Card Lore Timeline

389 AC - Conjuring Seal of Hecate with Afanas

Afanas called upon Hecate calling upon destroyer of Veil. Ilinka helped maintain Conjuring Seal. It took form of Strophalos of Triple Goddess of Witchcraft half in world and half in Empyrean.

Because of dual nature materialized and faded away spinning like erratic mobile. They could not loosen grip. Would hate to create second Confluence.

Seal provided crack through which Afanas could pull out ideas needed from world of imagination. With jaw clenched Afanas plunged hand into center while Ilinka maintained structure. Around hand shattered concentric circles rotated chaotically like locks opening and closing.

Fissure between worlds expanded and contracted again and again. It was delicate balance. Too much force would sever arm. Not enough risked creating Tumult Singularity.

When Afanas felt ones looking for had taken bait removed arm which had been infected by multitude of parasitic ideas. Started to strip them from essence like peeling orange keeping only those needed.

Afanas signaled to Ilinka and together closed Seal of Hecate. Seal operation required perfect coordination between both operators to safely terminate conjuring without causing reality breach.
