Ritualistic purposes, huh? That actually made a lot of sense. It must have been really exciting for those people to be able to harness the same sort of power a dragon has and use it to not only honor the creature, but help protect themselves in the meantime.

"Aguamenti." She bent down a little to get level with the cauldron as she filled it, stopping when she was satisfied with the water level.
"Finite."
Not having any questions yet, the eighteen year old simply sat up straight and listened, ready for the next steps.
