 The "Actions" may be any number of things, such as planting a specific crop, performing an emote, or releasing a beetle.  The Sacrifices should not be too difficult as far as required attributes go.  Complex items that are needed could be wine, beer, raeli tiles, paint, moss, fish scales, treated wood, treated metal, flower petals, etc.  The developer obviously has discretion here (although, I would like to see fish scales put to some sort of use).
 This test has a cooperative element as well as a competitive one since players must share with one another to finish a message but only the first seven partners to complete the ritual receive credit each Egyptian month.  You do NOT need to complete the rituals with the same partner each time; you only need to participate in five different successful rituals yourself to pass.

 	“Sobek, God of Nile products and fertility, awaits appeasement at the common altar located in 	Alcyone: 1683, 2299.  To please Sobek, the first priest must plant a bed of flax while the second 	priest waters and harvests the flax bed.  Then, the first priest must recite the prayer 'Bless us 	with the bounty of the land' and the second priest must then recite the prayer 'Guide us to your 	revealed wisdom'. Finally at the altar, the first priest must sacrifice a Lime Green fish scale and 	the second priest must then sacrifice a Dodger Blue fish scale.”
-Note that while the fragments players receive are randomly given, the ritual is always performed in the same order from message to message (Find the altar, Actions, Prayers, Sacrifices).  The specific altar, actions, prayers, and complex item sacrifices change from week to week but the order of the ritual as noted above remains constant (also, the complex items will always be of the same type.  In the example above, fish scales were the item type, but the two scales were different colors.  A different message on a different week might require for example two moss, each with a different required attribute.)
