Page 5: Awakening Acathla

This ritual is used to awaken the demon Acathla. With one breath, Acathla will create a vortex, a whirlpool that will suck to world and all non-demon life in it into hell. The words of the ritual are recited, someone worthy spreads their own blood on their hand, and then pulls the sword out of the demon. The demon wakes up, and wackiness ensues.
This ritual was first attempted by Angelus in "Becoming Part 1", however, it failed because of the fact that the blood on his hands was not his own. The second time the ritual was attempted, the blood was his own, and it was successful. Since the words used in "Becoming Part 1" differ from those used in "Becoming Part 2", both variations will be listed. here they are.

Variation 1

*as seen in "Becoming Part 1"*

Angelus: I will drink... the blood will wash in me, over me, and I will be cleansed. I will be worthy to free Acathla. Bear witness... as I ascend... as I become. Everything that I am, everything that I have done, has led me here. I have strayed, I have been lost. But Acathla redeems me. With this act, we will be free.

Variation 2

*as seen in "Becoming Part 2"*

Angelus: Acathla... Mundatus sum... pro te necavi. Sanguinem meum... pro te effundam... quo me dignum... esse demonstrem.

English Translation

Acathla... I am cleansed... here before you. My blood... flowing before you... makes me worthy... as I demonstrate.

Angelus: Now Acathla....you will be free. And so will we all.
*pulls sword out*

Don't try this at home! :)
