Not to mention, there aren’t many places in Eternium he can go to win a fight using only Novice rituals. Too bad for him, Joe's enemies haven't been idle in his absence. They’ve just been biding their time. The Ritualist’s return triggers a retaliation years in the making, but they’ve made one major mistake…
