	Once rituals stop teaching, it's time to begin practicing communes. Communes allow you to invoke the powers granted to you by certain Immortals to produce effects as simple as increasing your proficiency at fighting Undead to as complex as creating a temporary holy site that increases the flow of mana for most everyone. Generally, the later you learned a commune, the more devotion it will consume and the more Theurgy it will grant when used. For example, Meraud's commune learned at circle 20 will teach more Theurgy than Hodierna's commune learned at circle 12 or Eluned's commune learned at circle 3. A very effective method of training Theurgy is to consecrate a hunting room using [[Meraud's commune]], then perform [[Cleric_Rituals#Consecrated_ground\|consecrated ground rituals]] (including Last Rites, Prayer, Dance and Poetry) to raise devotion.
