	When performing this ritual, a coven often invokes symbols of binding, stagnation and hesitation. Some magicians weave invocations of doubt and uncertainty, while others evoke forces of capture or law enforcement. Skirling pipe-music may often be involved, as might interweaving flutes. Sinuous dances are common, but so are things that bind - chains, threads, ropes, nets and even ribbons.

	Other common elements in this ritual might include runes, especially [[Hirmok]]. Beasts such as spiders and great serpents that crush their prey may be mentioned, and some Freeborn use images of octopi, squid or even [[Mundane beasts#Kraken\|kraken]] in their magic. The constellation of [[The Chain]] is sometimes invoked, as are the names of the Autumn Eternals ~~know~~ as the [[Lictors]].
