Round 1

As the women stood before the makeshift altar, their collective energy crackled with anticipation. Jeane's wings stirred restlessly beneath her cloak, a physical manifestation of the unfulfilled desire that had drawn her to this ritual. Silra surveyed the setup with an eye that had assessed countless potential security breaches, noting the predictability of the candlelight and shadow patterns.

Halie stepped forward, her eyes moving between the women as she took in their nervous energy. The tension was palpable, with Hera and Abby clinging together like a lifeline. Halie's expression remained steadfast, a mask of calm that belied the fervor burning within. As the ritual began, the air thickened with unspoken emotions, the flickering candlelight casting an otherworldly glow over the proceedings.

Jeane's crimson eyes burned with focused anticipation, her body thrumming with the power of the ritual. Silra watched with a keen eye, her teal gaze flicking between the women as she assessed their reactions to the binding spell. The air vibrated with tension, each woman drawn into the vortex of the ritual like moths to a flame.
