The Glass Gate

By Nena Buenaventura

In The Glass Gate, Lena, a journalist investigating strange disappearances in her small town, stumbles upon a mysterious, shimmering door hidden deep in the forest. Along with four others-Riley, Dex, Marcus, and Sophie-Lena is pulled through this Glass Gate and thrust into the world of Aeloria, a place of magic, ancient prophecies, and looming danger.

The group soon learns that they are Echoes-reincarnations of ancient heroes destined to stop the dark sorcerer Malvorn, who seeks to merge Aeloria and Earth, using the Glass Gate to reshape reality itself. As they unlock powers connected to their past selves, they must face both external threats and internal struggles. Trust is tested, betrayal lurks, and each character must confront their own doubts and fears.

The group's unity fractures as they are manipulated by Malvorn, leading to Sophie's shocking betrayal and Marcus's near-fatal sacrifice. Ultimately, the Echoes face a heart-wrenching decision: to stop Malvorn, they must sacrifice their powers-and Riley makes the ultimate offering, sealing the Glass Gate with his life force.

Despite their victory, the group is left shattered by grief and haunted by what they've lost. As they return to Earth, they struggle to adapt to a world without magic. However, an ancient prophecy warns that Malvorn's influence may still linger, and just when they think their journey is over, the Glass Gate reopens, signaling that their fate is far from sealed.

The Glass Gate is an epic tale of friendship, sacrifice, and the choices that define us, blending fantasy, action, and deep emotional arcs as the group faces the challenge of protecting not just one world, but two.
