  • Lighting the Candelabrum and ringing the Bell can be performed in either order, but the Book must come last. The Candelabrum will remain lit for much longer than the effect of ringing the Bell, so if you are concerned about being interrupted, it is slightly safer to ring the Bell second. However, ringing the Bell first has the advantage that it conserves one turn of light from the Candelabrum. If you plan on taking the Candelabrum with you—typically for jumping on the Astral Plane—remember to extinguish it after the ritual.

Of all the objects required to perform the ritual, the candles are the only ones that are not guaranteed to appear at any place in the game (although they are likely to show up in Izchak's shop in Minetown, which is guaranteed), and the only items that can be wished for. See the entry for candle for more information.
