Dacian flipped through the pages as fast as he could, grateful Marie had left the book where only he could find it. It proved to be very useful for what he was going to do. He moves to the ritual circle, placing the book down in the center of the circle, with a small bag of items and moves quickly, placing candles in their respective places.
He was shaky as he lights each candle, calling upon each element to join the circle. He knew he didn't have much time. He sits in the center, calling Nebula over. The bird rests in his lap, as he lights the final candle in front of him. Then he begins the chant.
"Écoutez mes paroles et entendez mon cri. Les éléments nous gardent en sécurité et nous éloignent de ce tourment."
He continues to chant, as each element surrounds them. The smell of burning wood. The feeling of a crisp autumn breeze. The smell of rain. The smell of clean dirt and mud. And the most familiar scent.. to him.. chocolate cake. To any other person, it would be their favorite scent. Fire, Air, Water, Earth, Spirit.
The area changed quickly, but Dacian didn't stop until they were somewhere safe. Only then did he stop, his energy drained. Nebula nudges him, and he slumped, panting. Nebula hops up, nudging him again. He mumbles, feeling heavy, exhaustion setting in. Everything hurt and he felt nauseous. The candles had burned out at this point. "Nebula, va chercher de l'aide." He instructs, and the bird flies up, in search of the help he needed.
She finds a building with people going in, and dives, finding her way inside. Then she sensed it.. magic? She flies through, silently, finding the source. Three women. Two of them were walking away, and she lands, in front of the final woman. "Help. Help." She cawed, eerily. "Injury. Master. Witch. Burning. Burning."
