Since she already had all that she needed, Phoebe started with sage, burning some to cleanse the air. A physically clean area would have been the best choice but there was no option, childbirth was not exactly a clean activity.
After that, she started drawing a circle by placing stones from the space on the ground around the bed. To reinforce it, she put in place an anchor talisman.
This was something she had created after the witnessing how close the stalker malicious ghost had come to blowing the salt away when she was helping its victim.
As a firm believer in most superstitions, Phoebe added a four leaf clover to the circle. If it could help with bringing luck to Eliza, that was a bonus.
"What are you doing?" Mr. Guzman asked.
"Building a protective circle." Phoebe answered.
She continued with her task, lighting candles that she placed around the perimeter.
"Candles!!" Eliza's sister squealed loudly. "What are you doing?"
