Ostara Ritual

Everyone had gathered in a beautiful clearing in the garden, illuminated by fairy lights. Soft drinks, mainly wine with herbs were held by the guests, supplied by several discreet waiters, dressed in flowy robes in grey colours. Several benches made from driftwood were positioned around the clearing and people were chatting softly in wait for the ceremony. Sebastian was observing the gathering with appreciation and surprise. All of this has been organized in just a day? he thought with wonder.

There were Margaret's friends from her magical circle, relatives who had come to help as much as they could, and strangers who had responded to the call for help they had made to the village. And it turned out to be very cute and interesting.

Everyone turned as if on command when Margareth entered the room wearing a white robe, commanding attention.
