Three days later…
"Is this really working?" Aries raised her head at Marsella, holding a straw doll and a needle that she used to prick the straw doll. A single hair was attached to the doll. On the table were lit candles with waxes melted around its bottom and a small magic circle Aries had drawn herself.
The day after Marsella's arrival, she started teaching Aries how witchcraft work. But alas, until now, Aries was not sure if she had any progress at all. How could she? She might've learned how to draw a magic circle, but that was all.
She had been prickling this straw doll, but she didn't even know what it was for. All she knew was that if she did, it would tickle the owner of the hair that was attached to it.
Marsella rested her jaw against her knuckles, her expression lazy. She batted her eyes slowly at Aries, sitting across from the latter on this round table in the greenhouse.
