Walker was intensely focused on the dance of the priestess and the full water spirit that he didn't notice the moon rising higher and higher in the sky. No one else had moved at all for the same reason. Even Gil had returned t stillness as the light elemental mana left him and the quiver behind.
When the moon reached the peak in the night sky the priestess stopped her dance and clasped her hands tightly together. Her eyes glowed with the light elemental mana and the fog on the ground rose in pillars around them.
Walker could clearly see the priestess's mouth moving at a rapid pace, but not a sound was heard. This was the silent chanting skill he had been told about. The proof was in the dancing light elemental mana now being focusing on to the pedestal and encompassing the potions.
