Explanation
Evoke — to summon — is justified by the text. Convoke — to call a meeting to order — is not quite appropriate (maybe if there were multiple spirits — also a problem with coalesced). Elicit also has the wrong spin; it is more frequently used in the sense of eliciting information or opinions.

If the participants of two minds and everyone felt "the presence of something new", shouldn't the first blank denote something opposite of actually calling out a spirit BECAUSE the participants were of two minds?
