 SUMMER FOREVER
Etta listened quietly as she took notes in her parchment, making sure she hadn’t missed out on any important detail. As much as she tried to like this subject, she just couldn’t manage to actually enjoy it.. somehow. Not as much as she enjoyed some of the other subjects, at least. But, she definitely did make an effort to be reasonably good at it so that was something, yeah?
Intaglio Algiz. The prefect kept repeating it softy until she was sure her pronounciation was correct. Just to be sure. Okay.. moving on. She focused on the suit of armour, wand in hand, picturing the rune in her head as the Headmistress had instructed. “Intaglio Algiz.” The girl said clearly, repeating the incantation while moving her wand across the centre.. until the carving was complete. There. She was rather pleased with the way it turned out, to be honest.
Next.. they had to activate the rune. She watched the Headmistress demonstrate it for them before she turned to concentrate on her suit of armour. She placed her hand on the carving and chanted slowly and precisely.
"Elhaz elhaz elhaz, z z z z z z z z z, uz az iz ez uz, oz ez iz az uz, z z z z z z z z z, (m m m m m m m m m)."
...... and it worked! On her first try, that too. She watched as the rune glowed a lovely shade of purple. HEH. Trying not to look too pleased, she turned to look at the Headmistress, wondering what she had in store for the next.
