with a rose."The symbol…" Luna whispered, her voice barely audible. "It's a message, Amelia. A clue to the way out."Amelia followed Luna's gaze, her eyes widening in realization. "The rose... It's the symbol of our kind, Luna.
