Not to give anyone ideas, but you'd normally leave the live portion towards the end of the preparations so they don't get any ideas.

[ The priorities of this cult are really funny. What are they doing for the next two months. ]

[sootprints]

... It depends on the ritual.

[recession]

I guess there's something to be said for the sheer audacity of permitting forty people to run around with weapons.

[ Fools, or very confident in their ritual? ]

[sootprints]

Ah......

Yes, that part makes no sense to me.

[recession]

If we're lucky, it'll be a choice they regret making.

[ Not that we're going to kill them. We just want to fuck up their ritual a little bit, okay. ]

...

Begs the question of why a dog, but whatever.

[sootprints]

That... also makes very little sense.

Does the ritual need a dog? Would any animal sacrifice suffice, instead of using people? There should be some logic...

[recession]

He is a very smart dog... but it's undeniably a little ridiculous. Unless the ritual required a little spot of animal blood?

[ Sardonic. ]

No point in trying to figure out the ritual's rhyme and reason though. Our focus should be to escape.

[sootprints]

True... It would just be easier to predict the enemy's moves if I could understand anything about their methods.

Rest assured, escape is my greatest priority.

[recession]

Clearly, they enjoy the method and show of the ritual even if it's ineffective.

[ The robes, the flower crowns, the ridiculous fire and them all around it in a circle. A lot of work for what. ]

So maybe they'll be too busy preening and pruning the fine details while we work out some solutions.
