Terminate Ritual

I like the idea here, but I am looking for some clarity. Does this mean that you don't know whether the ritual succeeded/flawed/backlashed before determining to terminate? Or only that you can't terminate once the flaw/backlash has been rolled?



"Terminate Ritual: This ability allows the caster to voluntarily end the Ritual casting with no ill effects. At any time during the Ritual, before you know the results of any die rolls, the caster may activate the ability, ending the casting and retaining possession of all the Ritual components and Ritual Scrolls as if the Ritual had not been started. The Ritual may be restarted within 10 minutes. No matter what, a Terminated Ritual will still have the Ritual Scroll and reagents destroyed if the Ritual is not reattempted within this 10 minute period. The caster’s Ritual Strength must exceed the Difficulty of the Ritual to be cast by at least 20. "
 
You must decide whether or not to use Terminate before any die rolls are made.

Once the success/fail die roll is made, regardless of the outcome, Terminate cannot be used.

Terminate is intended to provide an "out" for the physical constraints of ritual casting.
Someone walks into your circle, Terminate.
Circle expires, Terminate.
You forget to designate a target, Terminate.

If you have concerns about the die roll not going in your favor, Casting Insight.
