Torii had made up her mind. She was going to use jade. It was pretty and green, and it reminded her of Slytherin house. Yes, Slytherin house--the one at Hogwarts and not her beloved house she'd been sorted into at Ilvermorny. She might just be getting a little bit used to this whole move across the world.

The professor had said to be in harmony with the stone she chose, so...that should put her in harmony with it, right?

The Slytherin made her way over to the table and surveyed the selection of stones, making double sure of her choice. When her eyes settled on the jade ones, she knew it was the right choice. They were so pretty and made her smile. One in particular drew her attention, so she scooped it up. Deciding on cleansing the stone with water, Torii selected a pouch and tucked the stone carefully inside. She submerged the stone into the water and checked the time. Five to ten minutes.

So how was she supposed to feel its energy? She stared down at it, and after about six minutes, she knew the time was right. She just felt drawn back to the stone, and she carefully lifted it out of the water. Time for step two now, right?
