The Battle for the Mystic Crystal

The ballroom was illuminated by the radiance of a crystal chandelier, which sent fragmented hues all around its walls and floor, making the ballroom even more beautiful.

Yet despite this great display of wealth and luxury, there was this weird and disturbing feeling in the air.

A very prosperous business man by the name Draven, possessed so many strange and powerful crystals, each having its special ability, besides that he had a large estate, and had acquired his wealth through illicit (illegal) methods (with the help of those strange and powerful crystals). His rise to power, and dominance was driven by both unquenchable gluttony and immoral actions, making him one of the most feared people, in the hearts of numerous civic fellows. Nevertheless, there existed one material object he eagerly desired more greatly than anything else: an extraordinary crystal that was believed to have held supernatural abilities, which was way more than the ones he already had.

For years, Draven was deeply fascinated with the crystal and he was really determined to do anything to acquire it. Those who worked for him scoured every corner of the earth searching for it but had come up empty-handed thus far, until one fateful day when a young lady by name Sarah, unexpectedly entered his life.

The portrait of Draven was being painted by Sarah, who had been assigned the task because of how good she was at drawing, and also because of her stunning appearance.

During the painting process, she came across a crystal that caught her attention as it was kept carelessly in plain sight on his work desk. The mesmerizing piece intrigued her enough for an inquiry which led to Draven revealing all information surrounding its significance; drawn towards Sarah's innocence and beauty.

Sarah was deeply disturbed by the appalling things she heard however, Draven's allure and charm were irresistible to her. His interest in her craft seemed sincere which led them to spend a significant amount of time together causing Sarah to develop romantic feelings for him eventually.

As their attachment developed into something deeper, Sarah unveiled the dark mysteries that Draven had concealed. She came across his accountability for a large number of violations and realized he would not give up from achieving his desires by resorting to any means necessary.

Luckily for her, Draven unknown to him spilled out a very vital information about the very location of the crystal he has always longed for, unknown to him... Turns out the crystal was just within that very community . The very next day, Sarah stylishly went in search of the crystal. She was cognizant that prompt action was mandatory before Draven could lay hold on its possession. With the help of some of her friends, she initiated a pursuit aimed at reclaiming that very treasure - the crystal in question.

This quest proved to be full of perils and obstacles that had to be overcome magnificently. After much persistence, they arrived at the clandestine vault where the precious crystal was located. Upon extending her hand towards it, Sarah experienced an overwhelming rush of extraordinary strength flowing through every fiber in her body.

Abruptly, a comprehension dawned upon her about the actual essence of the crystal. It was not merely an item of worth; instead it held great potentiality to alter even the world itself. Sarah felt overtaken by intense gravity and obligation as she realized that preserving its integrity at every expense lay on her shoulders now.

However, Draven on the other hand, who seemed to have carelessly spoken about the crystal, was smart enough to monitor Sarah's every move and so Sarah and her search team indirectly led him to the location too. As soon as he saw Sarah with the crystal, He relentlessly chased after her with an unyielding resolve to attain the crystal...although Sarah's friends tried to hold him down so as to give sarah enough time to leave the scene, their strength was just no match for his hence they couldn't stop him. At this point, it was evident that whoever held this crystal last (defeated the other), would be the one that decided the destiny of mankind as a whole.

Amidst their very presence, Sarah perceives the force exuding from within the crystal. It is only through its power that she may emerge victorious over Draven at last. Her resolute nature thus invokes a mighty energy surge which engulfs Draven completely and leaves no trace of him behind.

In the wake of what had transpired, Sarah rose to prominence as a savior, lauded by many for her courageousness and sacrificial nature. She was responsible for rescuing the world from the grasp of an insane individual while simultaneously proving that even those with corrupt intentions could be reclaimed. Observing the radiant crystal she held in her hand,

It became apparent that its strength would enable her to perform good deeds globally; spreading optimism and facilitating recovery amongst people who were most deserving of them.

Thanks For Reading ❤️

The dastardly desires of Draven were neatly circumvented by the cunning decency of the delightful painter who had nothing other than determination, bravery and defiance in her soul.
