Arwyn gets into the plan with the cleansing spell and the binding spell. "I will cleanse this area with the bowl of Cedar, Cinnamon, Clove, Lavender, Parsley and sage. As the herbs are burning in the bowl I will walk around the the circle waving the smoke with my hand. I will be chanting the entire time, so I will need all of you to stand there and be quiet. When I am done with the circle, I will move to each of you and wave the smoke toward you while still chanting the same spell over and over, I will do this for you Mayla and Willo as well. There won't be anything to fear. Okay?" Arwyn looks over at Mayla who's holding Willo. "Okay miss Arwyn." Mayla says with a soft smile. Arwyn smiles again and continues to address everyone. " When the smoke stops, I will the take the silver pin and poke each of your left index fingers. I need a couple drops at first to anoint Willo. After I anoint him with our blood, I will prick his finger and add a few drops to ours. I will place this bowl in the place of the empty one that is at the point of the star. Now for the hard part. I will need each of you to cut your left arm a few inches above your wrist. I need the blood to keep flowing till the spell is over." Arywn looks around at every ones faces. "What about Mayla?" Zaoria asks. "If she passes out or her blood stops, I will take her place with my right arm and bleed for her." Kallon says with a stern voice. Arwyn nods her head. "It will be done. The spell that Kallon wrote will work." She says as Leigha and Zaoria look at her. "HE wrote it? What does he know of this? He can't be trusted." Leigha says. Kallon stands up and walks over to Arwyn and stares at Leigha. "This spell was my mother's. It will work because she used some of it on me to hide my royal aura. When I come of age, so in about 4 years, the spell will lift. As for Willo. It will bind his powers but he is one with nature that we need his powers to go into Mother Tree. I am hoping that she is willing to accept that power till Willo needs it or he becomes of age and his family has talked to him about everything." Leigha and Zaoria just huff. "If nobody has any other questions or remarks. It's getting about that time." Kallon says as he walks over to Mayla and Willo.
The Elders walk till they are around the circle by Mother Tree. Arwyn places the herbs in the bowl and lights them on fire. The small flame starts to produce a good about of smoke so she lightly blows it out. She walks around the circle chanting the cleansing chant.
CLEANSING CHANT
Incense, air of high refine.
Purify this space of mind
Purged and purified be this place that I have chosen as magical space.
Herbs of Mother Earth give blessing here to me.
This rite, this scared sphere.
Protect and cleanse this sacred place,
Hallow is now as my magical space.
When Arwyn finishes with the circle she moves towards the elders. One by one she chants and waves the smoke around them. When she finishes the chant she moves on to the next one and the next till it's just her. She places the bowl on the bench and waves the smoke toward herself chanting...
Uphold the rules of the Rede.
Be high in spirit ye shall succeed.
Power of the Elements Five, will help Mother Nature stay alive.
From gains of Earth to the moving air,
Past the burning Fire that magic flares.
Flow with Water, lakes and streams,
Around the Spirits aura and dreams.
The smoke goes out and then Arwyn then takes out the silver pin and picks up the empty bowl on the ground at the tip of her star. She walks up to Turambil first. She pricks his finger and squeezes a few drops of blood into the bowl. "Thank you Turambil for this small sacrifice to our circle." She moves to Leigha. Pricks her finger and squeezes a few drops of blood into the bowl. "Thank you Leigha for this small sacrifice to our circle. She then pokes Zaoria. "Thank you Zaoria for this small sacrifice to our circle." Then to Besihal. "Thank you Beshial for this small sacrifice to our circle." Arwyn moves from each Elder with a little poke and a few drops of blood and repeating the same thing over to each one of them. Finally she gets to herself. She pricks her finger and squeezes a few drops in the bowl. She mutters a few words and walks over to Willo. She places her thumb in the blood and then puts her thumb on Willo's forehead then on each cheek. She then takes out the silver pin once more and pokes Willo's finger. He starts to cry a little but stops. "Thank you Willo for this small sacrifice to our circle." All the Elders look around waiting for something to happen since Willo started to cry when he got his finger poked. Kallon is looking around to everyone. "What are you all doing?" Mayla starts to giggle. "They are all convinced that every time Willo cries something will happen. You know like with the first full moon." Kallon nods his head. "I see. Well, I don't sense anything. I think we're all good." Arwyn takes Willo from Mayla and places him on the ground in the center of the circle. "I'm going to open the circle first. When I nod then you will each take your turn in cutting your arm and leave it pointed down so the blood drips into the ring with the flowers and other items in it. Arwyn moves to light all the candles and while she does that, the Elders form their circle around the pentagram.
