As Dorian and Kael gazed out onto the lake's surface, the water began to ripple and churn once more. This time, the images that appeared were different. They were visions of the future, of possibilities and potential outcomes.
Dorian saw himself standing in a great hall, surrounded by people who looked up to him with reverence. He saw himself wielding a sword, fighting against dark forces that threatened the land. He saw himself standing alone, looking out over a vast expanse of wilderness.
Kael's eyes were wide with wonder as he watched the visions unfold. "What do you see?" he asked Dorian.
Dorian's eyes were fixed on the lake's surface. "I see possibilities," he said. "Paths that I can take, choices that I can make."
The visions continued, revealing more and more of the potential futures that lay ahead. Dorian felt a sense of excitement and trepidation as he realized the choices he had to make.
As the visions faded, Dorian turned to Kael with a determined look in his eyes. "I know what I need to do," he said. "I need to follow my heart and make the choices that feel right for me."
Kael nodded, a smile spreading across his face. "I think that's the right path," he said. "Let's see where it takes us."
Together, they turned away from the lake and continued on their journey, ready to face whatever lay ahead. The lake's secrets had been revealed, and Dorian felt a sense of clarity and purpose that he had never felt before.
As they walked, the forest seemed to grow quieter, as if it was holding its breath in anticipation of what was to come. Dorian felt a sense of excitement and anticipation building within him, and he knew that their journey was far from over.
