Merci à nos 12 aventuriers d’avoir bravé les profondeurs avec nous pour explorer l'antre des sirènes ! Ces créatures à la beauté envoûtante et aux voix d'ange cachent, sous leur apparence ensorcelante, une nature bien plus sombre. Gardez-vous de leur chant séduisant… car il pourrait bien vous attirer vers les eaux profondes, là où nul ne remonte jamais.

Chapitre 4 : Le Repos des Profondeurs
Les ombres s’étiraient et se refermaient autour de "The Legend" alors qu'il pénétrait la cité immergée. Dans le silence oppressant des abysses, seuls les battements sourds de son cœur brisaient l'immobilité. Les tours de la cité se dressaient, leurs silhouettes perdues dans la pénombre, telles des gardiennes oubliées d’un royaume abandonné. Mais derrière cette tranquillité illusoire, il sentait une force ancienne l'observer, un souffle invisible qui semblait jauger son courage et sa détermination.
Guidé par la lueur mystérieuse émanant des pierres de la dague, il s’aventura dans les ruelles noyées sous la végétation marine. Les algues ondulaient autour de lui comme des bras fantomatiques, et de temps en temps, des éclats de lumière dansaient à la surface des bâtiments recouverts de corail et de coquillages luminescents. Dans cette cité, chaque pierre semblait posséder une mémoire, chaque recoin recelait les traces d’un peuple perdu, les sirènes qui autrefois régnaient ici.
Alors qu’il avançait, un murmure enfla dans son esprit, un écho des anciens chants siréniens, mélodique et menaçant, comme une voix venue du passé qui s’insinuait dans son âme. Ce n’était plus le simple chant envoûtant qui l’avait guidé jusqu’ici, mais une incantation complexe, un avertissement crypté qui parlait de sacrifice et de renoncement. "The Legend" s’arrêta, tentant de saisir le sens des mots éthérés qui flottaient à la lisière de sa conscience.
Soudain, il aperçut un édifice massif, plus ancien que tout le reste de la cité, taillé dans une roche noire, au centre de ce qui semblait être une grande place. Au-dessus de l'entrée, des symboles gravés dans la pierre, similaires à ceux du coffre de la dague, formaient une énigme qu'il savait devoir déchiffrer. Cette porte, imposante et menaçante, était le cœur de la cité engloutie, l’endroit où les secrets des abysses reposaient depuis des siècles.
Un étrange besoin s’empara de lui, l’incitant à s’approcher, mais une intuition le retint. Il sentait que franchir cette porte sans préparation pourrait entraîner sa perte. La dague qu'il portait vibra doucement dans sa main, et il comprit qu'elle était la clé de cette énigme. Le tribut qu'il avait déjà versé ne suffisait pas pour entrer ici. Ce sanctuaire exigeait davantage, un sacrifice plus grand, quelque chose de plus profond, peut-être même sa propre essence.
Il ferma les yeux et plongea en lui-même, explorant les souvenirs, les espoirs et les peurs qui l'habitaient. Dans cet instant de contemplation, il comprit ce que la cité attendait de lui. Ce n'était pas un simple échange de sang ou de mémoire, mais l'abandon d'une partie essentielle de lui-même. Pour franchir la porte, il devait renoncer à quelque chose de fondamental, quelque chose qui définissait son existence.
Après un instant d’hésitation, il murmura d’une voix tremblante : "Je renonce à ma quête d’immortalité." Ces mots lui brûlaient les lèvres, car il savait que c'était là le moteur même de son existence, le rêve qui l’avait poussé à affronter les océans et à défier les dieux. En renonçant à cette ambition, il se dépouillait de l'une des dernières attaches qui le liaient à son propre passé, mais il sentait que c'était le seul chemin.
À cet instant, la porte massive vibra et s’entrouvrit, laissant échapper un souffle glacé chargé d'une puissance ancienne. "The Legend" sentit la dague s'embraser dans sa main, et les pierres incrustées sur le manche prirent une teinte rouge sang, marquant le dernier tribut qu’il venait de verser.
Derrière la porte s’étendait une salle immense, baignée d’une lumière bleutée irréelle. Des statues de sirènes et de créatures des profondeurs ornaient les murs, leurs regards de pierre fixant l'intrus avec une intensité qui semblait presque vivante. Au centre, une grande vasque de cristal rempli d'une eau noire miroitante occupait la pièce, émettant une lueur surnaturelle. C'était la source du pouvoir des abysses, le réceptacle de la magie ancestrale des sirènes, protégée depuis des millénaires par les forces des profondeurs.
Mais il n'était pas seul. Une silhouette spectrale apparut de l’autre côté de la vasque, ses yeux vides et perçants fixant "The Legend" avec une intensité terrifiante. La créature était vêtue de haillons marins, et une couronne d’algues et de coquillages ornait sa tête. C’était le dernier roi des abysses, le gardien de cette cité oubliée. Sa voix résonna dans l'esprit de "The Legend", grave et impitoyable.
"Mortel, tu as franchi des épreuves et versé des tributs. Mais pour obtenir ce que tu désires, il te faudra accomplir l'ultime sacrifice. Es-tu prêt à abandonner ta dernière attache, ton nom, ton histoire, et devenir l’un des nôtres ?"
Les mots du roi frappèrent "The Legend" de plein fouet. Devant lui s’ouvrait une alternative qu'il n'avait pas anticipée. S'il acceptait, il serait libre de rester dans cette cité, de puiser dans les secrets des abysses, mais il ne serait plus qu’une ombre, un esprit condamné à hanter les profondeurs à jamais. S’il refusait, il devrait quitter cet endroit, mais avec la promesse que sa quête s'achèverait ici, pour toujours incomplète.
