To sacrifice something is to either burn it with sacrifire or cover it in soot and the ashen remains of a sacrifice.

A non burning method of bringing things to the incorporealm, when certain items are set apart to be gifted to deities. Undergoing fuliginosis is the act of being covered in the ashes of a sacrifice. Indeed, most cultures in contact with the incorporealm will collect sacrificial ashes and use them to create objects for their deities. Most commonly everyday items such as tools and construction materials. The civilizations will take great care to protect these objects from rain, which would remove the ash and render the ash unusable. 
Fuliginosis doesn't work on living organisms that have functioning gametes, such as living plants. 
Sacrifire works similarly to coating, anything in the fire at the moment of contact with the flame will be transported as is into the Incorporealm.
Being sacrificed means becoming part of the incoporealm, where the sacrificed can interact with deities. Once there the sacrificed will have to survive on whatever is left.
It will have to build shelter, luckily sacrifices are usually made by burning at the stake and so brings wood and string along with the victim.
If a deity wants to take shelter from the elements in its temple, every stone must be sacrificed or sanctified.
Naturally, some cults want to sacrifice the entire world and bring it to the incorporealm. 
There are many strategies to ensure the correct deity receives the sacrifice, as other inhabitants of the incorporealm will try to steal each other's sacrifices. 
== Practical applications of sacrifice ==
Some sacrifices yield no results, and are purely ceremonial, or have a secondary objective that isn't directly linked to a worshipped deity. Some other races justify the sacrifice of animals. In some armies sacrifices are used to justify keeping dragons for military use. Their interpretation is that gods take the anima of the sacrificial animals, and the leftover meat goes to feed the dragons.
