Middle Mere

A body of still water at the dig site, central to the ritual Warmsly demands Bambera perform. Its surface ripples when the sword is cast into its depths, revealing the immediate future to those who watch its surface. The mere’s narrow banks force Bambera and her team to lean dangerously over its edge to comply, amplifying the ritual’s precarious urgency.

Before: A quiet body of water on the periphery of the excavation, its surface unbroken by movement.
After: Transformed into a scrying mirror of supernatural significance, charged with latent power by the ritual command.
