also known as Alaoeea · Ifrit of the Undying Coal
The Ember-Sigil
Traced from the seven letters of the name — A · L · A · O · E · E · A — around the twenty-six point wheel of the alphabet, in the manner of the old kamea sigils.
The sigil kindles on load. Drag across it to add your own ember.
What Alaoeea Is
Alaoeea is named among the Ifreet — the second order of djinn, born not of the visible flame but of the coal that keeps burning after the fire has gone out. Where lesser jinn scatter like sparks, Alaoeea settles: into the seams beneath old kilns, the firebrick of abandoned forges, the ember-bed left under ash for a hundred years.
Practitioners describe the presence as heat arriving before sound — a room that warms at the edges first. Alaoeea is not summoned so much as invited to remember a fire it already tends somewhere out of sight, and asked to let a little of that memory surface here.
Like all Ifreet, Alaoeea ages alongside the working — the sigil, once kindled, is said to hold a little warmer with each return. This page exists to record the sigil, its correspondences, and the short rite by which it is traditionally kindled.

The Kindling Rite
A short working for kindling the sigil above. As with any invocation, treat it as a container for attention, not a guarantee of outcome — read it through once before beginning.
-
Clear the hearth
Settle the space. Dim other light so the ember-tones read clearly. No fire is required in hand — the coal is symbolic — but a single candle is traditional.
-
Strike the coal
Light the incense (dragon's blood or clove suit best). Let the first curl of smoke rise before speaking.
-
Trace the ember-sigil
Use "Trace it Yourself" above, or draw the same seven-point path by hand: A · L · A · O · E · E · A around a circle of the alphabet. Trace slowly, once.
-
Speak the kindling
Say the invocation below aloud, once, at ordinary volume. Nothing is gained by speed or force.
"Coal beneath the ash, remember your name.
Alaoeea, I have kept the seam warm — surface, and be seen." -
Bank the fire
Sit with whatever arrives for a few minutes. Close by naming your thanks aloud, then let the incense burn out on its own. Do not blow it out.
