All was in readiness. Faust waved his hands and chanted. A glimmer of rosy light appeared in the middle
of the pentagram, a fiery dot at first, then it expanded.

"Oh, you did it!" Marguerite cried.

Turning to the growing light, Faust said, "O spirit from the darkest deep, I conjure you in the name of
Asmodeus, of Beelzebub, of BelialтАФ"

A voice came from the glowing light. It was a young woman's voice, and it said matter-of-factly, "Please
stop conjuring. I am not a conjurable spirit."

"You're not?" Faust asked. "Then who or what are you?"

"I am a representative of the Infernal Communication Service. We cannot accept your conjuration in its
present form. Please check your spell and if you think you have it wrong, please conjure again. Thank
you. Have a nice day." The voice stopped and the rosy light dwindled and disappearedтАж
