Who: Rean, Crow, and Randy
When: day 28
Where: the garden

[Rean's been passed out since princess maker, so a good 40 hours at least. When he wakes up... well he's immortal but here's never been in a position where there's no ambient mana he can use to even function basically. He feels fuzzy and almost like he's sick for over an hour, and he runs into more than one wall and that's all so absolutely unreal to him he finally texts Randy and Crow a simple word Garden. It takes him three tries to spell it right before hitting send.

And he'll be there next to a chalk circle full of symbols.]

[He doesn't have the mana left to make a contract himself, but he can channel Randy's.

He kneels in the center of the circle, lifting his hand to take Randy's. As his hand makes contact with Randy's the circle glows, Rean's voice taking on an otherworldly tone.]

Dost thou desire power?

[he drops the smile, taking this seriously.]

I do.

[The circle glows brighter and Rean's eyes also glow, bright and red.]

Call my name.

[he has a moment of panic where he's not sure whether he should call Valimar, or--

no, it doesn't matter. Rean is Rean.]

Rean!

[Good call Randy! Not that Rean is not also the Ashen Knight.

It's actually a very... Simple ceremony all told, really. For improvisation Rean figured it was best to try to keep simple and close as possible to how it should have gone.

And it works. Randy's cut heals and the circle becomes blinding, robbing Randy of sight for a few moments. The magic... Snaps right in place. Randy's soul and Rean's tied together in a pact bound by will and magic and a drop of blood.

There might not be any immediate effects that are noticeable, no suddenly feeling a connection to Rean or hearing his thoughts, not yet. But there is a shift, a pull of power, a wave of vertigo as Randy's mana is, somewhat, depleted, to supply Rean with enough to at least exist.

The dizziness will pass, as will the blinding light, though whether Randy makes it through still conscious is another matter.]

[Randy isn't exactly known for his Arts, so his mana isn't exactly... a deep well to draw from. He nearly passes out. But, being himself, he's still standing, just deathly still, determined not to fall.]
