Cave of Odiel, the aspect of the seven personages that were present was glum and sinister: the
Abbot of Clairvaux, the Great Master of the Temple, and the two Templar Preceptors, were
involved in a taciturn funereal air; their stillness was such absolute that they would have passed
as stone statues, if it were not due to the malignat brightness of their eyes revelaed latent life.
But who would really infuse terror in any unwarned person that would have the
opportunity to witness the scene, were the Immortals Bera and Birsha: they were dressed with
linen tunics, now hideously stained with the blood of the Noyo, and they were wearing pectorals
of gold studded in twelve rows of stones of different sort; but what would impress the witness
would not be the clothings but the fiery of their faces, the hate that sprouted from them and
which was propagated in the environmet as a mortal radiation; but it musn't has to be thought
that the hate contracted or twitched the faces of the Immortals: on the contrary, hate was
natural in them; it could not be distiguished in the countenances of Bera and Birsha a single
gesture that would indicate by itself the tremendous and inestinguishable hate that they felt
for the Uncreated Spirit, and to all what oppossed to the plans of The One, due to their own
were, entire, complete in their expression the Countenaces of Hate. A hate that now would
charge their sacrificial victims, the offering that Jehovah Satan was claiming.
The Ritual, if it is judged by the acts of Bera and Birsha, was rather simple; but if are
considered the catastrophic effects produced in the House of Tharsis, it would be necessary to
agree that such acts were the end of deep and complex causes, the unknown manifestation of
«Ruge de Guiepo». In this way was developed the Ritual: while Bera was sustaining the Dorché
with the left hand, and the arm outstretched to the level of the eyes, Birsha lifted the head of
the Noyo taking a handful of hair with the right hand and placing a silver knife on his ear with
the left one; disposed in this way the scene of the ritual, the head of Godo de Tharsis was
suspended some few centimetres from the water mirror; then, a simultaneos action, evidently
prearranged, Bera pronounced a word and Birsha beheaded the Noyo with one skilful slew in
the throat; really, the extreme of the knife had been supported in the left ear of the Noyo and,
when Bera pronounced the word, he uttered a perfect curve that sectioned the throat and
concluded in the right ear: literally, the Noyo was beheaded «from ear to ear»; the blood
gushed and then it fell mixing with the water while Bera continued reciting other words
without moving the Dorché; little by little occurred the first miracle: the water, that was barely
staining with the blood, started to become red and to spread out until the whole lake seemed to
be an immense clot; in that moment, a reddish luminosity was emerged from the water in form
of steam, an intense resplendence, similar to the one that an incandescent oven would emit;
when all the water was converted in blood, that's to say, when not a single gout fell anymore
from the exsanguine corpse of Godo de Tharsis, Bera put down the Dorché and signalized to the
lake while he released a lurid scream: then the colour of the lake turned from red to black and
its sustance was transformed in a kind of pitch or dark tar; and there conlcuded the Ritual. It
must be added that such substance, similar to the pitch, was nothing else than an organic
synthesis of a human corpse, as it would be obtained after a geologic period of evolution of
millions of years, but accelerated to an instant with the wonderful Power of the Dorché. Such
black pitch was, then, the essence of the physical death, the last extreme of what has been the
life and which is potentially written in the message of the blood.
But the blood is unique of each Lineage. Due to this the consequence seeked by the black
magic of the Immortals consisted in the propagation of that transmutation to the rest
