alt_hydraBefore I left the castle I wondered at what point your efforts would begin to flag, but now I can see that things aren't moving in that direction.
I discovered splinters of wand wood embedded in the walls and ceiling, so you're cracking the wands with a great deal of force. I already know of your ability to push through exhaustion and extreme conditions and not have your skills be any worse for it, but you're also fueling yourself with the Dark ritual magic.
Bruises and torn clothing indicates that you handle the victims roughly while they're still alive and petrified. Once they're all arranged to your liking (head facing East), you kill the familiars and mark the cardinal points with their blood. Then you start the ritual killings.
The hearts aren't missing because you took them, but because they're gone. You open up their chests, then levitate the heart out, and use a Dark spell that combusts them into nothing, except for the wave of energy that floods over you.
Everything I've seen indicates a level of rage that I've probably never experienced. But everything's also very precise and controlled (not a surprise, by the way). For now, anyway.
I wonder who you're angry at. All of your victims? I think those are just petty grievances. Excuses, maybe.
You know who you're angry at, and so do I.
