	The ritual sends a message to the wicked eternal [[Agramant]], but the malevolent eternal is under no obligation to respond. They do, however, know exactly who performed it and this fact alone might give wise magicians pause. Obviously, while Agramant is subject to the [[Amity and enmity#enmity\|enmity]] of the [[~~Imperial~~ Conclave]] it is illegal to perform the ritual - although it is ''not'' illegal to master the ritual (nor to possess a [[ritual text]] containing the named ritual although that is irrelevant in this case as ritual texts cannot be created from Urizen lore).

	Performing the ritual requires the magicians to injure themselves with an edged weapon, and use the blood that flows from the wound to write their missive. The ritual must contain at least three of the names of the eternal. Given that it cannot be more than thirty-one words long anyone performing it is likely to favour one-word names - which the ritual text is at pains to point out includes ''Blood-on-the-Snow''. The ritual is completed by marking the rear of the message with a handprint made using the contributors' blood. Magical scholars who have cautiously examined the ritual in the weeks since the Autumn Equinox are of the opinion that the relative complexity of the ritual is - to quote ''Diogenes the Frugal'' - "''probably an indication that Agramant is messing with the magicians who want to talk to him''." The requirement to coat one's hand in blood in particular makes performing the ritual secretly more difficult - Diogenes the Frugal comments that this seems almost intended to foster suspicion among Urizen magicians because it implies that "''anyone with blood under their fingernails might be a secret correspondent of the Wastewalker''."

	The most important elements of the ritual are the blood of the one performing it, and the need to put a bloody handprint on the reverse of the parchment. It's notable that the ritual requires the blood of the casters - it will not work with blood taken from anyone else even if they are willing. It already involves principles of [[~~Totem_magic~~#Goetia\|goetia]] in that it requires an invocation of [[Agramant]] - albeit in written form. The ritual text suggests that the casters may wish to be veiled, cowled, or masked when they perform the ritual especially if they wish to try and conceal their identity from the eternal. Unfortunately, however, the [[blood magic]] intrinsic to the performance means that Agramant cannot fail to know who sent the message - while the face can be hidden blood cannot be masked.
