The act of Enchantment
Chapter 2: The eve Samhain
Ever wondered why your reflection changes? Sometimes it feels as when you stare at a glass, a mirror, anything capable of giving off a reflection, you see a different type of yourself.
It isn't whatever you choose to put on yourself that makes you different but the difference inside.
Sounds awfully cheesy, I know.
"You look quite handsome, Tyler." I Nana says, beaming at me.
The person staring right at me is wearing a long sleeved white balowy shirt. The shirt is a 'V' neck with ropes at both ends of the collar–like V neck.
His pants are black and free, almost like loose sweatpants. He is free of every adornment.
His dark fringe is simply washed and left unbrushed.
I like the reflection staring back at me. This reflection is free of burden and everything weighing for tonight.
If only for tonight.
I smile, and turn back to my Nana, "thank you Nana."
My Nana smiles back at me. It is tradition that the parents of the young witch or warlock don't see them until they are brought out under the full moon.
The grandparents of the young mage are expected to prepare them for the crossover ritual during the Samhain full moon.
Where we become full bred Mages under ghetto Samhain full moon, during it's eve. The time and date where the veil between realms are supposedly thin.
According to Nana Katherine, during the eve of Samhain demons come to play. It is when every power under the sun are heightened and influenced by the conforming power of the full moon of Samhain.
Grandparents, great-grandparents, honestly anything related to the young mage with a grand are wiser and more powerful.
Their powers are stronger beyond imagination during this night, so they shall prepare the young Mage.
And my Nana is just the right elder to do the ritual.
When I think of the process to complete the crossover ritual my heart pounds. I'm scared.
I'm not scared of becoming a real mage from the young one I am now. I'm scared of having to bind myself to someone during this ritual.
I'm scared of having someone as a familier just so I could crossover.
The deeds of the crossover is quite easy, it is an honor to be bonded to your chosen familier.
But it is also a sign of maturity, loyalty, and an unexplainable connection to someone else.
I'm I ready for it? I let out a quiet chuckle. Maybe I shouldn't have been so soon to answer Conan's question.
I can already hear the drums beating as my Nana and I stop at the porch of my house.
Many people are here. Many of my kind are gathered, and here to watch young Mages crossover into adulthood.
My eyes land on a pair of dull blue ones. The owner of those blue eyes is wearing a knee short, plain white gown....
