Chapter 1 – The Night Everything Changed
The night was very quiet.
Ji Young was sitting outside the small house.
His little sister, Ji Min, was sleeping inside.
They lived in a peaceful village.
People here were kind.
No one feared the dark.
Suddenly, the wind became cold.
Ji Young felt something was wrong.
The sky turned dark.
Strange shadows moved between the trees.
A loud sound broke the silence.
Boom!
Houses began to burn.
People screamed and ran.
Ji Young ran inside the house.
He shook Ji Min gently.
"Ji Min, wake up," he said.
His voice was shaking.
Ji Min opened her eyes.
She saw fear in her brother's face.
"What happened?" she asked.
"There is no time," Ji Young said.
"Hold my hand. Don't let go."
They ran outside.
Dark creatures filled the village.
Their eyes glowed red.
They destroyed everything.
Ji Min was scared.
Her heart beat very fast.
Suddenly, a dark creature jumped toward them.
Ji Young stood in front of his sister.
He closed his eyes.
At that moment, a bright light burst out.
The light came from Ji Min.
The creatures screamed and disappeared.
The light slowly faded.
Ji Min fell to her knees.
Ji Young caught her.
He looked at her with shock.
"Ji Min… what was that?" he whispered.
Ji Min looked at her hands.
They were glowing softly.
"I… I don't know," she said.
Far away, in the darkness,
someone opened their eyes and smiled.
"The Light has awakened,"
a dark voice said.
The journey had begun.
