In the forbidding and mystical realm of Conan Exiles, the esoteric pursuit known as the “Ritual of the Arcane Dominion” is one that few dare undertake. This sacred and ominous rite serves to bolster the sorcerer’s connection to the eldritch energies that permeate the exiled lands, and it is a task that must be performed with both regularity and preciseness to ensure the sorcerer’s ascendancy in the arcane arts.
To begin the “Ritual of the Arcane Dominion,” a sorcerer must traverse the desolate and dangerous stretches of the land to hunt down those who dare to dabble in the mystical arts. The skulls of these fallen sorcerers are the requisite trophies, symbols of dominance, and vessels of concentrated power. Each skull, a repository of its former master’s knowledge and energy, must be collected with due reverence to their profound potency.
Once the skulls are gathered, the sorcerer must seek out a place of fiery destruction—a pit of roaring flames or a chasm spewing forth the molten blood of the earth itself, lava. It is here that the skulls must be cast into the conflagration as offerings to the ancient and inscrutable forces that govern arcane power in this harsh world. The act of consigning the skulls to fire or lava represents the transmutation of their accumulated wisdom into a form that can be absorbed by the fabric of sorcery itself, strengthening its practitioner.
Simultaneously, the sorcerer must be ever-vigilant for the elusive “Sorcerous Spell Pages,” fragile and ephemeral remnants of magical lore. These pages are scattered throughout the land, often safeguarded by malevolent entities or hidden in the most recondite locations. Once acquired, these pages are to be meticulously studied and then subjected to an eldritch process to extract the precious “Black Blood”—a substance of great significance and utility in sorcerous endeavours. Black Blood, with its profound connection to the dark veins of sorcery that run deep within the earth, can be used in rituals and conjurations, often serving as a catalyst to potentiate spells, strengthen enchantments, and enhance one’s mastery over the mystic arts.
The “Ritual of the Arcane Dominion” is thus both a trial and a testament to a sorcerer’s resolve, keen intellect, and undying pursuit of power. Perform it with diligence, for it is through such sacred rites that a sorcerer may rise above the limitations of the mundane and grasp the true essence of the arcane mysteries that await.
