# The Blood Ritual You stand in the center of a circle of candles, holding a knife in your hand. You feel a surge of adrenaline as you prepare to perform the ritual. You have been studying blood magic for months, and you are ready to test your skills. You cut your palm with the knife, letting the blood drip onto the floor. You feel a sting of pain, but you ignore it. You focus on the blood, feeling its warmth and energy. You chant the words of the spell, drawing power from your blood. You feel a wave of heat wash over you, followed by a burst of light. You open your eyes and see a glowing orb of blood floating in front of you. You smile as you sense its power. You have created a blood sphere, a basic but useful tool for blood magic. You reach out to touch the sphere, feeling its pulse. You can manipulate it with your mind, shaping it into different forms. You can also use it to cast other spells, using your blood as a catalyst. You feel a rush of excitement as you explore the possibilities of your blood magic. You feel a connection to your blood, as if it is an extension of yourself. You feel alive and powerful. You also feel a slight dizziness, as you realize that you have lost some blood. You know that blood magic has a price, and that you have to be careful not to overdo it. You decide to end the ritual, and heal your wound. You dispel the blood sphere, letting it dissolve into nothing. You bandage your palm, feeling a bit weak but satisfied. You have completed your first blood ritual, and you have learned a lot. You look forward to your next experiment, eager to discover more secrets of blood magic.
