Title: The Last Guardian

Level: Advanced (C1-C2)

Story:

In the ancient kingdom of Eldoria, the world is on the brink of destruction as the Veil, the barrier between light and darkness, begins to break. The only hope lies with Kael, the last of the Guardians of the Aether, an exiled warrior who once swore never to fight for a kingdom that had forsaken him. But when he learns of a prophecy—the awakening of Erynn, an Aetherborn marked by destiny—he is forced to return. As Nightborn creatures rise and a monstrous Titan emerges to claim her power, Kael and Erynn must fight against time, fate, and their own doubts to stop the darkness from consuming their world. With epic battles, ancient magic, and a breathtaking final showdown, they realize that this is only the beginning of a war that will determine the fate of all realms.
