Dyra stepped out into the water, needing to relax for just a few minutes before she did what she had to for the upcoming battle. She didn't want to force her gift, or her spirit, but if she was going to use it to take peoples lives, she needed to find a center. Not her true center, because that seemed to be lost, but any center...that wouldn't let her spirit shatter when she was in the middle of the battle. Letting the water slide over her body, and cool it, she swam out until the bank fell away, and the starlight was the only thing she could see, and then dove...striving for the depths and peace that water always brought her.
Surfacing, she idled in the water for a bit, and then swam back to the bank, slipping her cloak over her chilled shoulders and changing clothes underneath it. Walking into the woods near the lake, she found a clearing that felt...peaceful, and settled in to begin the ritual...
