Feeling a surge of protectiveness towards the young woman, you make a fateful decision. You offer yourself as a sacrifice to shield her from harm, stepping forward to face the ghostly figure and fulfill its demand. As you bravely stand before the malevolent spirit, it gazes at you with hollow eyes filled with ancient hatred. The air grows colder around you, your breath forming frosty clouds in the eerie light. The young woman's terrified eyes meet yours, gratitude shining through her fear-stricken expression. The ghostly figure raises its spectral hand, ready to claim its due.
Just as the ghostly hand is about to touch you, a thunderous roar echoes through the ruins. From the shadows emerges a mighty warrior clad in armor adorned with intricate runes, wielding a gleaming sword that seems to radiate with divine power. The warrior charges towards the ghostly figure, engaging it in a fierce battle that shakes the very foundations of the ruins. The ground trembles beneath your feet as the clash of steel and ethereal wails fill the air.
