The forgotten ritual

An ancient temple, its walls cracked and covered in glowing runes, stands alone in a desert landscape. Shrouded in fog, the interior is illuminated by pulsing crystal energy as a black-robed figure performs a ritual. Around the temple, half-buried statues and machinery litter the dead desert floor. In the background, ruined towers cast long shadows under greenish clouds, while ghostly dragons or spirits hover above, adding an eerie ambiance to the scene.
