In the mysterious realm of Azura, where ancient magic dwelled within the phase of reality, a young apprentice named Elan toiled in the Tower of Shadows. The tower, a complex and confusing fortress of dark stone, was home to the cryptic and intriguing guardian, who had taken Elan under his wing.

Elan's days became indistinct as it felt like time was lost, as events became indistinguishable, and reality felt displaced together in a haze of study and experimentation. He sought to unlock the secrets of the tower's nine layers, each containing ancient volumes of knowledge, text and mysterious objects. Rumors whispered of a tenth layer, hidden beyond the veil of reality, and existence, where the ultimate truth awaited.

Determined to uncover the authenticity, certainty and truth, Elan dedicated himself to translation and interpretation of ancient texts and mysterious clues and evidence. His obsessions grew, and the lines between reality and madness became an unhidden puzzle.
One fateful night, Elan stumbled upon a hidden passage, hidden behind a bookshelf. The air was thick with anticipation as he ascended the stairs, his heart pounding in his chest, unhidden fear lingered in his face, but going back was not his option.
At the top, a door adorned with intricate symbols creaked open, revealing a realm beyond understanding. Elan stepped forward, and the door closed behind him.
In the tenth layer, Elan found himself, saw who he was, face to face with the guardian, who revealed a shocking truth: Elan was the creation of the guardian's darkest self, created to unlock the secrets of the tower.
As the truth broke his mind and walls of fear, Elan realized that the tenth layer was not a place of revelation but of self-discovery. He was both the seeker and the sought, forever bound to the tower's secrets.
And so, Elan remained, trapped in the tenth layer, forever discovering and uncovering the mysteries of the tower, himself and his existence.
