Bleed Pair: The Hollow Pilgrimage & Voidheart Sanctum
Ritual crossing
Concept · Both verses
The slowest Bleed crossing, and the only one that requires the crosser's willing consent.
The Hollow Pilgrimage (FateBreak) is a path of seven empty temples. Each temple is a step closer to the other layer. Only monks who have studied the Bleed for years walk all seven whole.
Voidheart Sanctum (Wheel of Ruin) is a temple built around a tear in reality. Its monks have learned to hold the tear open, deliberately, for minutes at a time.
A pilgrim who starts the Pilgrimage and a monk who opens the Sanctum, in the same moment, will meet in the middle. No one is entirely sure where the middle is.
