After that, Malakor headed over to Father Silas, the old priest. He slowly handed over a glass bowl filled with something that looked like golden sap, which Soren had seen when they'd given him Mordessa's Mother Tree sap bottle.
Father Silas took the glass bowl and put it right on the little table in front of him. After handing it over, Malakor takes a few steps back and then goes over to the Mother Tree with the other five alchemists.
They circled the tree, placed their palms on it and started reciting a spell. Soren watched the whole thing go down from behind the veil that covered his face. A few others started pulling out a little book-like a bible and singing a song Soren didn't know.
Father Silas took Soren's hand, as if he could see what was in front of him, and then pulled Lucian's hand and placed them together. The man's hands opened, welcoming Soren and Lucian's hands to rest one on top of the other.
