Rayna The day ended fast, really fast. The lights were set, the decorations were up, everyone was getting dressed…the festival was finally here. I sat in front of my dress mirror,my heart pounding lightly in my chest. Goddess, I was so scared. I was excited just this morning, but now I was terrified. I was already in my dress. My hair flowed down my back and my face was lightly painted. Very lightly. Sven got dressed and left while I was in the bathroom and I had told him I didn't want anyone dressing me. I stared at my mirror, at the simple silver necklace with the tiny crescent moon as the pendant. Was I ready? I couldn't tell. But, would I back down? No. I stood up gently, grabbing the bottom on my gown so I could walk…even though I was only wearing fancy slippers. I turned the door knob and walked out the room and proceeded to the stairs. It was 7:55 pm and the house was quiet. Everyone was in their room and quarters as instructed by Sven until the time for the feast.
