Clara simply nodded keeping an almost uncomfortably tight grip on Alexander's hand. Her heart was thumping hard within her chest and a swirl of excitement raged through her mind. With her and Alexander's auras linked, she could hear a rhythmic hum, like a mantra of concentration in the back of her mind, but that was the least of her concerns right know. Alexander's aura flowed through her like a powerful waves of water, but also prickled with quick shots of energy. This alone was very dangerous. There was a new and terrifyingly strong power being shared with her. It was exotic and quick to react. Clara had to guide him by the hand while keeping herself somewhat composed in order to control her abilities. Her gaze went to the teacup left resting on the table. Why she looked at it was anyone's guess, but she quickly saw that this act was a mistake. Allowing her eyes to focus on something for too long wasn't a good idea. There was a low hum and it shattered within an instant. Too much energy ran through her at the moment.
They stepped out of the tent and she managed to keep her eyes down at the ground. Though she was still excited, she ran her own mantra through her mind in order to keep herself together enough to reach the barrier and cast her spell. Oddly enough, the mantra was more like a nursery rhyme or a old folk tale. It was recited often by the women who lived near the northern wilds.
There once was a bear as old as old
For many many stories were told
The beast had great eyes of gold
It waited for a hero bold
The years had past one by one
and no such hero ever come
pass on the song to young an old
for fear of the bear with eyes of gold
The melody seemed to keep her focused while they walked among the dirt paths and bits of brush to get to the barrier. She only looked up to see the great mass of blue that hummed intimidatingly. Taking a deep breath, she decided to start her spell. Clara straightened up and stepped them both closer to the barrier. They were so close that bits of energy arced between them and the barrier. It was like the dome was greedily waiting for them to get too close in order for it to engulf them. With her free hand held high, she breathed some words low and under her breath. The volume of her voice wasn't what gave the spell it's strength but rather the determination and concentration of the caster. Her giddy excitement seemed to disappear while she did this. The air around their skin felt stuffy for a moment, then her free hand clinched tightly into a fist. The spell was to give them flesh as stone, but the combined energy of their auras made the material stronger and bright like crystal. Their shimmery exterior also glowed with energy. "Go!" She spoke pulling them both into the face of the barrier. The dome let out a loud crack then a loud but low sounding hum.
