If your powers were released at close range, they could endanger the ceremony.

I'll stop this crazy ritual of yours!

Through trials, you will mature even further. It is merely a rite of passage.

Three days remain until the selection begins.

All right, I'll do it. But this ritual you wanna perform - what's that about?

Wait until the ceremony is over, then we'll talk.

The nearest modern incarnation of it is the strange rituals practiced by the Forsworn.

I'm just not up for it, sorry. I'd rather stay here, have a glass of wine, and perform my rites to Arkay in peace.

Their spirits wander 'midst the living… must be judged, sent on their way. This we do on Forefathers' Eve.

Need to find an egg, preferably an oriole's. Ritual itself isn't complicated, but like I said before, there'll be a side effect. Still sure you want to go through with it?

Please. I must remain uninterrupted if I am to complete the ritual. Have no fear, your time will come.

When another person shows interest, and the two agree to be together, one of them comes to the Temple and we arrange a ceremony.
