~she starts chanting: "beannaich sibh, spiorad de am talamh agus am tuath. Mise thir sibh am cumhachd seo de mo aigne.
~She shaves off a piece of her staff, where her hands touch the most, and places it in front of the druid/wolf fetish, with a tiny piece of the flax~
"beannaich sibh, spiorad de am aile agus am ear. Mise thir sibh am fuil seo de mo aigne.
~She sets a tiny piece of the sage in front of the fetish and picks up the sword, pricking her finger. She lets the blood drip onto the sage.~
~"beannaich sibh, spiorad de am uisage agus am iar. Mise thir sibh am na deoir seo de mo aigne.
~She sets a tiny piece of the sphagnum in front of the fetish and picks up the axe, letting her tears drop onto the axe. She lets the tears run off the axe onto the sphagnum.~
~"beannaich sibh, spiorad de am teine agus am deas. Mise thir sibh am falt seo de mo aigne.
~She sets a tiny piece of the nettle and cowslip in front of the fetish and picks up the dagger, cutting hair off the end of her braid. She sets the hair upon the nettle and cowslip.~
~"beannaich sibh, spiorad de am aigne agus am meadhonach. Mise thir sibh am tiodhlac seo de mo aigne.
She raises her hands above her head. She closes her eyes, and the runes upon her body, start to glow with the colors of their power................................."I invoke the powers of protection for this man, I have given of myself, and will protect him with the spiorad de am madadh-allaidh....."
The offerings placed in front of the fetish start to smoke. In a brilliant flash of light that knocks Cyril to his back, the fetish starts to glow. Smoke swirls around the figures, and out of the smoke step the shadowy figures of an ancient Druid and wolf.......They turn and look at Cyril then at TAO, and nod once, speaking in a voice of pure light together, "We have heard, and so shall it be, liath-madadh-allaidh". The Druid figure reaches down, and lays a hand on Cyril's forehead, leaving a rune only TAO and her kind will see, and give him a name........."nageamhraidhean madadh". The figure smiles and it and the wolf disappear slowly, fading away like the dawn's dew, the wolf letting out a long howl of protection, then they are gone............ KayLisa falls to her knees, and gulps air into her breath-starved lungs, only now realizing she was holding her breath. She looks at Cyril.................~it is done, and he has been blessed by the spirits of my people~................She smiles, and goes to him, and places his hands in hers.............
