Ritual from Ray’s dream in Chapter 6, wherein his limbs were willingly removed one at a time by a crying man until only his head and torso remained. Referenced in Gull’s dream in Chapter 8 by the nightmare man.
One of the more sacred holidays of Zon-Kuthon. One of the wealthiest and luckiest of his followers volunteers to have his limbs and non-vital organs removed so that he remains a helpless head and torso, destined to live the rest of his life as the subject of endless torture. It is considered to be a great honor.
Seen again in a psychometry vision in Chapter 144.
