Is there an Arcana requirement to successfully cast rituals? I have tried to cast one, Soul Ablaze, that I have the skill to cast (according to the skill range in my spellbook), but invoking the focus gives an odd message.

"The mana-reactive brass shavings burns with power, but some flaw in your ritual's design prohibits it from feeding the spell pattern."

Relevant skills:
Elemental Magic: 501
Augmentation: 451
Arcana: 216

Also, that should probably be "burn with power" instead of "burns with power".
