WORSHIP INIT

Opening Ceremony

The opening ceremony takes place at a common altar, and involves the following steps: 1. Aspirant #1 places a small diamond on the right pillar. 2. Aspirant #2 places a piece of twine on the left pillar. 3. Aspirant #1 meditates on the altar.

Horus

Bow down to his lordship (using the "bless" emote), then recite, Praise Horus, King of Egypt! You do not need to find a statue of Horus, just do the bless emote anywhere you want and it will count. I suggest doing it right at the altar.

Thoth

Learn a new skill or tech from a school or university, then recite, Praise Thoth, the Magician who created Science! This is probably the hardest god for older players to please! Make sure you have enough resources to learn a skill if you are going to learn from a school. Learning another level on a multilevel skill (like Project Management) counts. Learning a tech from another player does not.

Amun

Eat a grilled fish, then recite, Praise Amun, who gives us reason to celebrate!

Isis

Plant flax, then recite, Praise Isis, whose seed is forever fertile! You do not need to wait for the flax to grow. Once the seed goes into the ground, the goddess is pleased.

Bastet

Drop a deben of camel milk on the ground, in a grassy area at the edge of a body of water, then recite, Praise Bastet, who teaches grace and elegance! The entire body of water does not need to be surrounded by grass, only the part the milk sits on. Make sure the grass is touching the water.

Ra

Light a Ritual Torch deep in the desert, with sand as far as the eye can see. Then recite, Praise Ra, of the Blazing Eye!

Location is key here. Use the F6 camera zoomed all the way out. Spin it entirely around. If the only ground texture you can see is sand, the spot should be good. The torch takes 1 oil to light, and 1 board, 1 canvas, and Ritual Item Construction 1 to build. Once lit, it burns for about 15 minutes, then disappears.

Osiris

Give him the gift of a beetle by dropping it into a mine, then recite, Praise Osiris, who was Reborn like the Scarab! The gender, species, and ownership of the beetle don't matter. Drop whichever type you have most of, or acquire one from an experienced player who will have hundreds to spare from beetle breeding. The option to drop a beetle appears on all mine menus once you complete the opening ceremony, even mines that you don't own and don't have permission to work

Closing
