The ritual of Spirit Speak will call the spirit of a deceased to the caster's location to speak with those present in Ultima IX.

Description[edit]

Speaking with the soul of one who's already deceased needs special preparation when the soul of the dead has already moved on, making the Seance spell useless. To do so, the ashes of the deceased merely have to be placed on top of one of the Shrines of Virtue.

Taught by Myrea in Trinsic.

Lore[edit]

The Spirit Speak ritual allows the, caster to commune with the spirits of the dead. The spirits of them who died in peace are carried to another plane that has no connection with ours. Spirit Speak bridges the planes and calls forth the spirit held in the mind's eye of the caster. The ritual is not suitable for communing with the undead, whose spirits remain bound against their wills to our plane.
– from Spellbook (Ultima IX)

Trivia[edit]

  • When repairing the shrine without removing the urn from it, it becomes stuck in the shrine, fusing with it.
  • This ritual is used to speak to Dupre, yet the spellbook states that the ritual is used to talk to spirits who died peacefully. Dupre died by jumping into a crematorium to atone for the wanton destruction he was forced to commit while possessed.
