Seance... Say Twice (Closed)

Who: Mercy Graves, Yelena Belova, Katrina
When: September 30th, into October 1st, the witching hours
Where: A graveyard in Gloucester
Summary: The gang does a seance... and suffers the consequences for it.
Warnings: rituals, ghosts, mild grave desecration

A graveyard in the middle of night is, undoubtedly, the best place to summon a ghost. So say the resources Mercy's been able to find on the internet. Yelena has been a part of this since the idea's inception, so she's along. Katrina is newly returned to Gloucester and someone that Mercy trusts, even months on from her perspective. The siren also has healing abilities if things get into a very tight spot. Which is something Mercy thinks Yelena might not approve of, but could be vitally necessary, depending on just how unhappy the spirits they summon are.

She leads the other women by torchlight through the graveyard. It's not one of the well-mainted ones; rather, it's an old, rundown thing on the outskirts of Gloucester, nearly bordering on Dogtown. She's already found and cleaned the grave of the oldest death in the place that she could find, and it's there that she stops.

"All right. I brought candles and some holders. We're gonna needs to set up a circle with them." She pulls them out of her bag and offers them to Yelena and Katrina. "Think you can help me light these and stick 'em in the ground?"

This has to work. She needs... some sort of win. After the terror of the tiny town, they need to find answers. They can't keep going like this.

Katrina nods as she takes the candles. In her world, the dead live on in the Spirit Realm. Surely the dead here have someplace that's similar.

"I start here," she says as she goes and places her first candle. From her jacket pocket she pulls a lighter and easily lights the candle. "This place should not be abandon. What we do for this grave, humans should do for others."
