As the mixing and preparing of regents finally concluded, Pela gave a bewildered look to the other two women. Raising her brows and shaking her head, she gave the slightest chuckle and took a deep breath of satisfaction.
”Well, if that is all we ended up with, I would hate to see what it would take to make more than just that measly morsel. But if this will do the trick, then I suppose we have done good work.”As the three women made their way into the heart of Heartlund, Pela took a good look at the knights that now occupied the Keep and surrounding property. There were so many she wasn’t sure where to look first. When they finally reached the location the portal was going to be constructed in, she was amazed at how easily Ceridwyn took control of the situation and began o have the soldiers clear the area.\
When Ceri told the guards if something went wrong the place could explode, Pela blinked her eyes and look at Ceri and Rayann. Rayann’s expression was unreadable but when Ceri shared the truth with Pela, the girl had trouble keeping a straight face.
As the area was cleared, Pela looked over at Ceri as she pulled out the parchment with the drawing of the arch on it. After a moments study, Pela looked over at Ceri and Rayann and smiled brightly, nodding.
”Indeed I can.”With one more glance around, Pela stepped away from Rayann and Ceri. Closing her eyes for a moment to gain her center, Pela opened her eyes and slowly raised her hands. The very air around her began to chill and those closest to her could feel the cold as well. Her hands glowed slightly then a blast of sheer ice erupted from both hands. As the ice began to build upon itself the arches began to form. Slowly but surely the two semi circles formed exactly the way Ceri had drawn thick enough they would last for a long duration or until the portal was no longer needed.
When she was done Pela lowered her hands then looked at her work. Finally she blinked and turned her head to look over at Ceri and Rayann and smiled a genuine smile.
”One archway, complete.”As Rayann stood and watched the young frost mage, she was reminded of her daughter once again. There were so many likeness in both of the young women while there were so many differences at the same time. As Pela stepped away and began to weave her magic, Rayann once more felt the pull on the magic field that surrounded her.
As the air around them grew colder, Rayann knew if this young, wild mage could definitely be a force to be reckoned with. Looking at Pela as she weaved her spell Rayann noticed it was very little effort for the young woman to make the arch. When the arch was completed, she looked over at Pela and noticed the young woman barely seemed winded.
When Pela looked over and smiled at Rayann and Ceri, Rayann couldn’t help but smile back. Nodding to Pela, she looked over at Ceri and nodded as well.
”Shall we my friend?”
