How to perform the ritual & preferences

THE SUMMONER’S FIELD GUIDE

Follow the light.
Open the veil.

One signal. A few careful seals. Something extraordinary on the other side.

01 / CALL
Invite a presence.
During the current daily window, choose Begin summoning. Your one available turn reserves a discovery before the ritual begins. Start before this window closes; missed invitations do not carry over.
Need to leave? Return and choose Resume reserved ritual to continue the same discovery.
02 / ALIGN
Catch the light in the seal.
Follow the mint-colored moving light around the ring. The violet outlined circle is your target. Tap as the light reaches its center.
Tap anywhere on the ritual ring or use the Stop signal button. On desktop, press Space; with the ring focused, Enter also works.
The light speeds up and slows down. Let it circle again if you need to—there is no rush. After “Seal received,” wait for the next moving light, then make one fresh tap. Complete 3–5 seals to open the veil.
03 / DISCOVER
Meet what answered.
Finish the last seal and watch your discovery emerge. Your verified specimen is saved to your account and waits in the Specimen vault.
Timing shapes the score inside your drawn rarity. Every ritual draws rarity independently; perfect timing does not change its odds.

Prefer a still signal?

Enable Low-movement timing before you begin. A stationary mint light replaces the moving dot. Stop it at its brightest moment. The timing window, score rules and rarity odds stay the same.

Sound Reduced motion Low-movement timing

A stationary light brightens at alignment. Press at peak brightness. Both modes use the same timing window and scoring; rarity odds remain the same.

Rarity odds & scoring

Each ritual draws independently. Timing influences score within its rarity band; it cannot increase rarity. Timing is browser-reported and is not a competitive leaderboard measure.

Verified discoveries belong to your account. Shared specimen codes cannot grant ownership.
