The night didn’t turn out how I thought it would. Here I was, trying to conjure up a demon. I had everything in place, all my tools, everything perfect and triple checked. I’ve done this before, so it wasn’t like I was a novice.
I painstakingly drew on the concrete slab, mapping out each symbol. I measured, used the right colours, and poured my salt. I chanted all the while, holding my purification candle and crystal.
I summoned my ancestors to help me in my task, feeling them swirl about me until they gained a glow and misma of their own. Their whispers comforted me, as I continued on with my task.
My familiar was with me, making cute squeaks as it fluttered around the area, sniffing here and there. It was never alarmed during the whole process.
So how did I end up in my own trap, when it was meant for another!
As I stand here, unable to move out of the circle, I can’t help but wonder what I did wrong. Nothing was out of place, nothing was amiss. Everything went as the same way as it did in other locations, at other times.
I wasn’t even a demon, I was an elf! This circle should have no hold over me!
As the night rolls on, getting dimmer and dimmer, I feel evil forces start to trickle around the area. My ancestors stay with me, trying to be a comfort, but they have little power to help what seems to be coming.
So I am left in the gloom, dimly lit by my magic, as the darkness ever encroaches.
How did she get trapped in her own trap, I wonder?
Well, if you like the trap, it is actually meant to go on the wall, as it is a florescent sign. I just thought it looked cool on the ground. You can find it at the second round of the Ritual event, which is on it’s last day.
I’m wearing a decent amount of items from Ritual, which pair up well with the new items you can find at Midnight Order, which just opened.
I am also wearing this Hanky Styled Halter Top from Sn@tch, which is a newer item you can find at the mainstore. It perfectly showcases the tattoo I got from Endless Pain Tattoos, but derpy me didn’t take a back shot. The Top just drapes in the front, but leaves your whole back exposed. Perfect for those epic back tattoos, if you feel like showing them off.
I took a little clip of this Crystal from Torment, as I thought the animation was sort of different. You can find this at Ritual as well.
REMINDER: LAST DAY FOR THE SECOND ROUND OF RITUAL!!!!
