Grave dirt, blood from the Widow's Tear, a crystal bathed in light passed through the Sacred Lens of Atlantis, an incantation said while holding the Key...
Riario did as the faded parchment said, prepared a feast, sent out the invitation.

"He fell for it," Zo howled. "I can't believe he fell for it. Sacred Lens my ass. He's spent all day working on his little ritual."
"I was using that lens," Leo said pointedly. "I wish you'd chosen something else for your experiment that he needed to steal."
"I did a good job on the paper, didn't I?" Nico was eager not to be left out. "It looked old and the ink was perfect."
"Yes, Nico," Leo said. "Now tell me again what the 'spell' you two idiots made sure Riario acquired was for again?"
"To defeat your enemies," Zo said.
"Which explains why I've been invited to the feast peppered with grave dirt," Leo said, brandishing a parchment with Riario's elegant signature at the bottom.
Nico paled.
"Not peppered," Zo said. "Mix all the ingredients, say the incantation, set it all on fire, roll two candles in the ashes, and light them at a feast. Nico, what's wrong?"
Nico shook his head. "That's not the spell I wrote. I know you suggested that but I was using lines from a spell in a book of supposed magic for authenticity - I know, maestro, you said I wasn't supposed to read those books but I thought they were, you know. Not about magic. About, about, sex."
Leo rolled his eyes. "I don't care if you know about sex, Nico. But those books are mystical and even I wouldn't risk some of those incantations. So what did spell did you copy from the book?"
Nico bit at his lip. "For revealing and charming your true love."
Leo looked at him blankly.
"Fuck," Zo said. "He's messing with us, right? Riario knows it was us and he's messing with us, because otherwise...he surely can't think...Leo, say something."
"Maybe I will go to dinner," Leo said distantly.
Andrea bustled into the workshop, whistling cheerfully. He handed Zo a parchment. "For you, dear boy." He was the only person who could get away with addressing Zo as such.
Zo tore the seal open and looked queasy.
"Zo?" Nico asked.
"Dinner," Zo choked out. "Riario wants me at his dinner party too. He's messing with us, right?"
Leo shrugged. "Why don't you come to dinner and find out?"
Nico pouted, upset not to get an invite, Zo was still reeling and desperate to believe they'd been rumbled, and Leo - well, Leo was planning on what to wear.
