Endric laid out the items, forming a perimeter around a drawn runic circle.

The runes, etched into the ground with a precision that spoke of ancient knowledge, seemed to dance in the fading light, awaiting an infusion of energy to awaken them from their slumber.

They all stepped forward as Gustav directed them to stand in specific positions.

Gustav and Aildris stood at opposite ends of the circle, their hands extended as they gathered energy that permeated the ancient circle. Ria and Endric moved around the perimeter, ensuring each item resonated with the energy being channeled.

As the ritual progressed, the air around them became charged, the boundary between the physical and the ethereal blurring. The runes started to glow, a soft light at first, growing in intensity with each passing moment until the circle became a beacon of pulsating energy.
