They each took a couple of candles and placed them along the edges of the salt circle.

"Now, we need to stand around the pentagram and hold each other's hands. Then add our mana to the candles," Rya explained.

They all got into position as Rya stood in front of the point of the pentagram that was facing true north.

"A-Are you sure this is going to work? I can leave if-" Nieren was interrupted by Dalia.

"I thought you were an adventurer? Don't worry, we'll be fine. I've seen a lot of weird things in my lifetime," Dalia reassured.

"I'm older than you!" Nieren said.

"What does that have to-"

"ENOUGH! You two need to focus your mana into your hands, and I'll take care of the rest, okay?" Rya said as she was able to get the bickering girls' attention.

"Okay..." Nieren reluctantly agreed.

"Sorry, Alpha..." Dalia apologized.

"Good... Now focus your mana into your hands... I won't let anything happen to you guys. I promise," Rya said.

Dalia and Nieren closed their eyes.

Once they all finished focusing their mana into their hands, Rya started to chant the incantation.

Then the mana flowed towards the God's Tear and made it pulse to life before the mana lit the five candles on the edge of the pentagram with black flames. When the candles lit up, the pentagram started to glow a faint purple. After a few seconds, the gold and silver coins began to melt and flow into the pentagram.

"What the heck is going on?!" Dalia screamed out.

"It looks like the gold and silver are flowing into the pentagram! This is creepy!" Nieren exclaimed.

"Shhhh! It's almost done. The black flames are going to get bigger," Rya replied.

After the last coin flowed into the pentagram, the lines of the rune turned bright red as the God's Tear started to light up with rainbow colors while the pentagram started to shrink down and move closer to the egg-shaped crystal in the center of the table. After a few more seconds, the God's Tear began to morph into something they couldn't make out. The pentagram glowed brighter and brighter until its blinding light forced the three women to close their eyes. The candles melted down into nothing, and everything in the room went pitch black as the magical torches went out.

"H-Hey, what happened? Are we cursed?" Nieren asked in a panicked state.

'Nieren! Your fear of curses is getting annoying... Haah... Whatever this thing is close to finishing.' Rya thought as she controlled the mana flow inside the salt circle.

"No, not yet. Just stay calm. We're almost there," Rya said calmly.

She then opened her eyes to the pitch black and looked at her friends. "Now, we have to close our eyes again, and when I tell you to, open your eyes."

Dalia and Nieren both nodded.

"Let's try to keep our breathing steady and silent. If we do that, we should be able to calm ourselves down before we open our eyes," Rya whispered.

Both of them closed their eyes and waited for Rya to start chanting again.

'I feel it! This is amazing!' Rya thought to herself.

At some point, the God's Tear morphed into a demonic monocle with an intricate gold and silver frame. The crystal that turned into the glass looked pitch black and had a purple glow inside of it as the room became visible again once the magical torches were able to relight with its mana no longer getting interfered with.
