"Have the courage to follow your heart and intuition. They somehow already know what you truly want to become. Everything else is secondary."

Tonight would be the night. He finally prepared everything for the ritual in his basement.
He finished inscribing the sigil onto the floor and lit the candles around the circle.
To avoid any disruptions of the spell, he placed down his amulet, leaving him only loosely robed in a thin cloth.
He stepped into the center and a peculiar expression crossed his face since he knew this was the last moment to change his mind.
He took a deep breath, knelt down and started to recited the words of the incantation.
As the last word was spoken, he held his breath and after what felt like an eternity, a wave of power suddenly rushed away from him, blowing out the candles in the process.
He felt the presence - and he felt the changes. Looking up, he balled his hands and sighed "Finally!".
He knew: Soon his deepest dreams would come true. Soon he would finally belong.
