Elara the sorceress

The Trials of Elara the Sorceress

Let's begin

Elara

You have been chosen to enter the tower and solve the mysteries left by Elara. However, the tower is protected by four magical rooms, each guarded by riddles that test your knowledge of Modal Verbs in the Past, specifically about expressing Past Obligation using Had to and Must (in the past). To succeed, you must solve the puzzles in each room. Only then will you unlock the final chamber and discover what happened to Elara. But be warned—if you fail, the tower may trap you forever.

Elara, a powerful sorceress, was once the protector of the magical realm. However, during a battle against a dark force, she mysteriously disappeared, leaving behind her enchanted tower. Rumor has it that the tower holds the key to Elara’s fate, but it is guarded by powerful spells. Only those with a sharp mind and a deep understanding of magical rules can uncover the truth.
