Reading Passage: The Guardian's Quest
In the shadowed valleys of Eldermoor, Aiden’s journey was fraught with peril and discovery. Once a hesitant apprentice, he had blossomed into a resolute hero after facing the Dragon of Dusk, a creature whose fiery breath had long guarded the secrets of the ancients. As Aiden stepped forward, his heart pounding like thunder, he recalled the words of the wise old sorcerer: ‘Courage is not the absence of fear, but the resolve to press on despite it.’ His eyes shimmered with resolve, and with a steady hand, he grasped his enchanted sword, determined to unveil the mysteries that awaited beyond the horizon.
