Own it. Love it.
Elves (or Bards) using the system of Energy accumulation with these skills could cast some pretty powerful spells and it all fits together pretty nicely rather then a bunch of different things mixed together. And a play could act out what the spell is supposed to do. So a magical ritual of fertility for the crops could be the story of Persephone for example.

Why, with a ritual for each muse, and a technique for each ritual?

If you have multiple rituals for each muse, then you could specify favorable defaults between their respective techniques. Make this path have few rituals, all of them powerful, so characters have an incentive to buy the techniques above default. That way, each follower of the muse path will be known for the muse(s) in which he specializes.
