We all were in a room one of our friends had painted. It was the bedroom. It consisted of trees, a pond, and three logs put around the pond, like a triangle.

We all sat down on the logs, taking a fake Lily-pad to our hands. We put them together and closed our eyes.

“May a River, somewhere nice, make a goddess so suffice, to change the tides and the iodines to make a sea of green.”

We opened our eyes, taking our Lily-pads into our palms and putting them onto the pond.

“Elicit Amina.”

We stood up, and walked out of the room.

“Do you think we could actually summon something?” I ask.

“You always ask that, of course not!”

The week after, we did it again, the next week, again.

By the fifteenth week, we were still trying to do the pattern, but we did it at night.

By the twenty first week, we didn’t know what would happen.

“Elicit Amina.”

A soft glow came from the pond, we looked at each other, confused.

The glow lit up the roof and everything that was in that pond, the soft glow dissipated and a women was standing before us.

She had wavy light purple hair, her skin was a light blue, her eyes were light green. She had a simple dress on consisting of the tides and grass. A soft black and purple cloud was holding her.

“I have been called from the tides to you.”

All of our jaws dropped open. Were we in a dream?

“Miss…”

“Oh, you don’t have to call me miss… I should be the one calling you Miss, Miss Camille.”

“I… bless us with your understanding!”

“I’ll give you the power to shift the tides and give a sea of green. I do not have any power to restrict your abilities.”

We all looked at each other again.

“Camille, you go first.”

I timidly walked up to Amina, looking at her eyes. Her hand was out. I took it and felt something click.

When I looked back at them, they all had a blue ring on their pinky finger, I looked back at my hand, I had a blue bracelet.

“You will control the tides.”

“Thank you, Amina.”

She disappeared with a shower of water.

“…alright.”

We all walked out of the room.
