Nathan's busy enjoying what little comfort he can with Orthros, so thankfully, neither of them see that.
Kirlia's concentration is interrupted, however. Â He gives Ventus a VERY annoyed look that almost says 'REALLY?! Â You're going to do this NOW?!'
Hmph. Â Back to trying to concentrate he goes.

Ventus, not one to care about Kirlia's opinions when it concerns Nathan's pet monster captured straight from the nightmares, ignored the young psychic almost entirely, besides giving them the lingering feeling/thoughts of: 'If Nathan didn't want this to happen, he could have easily prevented it. He didn't, so I am under no obligations to change my behavior. They know my and Shiva's opinon of Orthros, so the negative reaction
its recieving is
his fault, not ours.'

Not even Ventus received more than a glance from Shiva as she noticed someone approaching her, speaking the same 'Thank you for coming tonight.'
...That was, until she gave him another glance, this one held on him a little longer to see that he brought that Shamisen of his! Lilith was present as well, yay! Both lured her to a brief smile that she kept as she continued to stare into the flames of the bonfire. Such pretty embers there... Ven speaking and directly adressing her caused to coyly wince - feels like someone has suprisingly put a hand into the streaming-down river depicting her mind. Shiva needed a moment to actually progress what he said, faintly nuzzling her psychic cat during the process. Very slowly, she turned to face him from the side. When she spoke, her voice was lower, but not 'weak'. It had an almost dignified tone. Lilith received a low bow from her, showing her respect to the birdpent being there as well. "I am thankful that you too have come, soaring serpent." As for Ven... "Progress... Cottonwood tree... Such peace and calmness, pure nature. It'll rain, something is coming. Found Elders agreeing to play flute to my summoning...where are they...?"
As you're finished talking, a lone Mamo approaches. The flute is wrapped tightly in an oilskin cloth.
"I am ready, if you are sure you want to attempt this. The optimal time approaches, when the clouds are carried on a bank of wind and the heat rises in the north."

Not needing his empathy to notice how intensely focused/distracted by the upcoming ritual, Ventus gave her a respectful nod of his head while patting Lilith's affectionately, and said: "Lilith will provide her blessing for this ritual like promised, and I will be ready to add my Shamisen tunes to the weave of music this gathering will create. I'll leave you to your preparation now, dear, and I wish the best will come from them."
He then departed from his mystical friend company, quietly whispering to Lilith: "My sister,
if you could please provide your blessing to this summoning ritual, I'll make sure you are well reward with all the sweets and Honey you can stomach. What do you say to that arrangement?"
Order: Get Ven ready to start playing his Shamisen, while also bribing Lilith to provide her own blessing to the ritual with lots of sweets and Honey. Let's hope this works....!
Lilith nods and launches herself to the top of the woodshed. From there she looks out over the burgeoning preparations, ready to add her own voice and elegance to the ritual song.
Oh, Shiva has been waiting for just this. She could almost feel that faint wind blowing, carrying the small particles from the fire northward. 'She' was watching. Or was it just sensation and imaginary?
Whether it was or not, it also blew away remains of nervousness. She got up from her place by the bonfire, and raised her gaze to the Mamo who approached. Her voice was still low, but not for long anymore. "...I am ready, and I know what I am doing. Yes, I do. I've worked towards tonight... Please bring up the tune of the flute. Let me hear it. Everyone, LET ME HEAR IT!" *graceful sweeping-gesture with arms* "LET 'HER' HEAR US TONIGHT, AND EVENTUALLY BLESS ME WITH 'HER' APPEARANCE!"
