Listening to Beau, she hit herself mentally for being so stupid. "Ohh, of courrse!" She smacked her own forehead. She always thought the relation to their own alphabet to be one of the most important things in Runes, and under such stress she completely forgot about linking them to their actual names. Hopefully Headmistress Enzo would never hear about this. Zéline shook her head again and paid attention to what Beau was saying. "W, Y, R, D? Wyrd? " She repeated out loud, but before she could think or say anything else, the walls started to move!
"Non, non, non, non!" Zéline tried to concentrate, closing her eyes tightly and shaking her head, both of her hands grabbing her hair. "W, Y, R, D. Wyrd." She once again muttered a few things in French before opening her eyes widely and looking straight ahead. "Wyrd!" She stared into Beau's eyes and spoke almost out of breath. "Zee desteeny crreated by zee links beetween all sings and our own choices!" Zéline didn't know what that had to do with the task, but that was certainly a word! "Zere! We need to carve it zere!" She pointed at the plaque and rushed that way.
Would they be able to do it before time ran out??? Zéline was a mix of anxiety and excitement as she got closer to the plaque.
Beau gave a sigh of relief it seemed when he had spoken in French she had calmed down. For now at least.
He chuckled when he saw the realization hit her.
"You skipped ze names." But that was okay Zéline always just linked them usually right? W, Y, R, D. Wyrd that sounded familiar!! He closed his eyes what did it mean... He opened them hearing Zéline repeat non, non, non, non he opened his eyes abruptly! What did it mean he couldn't remember! Luckily Zéline did.
"Oui! Zat is what eet means!" following Zéline he quickly ran over to the plaque! They had to hurry, it was almost out of time.
So now we seemply crave ze runes." "I'll carve two." He scanned the plaque quickly before he held up his wand and took a breath. His first rune first,
"Intaglio Wunjo... Wunjo... Wunjo... Wunjo...Wunjo..." he chanted, focusing and his wand moving in that familiar P shape of the Wunjo rune. Sharp P. No curves in there at all, no curves. He remembered as he started to form the > of the rune.
Some time later the P shape of the Wunjo rune was carved onto the wood and Beau let out a grin, he didn't do those often. He smirked sometimes but never did he grin. Okay so now the second one.
"Intaglio Eihwaz... Eihwaz... Eihwaz... Eihwaz...Eihwaz..." The rune was a backwards Z shape. His focused more on this rune, he did not want to mess up. He made sure the middle line was straight when he got to that point, he had to. He could not mess up!!
When he was done, the French boy actually grinned a second time before stepping away from the rune and turned to Zéline and put his hand on her shoulders, knowing French helped her last time just in case there was any nervousness or stress whatever it was left in here he said,
"C'est ŕ votre tour de tailler les runes. Vous pouvez le faire."
