Under the moonlight the struggle of feathers breaks the cricket's chorus. Circe's mark etched into ground underfoot, a bound pigeon laying atop it. A young witch unsheathes her athame, it's silver blade reflecting the moon rays in the poor pigeon's eye. As the blade comes down with a sickening squelch, the pigeons' death throes echo throughout the woods, followed quickly by muttered incantations, the witch turns the blade on herself, allowing it to pierce her flesh, blood dripping on the fresh carcass below. The blade glows faintly, pulsing with an ethereal indigo glow as the pigeon's carcass begins to undergo a transformation, the blood mixing and rising into the air before shooting back into the lifeless body as it begins to twitch and turn violently, it's feathers and beak becoming an distinct ebony as it rises, it's newly feathered head looks at the young witch, giving her squawk and a bow. The witch smiles in delight.
