BOOK OF THE DEAD
Dominion/Initiate: Available for Dominion
Focus : In the Deep Pit there is a Realm of caverns containing the Book of the Dead. The Book is scribed in dried blood on the skin of different creatures now unidentifiable. To navigate this cavern system is near impossible but can be achieved with a guide. The Abyss occasionally erupts through these caverns but so far the book has laid untouched by these forces.
Initiation : Dressed in a complete shroud of black the initiate is led to the bone stand on which the huge tome rest. The initiate begins by opening the book releasing a maelstrom of decayed flesh into the winds that now circling the stand. Each page pulls forth the initiates soul letting its being intermingle with the Book. The turning of each page is a tremendous effort and no aid is offered or given. Finally the initiates body feels heavy and exhausted by the effort. The initiate no longer can grasp the edges of the page. If the initiate has survived to the Pages of Redemption then they have the power to call upon the spirits of those who have died reading the Book. Their will to live pushes the initiate forward as the initiates soul becomes imprinted within the writing of the book. At last the initiate can see the veil of death. Reaching into its cold embrace they release the souls that aided them and they fall forward into a dark and troubled sleep.
