You felt as if the Native American ritual would be some kind of impossible riddle that wouldn't be able to be solved. At least with the African ritual, all you needed were physical items and everything would be set to go.

The list of what you needed made you grimace. Googling some of them led to results of plants that were from far away countries, of which didn't show up on Amazon. You would have to go looking in niche sites for anything that you would need, and if you were to get a fake of anything you were fucked.

You would need the feather of an African Harrier Hawk, ten crushed Dorylus ants, the eye of a lion, and a whole bunch of other shit that you couldn't even pronounce properly. Half of this shit was no doubt super illegal to try and obtain.

You were already having second doubts about going down this route, as you could tell you would be in big shit trouble if you messed up and got caught. Though after much debating in your head, you decided to just go through with it to the end and see if this solution would work.

Luckily you already had experience when it came to browsing the deep web as you had downloaded TOR when you were first looking up stuff about ghosts and phenomenon years earlier. You remember coming across online markets in which various illegal goods were being sold but never paid much attention to them. Those kinds of places would probably be your best shot for getting the materials you needed.

After some hours of re-downloading and testing software on your computer, you were able to recreate the system requirements needed to browse the deep web again. Though it would take even longer to get some good market results, as the site you had found before seemed to be shut down as you searched back up.

As you were getting frustrated with broken link after broken link and endless wiki pages to different sites, you were finally able to come up with two markets in which the materials you needed could most likely be sold. One of these markets even had its own little forum in which you could request products that weren't currently available on the market.

That seemed really fucking sketchy though so you shied away from it, promising yourself to only use it if it came to the last resort.

Anyways you had the choices between Garner.Net and Atlantic Trade.Net, which was the site with the forum to begin your searches.

You atlantic Trade.Net

It's not like you really even needed to touch the forum part of the web-page to access the market portion. You just wanted to get the materials and never touch this side of the web again. Since most of everything you needed was mainly animal parts and some herbs, it meant that filtering through everything else made the whole process a tad bit easier.

What really fucking sucked about this though where all of the prices each of the items on your list were going for on this market. Using your phone as a calculator, you started to add up all the expenses and saw that the total cost of everything would be a few grand.

You didn't even have that kind of money and were past the phase of using your mom's credit card, though even that was only for a few bucks here and there. The money part of this completely went over your head until now, and now you felt as if you were fucked.

An idea hatched though, but that involved the forums and silently cursed thinking of what you were about to get yourself into.
