Document Summary
While attempting to create a ritual, i thought of all the occasions in which a ritual is performed. Most of the rituals i am aware of are performed to summon a positive occurrence. For example, the rituals performed by the hunters and gathers were miming rituals that ensured them that their hunt would be a success. Using rituals like this as inspiration, i created a ritual that i named the conflagration ritual. Although it sounds similar to other rituals incorporating fire, the one i have created serves a completely different purpose. The purpose of doing the conflagration ritual is to rid extensive fires that tend to cause a great amount of damage to both land and property. It can take place anywhere that wildfires occur, such california, australia or the western cape of south africa, however, it can be done where ever is needed. As for timing, the ritual should take place when the news of a wildfire occurring arises.
