=== Six log ritual ===

=== Wireless power ritual ===
Using a generator and an emitter conduit, the generator is selected to power the conduit. Then the object to power is selected through the conduit. When the object turns on, the conduit is removed, to focus the generator on the conduit. The object will then be wirelessly powered by the generator as long as it is active.
The power output of the generator isn't infinite, and the number of wirelessly powered objects are thus limited to the generator's output. Usually, a single generator is used to power only defensive structures such as turrets, in order to prevent confusion in power settings during maintenance.
