| “ | My children believe I'm holding this ball to celebrate our reunion. But in truth I've gathered them together to perform a ritual. | ” |
The Mikaelson's Ball was an event that was orchestrated by Esther Mikaelson and hosted at Klaus' renovated mansion. It was a glamorous evening of dancing, cocktails, and celebration so that Esther could bring together her children and link them together with Elena's doppelgänger blood.
Throughout The Vampire Diaries Series=[]
Season Three[]
In Dangerous Liaisons, Esther sent out invitations to ranking officials and locals of Mystic Falls, such as Mayor Carol Lockwood and Elena Gilbert. Once the festivities began at seven o'clock, Elijah instructed the attendees that the ballroom dance would be the centuries old pick of a Waltz.
When the dancing concluded Elena had Stefan help her to speak to Esther, alone, by breaking Damon's neck. Once he was taken out of the picture, Elena met with Esther privately and learned her true motive. Using Elena's blood, Esther would link her children together with the champagne toast. By completing the ritual with all of them linked together, if one dies, then so too would the others.
