The room pulsed with Arcane energy.
Every inch of the floor was covered in their complex, glowing array of symbols, lines, and circles, the summoning circle itself seemed like the personification of immense power.
At the very center, bathed in the array's ethereal light, Anna was standing with her body covered in three halo-like rings.
Her eyes were shut, hands pressed together in prayer, a serene focus etched on her face. Just looking at her was enough for one to know how there was not even an ounce of hesitation in her right now.
She was completely focused, she was not in the Zone right now, but it was nothing less than a calm state that wasn't easy to achieve. At her age at least, it wasn't something one could achieve without going through life-and-death situations.
[ *She's doing well.* ]
She was the anchor, the conduit through which the entity they were summoning would manifest in this world.
