Ritual of Sacred Binding

The Ritual of Sacred Binding is an esoteric ritual of dubious origin used by the Clerics of Northshire to bind the living soul of their leader or leaders, usuallly the Abbot of Northshire, in order that the Northshire Abbey cannot fall so long as the soul is embodied.

Rubric
Though the exact rubric of the ritual is obscure and hidden away from the public eye for fear of the rituals being misunderstood (or perhaps the suspicious origins uncovered), it is known within the echelons of the Clerics of Northshire that the ritual calls for ten holy priests positioned at the vertices in the Main Hall to evoke the spirits of the blessed dead. The ritual durings its progression forms a decagram of unknown energy around the Abbot-elect.
