These are some new rituals that may be available in Erithnoi.
Transmute Rock to Mud
As your chanting rises in volume and tempo the wall finally begins to give way. Long rivulets of mud and chunks of stone run down the face of the wall and you and your companions quickly back away as a great swath of masonry comes apart like melting chocolate.

At the completion of this ritual a volume of stone within 20 feet is transmuted to mud. The stone affected must be non-magical, but it can be either natural stone or worked stone as in a masonry wall or statue. Mineral crystals and gems are affected, but metal is not.
The ritual affects a number of squares of stone equal to your Nature check result divided by 5. The effect radiates in all directions from a point chosen by you until it has transmuted all available stone within 20 feet of you or satisfied its volume. This effect happens slowly enough that any creatures in the area that are not immobilized have time to escape.
The area of effect of this ritual will be difficult terrain until the mud hardens, which may take a day or less in very dry conditions or may not happen at all if the area is wet.
This ritual may also be used in reverse, converting mud into soft stone.