Le souffle court, il pesa longuement sa décision, mais au fond de lui, il savait déjà quel choix faire. Il prit une inspiration profonde, fixa le roi des abysses avec détermination, et déclara d’une voix ferme : "Je renonce à mon nom, à mon passé, et j’accepte de devenir l’un des vôtres."
Un silence lourd s’abattit dans la salle. La vasque s’illumina d'une lueur éclatante, et l'eau noire s’éleva dans les airs, enveloppant "The Legend" dans une étreinte glaciale. Les souvenirs de sa vie terrestre commencèrent à s'effacer, emportés par la magie des abysses. La dernière pensée qu’il eut avant de sombrer définitivement dans l’oubli fut celle d’une paix étrange, d'une libération totale.
Et ainsi, "The Legend" disparut pour devenir une ombre parmi les ombres, un gardien de la cité des sirènes, lié à jamais au repos des profondeurs, là où nul autre mortel n'oserait s’aventurer.
Chapter 4: The Resting Place of the Depths
The shadows stretched and closed around "The Legend" as he ventured further into the sunken city. In the oppressive silence of the abyss, only the muffled beat of his heart disturbed the stillness. The city's towers loomed, their shapes lost in darkness, standing like forgotten sentinels of an abandoned realm. Yet, behind the illusion of peace, he felt an ancient power watching him, an invisible presence measuring his courage and determination.
Guided by the mysterious glow emanating from the dagger’s stones, he wandered through alleys submerged beneath marine vegetation. The algae swayed around him like ghostly arms, and now and then, flickers of light danced across buildings adorned with coral and luminescent shells. In this city, every stone seemed to hold a memory; every corner concealed the traces of a lost people—the sirens who once reigned here.
As he ventured deeper, a murmur began to swell in his mind, an echo of ancient siren songs, melodic yet menacing, like a voice from the past seeping into his soul. It was no longer the simple, enchanting song that had guided him here, but a complex incantation, a cryptic warning that spoke of sacrifice and renunciation. "The Legend" stopped, trying to decipher the meaning of the ethereal words that hovered at the edge of his consciousness.
Suddenly, he saw a massive structure, older than any other part of the city, carved from black stone, standing at the center of what appeared to be a grand square. Above its entrance, symbols etched into the stone—similar to those on the dagger’s chest—formed a puzzle he knew he must unravel. This imposing, threatening door was the heart of the sunken city, the place where the secrets of the abyss had lain for centuries.
A strange compulsion urged him forward, but an intuition held him back. He sensed that entering this door unprepared could lead to his doom. The dagger in his hand pulsed softly, and he understood that it was the key to this enigma. The tribute he had already given was not enough to gain entry here. This sanctuary required more—a greater sacrifice, something deeper, perhaps even his very essence.
He closed his eyes and plunged inward, exploring the memories, hopes, and fears that dwelled within him. In this moment of reflection, he realized what the city demanded of him. It wasn’t a simple exchange of blood or memory but the surrender of a fundamental part of himself. To pass through the door, he would have to forsake something essential, something that defined his very existence.
After a moment of hesitation, he whispered in a trembling voice, "I renounce my quest for immortality." The words burned his lips, for he knew that this was the driving force behind his entire life, the dream that had propelled him to face the seas and defy the gods. By abandoning this ambition, he was stripping himself of one of the last ties binding him to his past, but he knew it was the only path.
At that moment, the massive door shuddered and creaked open, releasing a chilling breath laden with ancient power. "The Legend" felt the dagger ignite in his hand, and the stones embedded in its hilt took on a blood-red hue, marking the final tribute he had just offered.
Beyond the door stretched a vast hall, bathed in an eerie blue light. Statues of sirens and creatures of the deep lined the walls, their stone eyes fixed on the intruder with an intensity that felt almost alive. At the center, a large crystal basin filled with dark, shimmering water glowed with a supernatural aura. This was the source of the abyss's power, the vessel of the sirens’ ancient magic, protected for millennia by the forces of the depths.
But he was not alone. A spectral figure appeared on the other side of the basin, its empty, piercing eyes locking onto "The Legend" with a terrifying intensity. The creature was clad in tattered sea garments, and a crown of seaweed and shells adorned its head. It was the last king of the depths, the guardian of this forgotten city. Its voice resonated within "The Legend’s" mind, deep and unyielding.
“Mortal, you have faced trials and given tributes. But to obtain what you seek, you must make the ultimate sacrifice. Are you ready to forsake your last attachment, your name, your story, and become one of us?”
The king's words struck "The Legend" like a blow. Before him lay an alternative he had not anticipated. If he accepted, he would be free to remain in this city, to draw from the secrets of the abyss, but he would become nothing more than a shadow, a spirit condemned to haunt the depths forever. If he refused, he would have to leave this place, but with the promise that his quest would end here, forever incomplete.
His breath came short as he weighed his decision, but deep down, he already knew what choice he would make. He took a deep breath, fixed the king of the depths with resolute eyes, and declared in a firm voice, “I renounce my name, my past, and I accept to become one of yours.”
A heavy silence fell over the room. The basin glowed brightly, and the dark water rose into the air, enveloping "The Legend" in an icy embrace. Memories of his earthly life began to fade, swept away by the magic of the abyss. The last thought he had before surrendering completely to oblivion was one of strange peace, a total release.
And so, "The Legend" vanished to become a shadow among shadows, a guardian of the sirens’ city, bound forever to the resting place of the depths, where no other mortal would dare to venture.
