Story

Mat present at the Blood Moon Ritual.
The Blood Moon Ritual was first alluded to by Patrem during the YSHDT Arc on April 4th, 2015. In a conversation on the Within Hubris Forums, Patrem claimed that he would soon depart for a ritual that required a blood sacrifice for Luna. Though it was not known at the time, this was actually referring to the Blood Moon Ritual. At the time, the players believed that Doug was the one who was going to be sacrificed during the ritual. In an attempt to save him, the player Circlehunter submitted the video Jailbreak.wmv. Patrem later chided the players for this, however, claiming that Doug was never in any danger.
During the actual Blood Moon Ritual, several Lunar Children gathered at The Fishery in the evening. Mat oversaw the ritual and activated one of the cult's Listening Devices so that Patrem could begin communicating with those present. A new recruit in the cult began reading an excerpt from the Libro Lunarus. Once he finished, he questioned where the blood mentioned in the script would come from. Shortly afterwards, the new recruit was stabbed and killed by Mat. Around this point, Tenebris began communicating via the video recording of the event. Tenebris seemingly taunted Patrem and the Lunar Children before the video ended. Players did not see any of this event until June 5th, when blood-moon.avi was uploaded to the archives on Lunarchildren.com. The full video was later posted on Lunarchildren.com on June 17th by Liquidsaint.
Process
The Blood Moon Ritual takes place outside, seemingly at The Fishery so that a large amount of spiritual energy can be amassed. The ritual involves three indivudals:
- An overseer
- Patrem
- A sacrifice
The ritual begins with the overseer activating a Listening Device so that Patrem can begin communicating. Once communication has been established, the sacrifice begins reading the following excerpt from the Libro Lunarus:
After this, the sacrifice is then killed by the overseer, their blood spilled in Luna's honor.
