Dark Binding

A Dark Binding ceremony is a ritual performed by a dark priestess; which binds two people as husband and wife and turns them evil.
==History==
In 2001, the priestess Dantalian worked with the warlock Zile to force Prue Halliwell into the ritual. Once Prue and Zile were wed, Prue became evil. As she was connected to her sisters through the Power of Three, Piper and Phoebe became evil as well. The effects of the ritual were reversed when Zile was vanquished, turning the sisters good again."Bride and Gloom"
==Verses==
A few verses mentioned by the Dark Priestess during a binding ceremony are:
:In the Beginning you were damned
:And through damnation you found freedom, power, and purpose
:As I unite you today
:I remind you of those gifts
:And in your union
:May these gifts increase
:So your powers may grow
:In the Service of Evil
:So be it.
==Notes==
*Handfasting can be considered a good counterpart to this ritual
*Dark Priests can perform a similar ritual known as a Dark Wedding.
