Now Olivia would have to try to activate the galdr right? Okay, here goes nothing. She decided to recap her notes before moving on to attempt it. The galdr will glow white when it is activated. Okay. She could do this. What did she have to say? Ehwo ehwo ehwo, e e e e h w o o o, ehwu ehwa ehwi ehwe ehwo, ehwo ehwe ehwi ehwa ehwu, e e e e h w o o o.

With the pendant in her hands, she calmed her mind. Focus on the pendant. Protection. Horses. Friendship. Bonding. Horses. She closed her eyes, allowing herself to stay in an active, focused mindset before opening them and chanting,"Ehwo ehwo ehwo, e e e e h w o o o, ehwu ehwa ehwi ehwe ehwo, ehwo ehwe ehwi ehwa ehwu, e e e e h w o o o." Nope. Nothing had happened. Hmm....

She'd try it again. She closed her eyes, gripped the pendant closer to her, and began, "Ehwo ehwo ehwo, e e e e h w o o o, ehwu ehwa ehwi ehwe ehwo, ehwo ehwe ehwi ehwa ehwu, e e e e h w o o o." Olivia opened her right eye to check on the progress. Still no white glow. Nothing. Nada. Goose eggs. She groaned. Again. "Ehwo ehwo ehwo, e e e e h w o o o, ehwu ehwa ehwi ehwe ehwo, ehwo ehwe ehwi ehwa ehwu, e e e e h w o o o." Nothing once more. Another groan. This chant was so weird. Enough. Focus. Feel the words. Protection. Bonding. Horses. Friendship. "Ehwo ehwo ehwo, e e e e h w o o o, ehwu ehwa ehwi ehwe ehwo, ehwo ehwe ehwi ehwa ehwu, e e e e h w o o o". A tiny sliver of a white glow appeared. Not good enough.

She took a deep breath, gripping the pendant a little tighter, before loosening her grip and letting all the tension leave her body. She was ready. Olivia was determined. This had to be it. Calm. Deep breath.... "Ehwo ehwo ehwo, e e e e h w o o o, ehwu ehwa ehwi ehwe ehwo, ehwo ehwe ehwi ehwa ehwu, e e e e h w o o o," she said softly but in a commanding voice. She watched as the rune began to glow a white colour just as the Headmistress' had.

Not too shabby.
