”Are you sure?” I nearly asked her. ”… I feel too brutal sometimes.”
Then, for the first time, I heard her laugh.
She laughed
and she laughed
and she laughed
and I never questioned her again.

Offerings on St. Mary’s Mountain
After coming across this vintage copper lightning rod that had once been struck, I couldnt help myself from acquiring it. It has since been consecrated as an implement of engraving and piercing within magical workings, since an object charged by the fires of heaven in such a manner is a rare and potent vehicle of energetic transmission.
If you're bound to a spirit that takes a dim view of humans in general, in my experience they're not likely going to want to help with workings that involve other people.
Mostly.
There are some exceptions.

Graphic design is my passion
O you door-keepers who guard your portals, who swallow souls and who gulp down the corpses of the dead who pass by you when they are allotted to the House of Destruction, who cause that the soul of every potent, great, and holy spirit shall be led aright to the place of the Silent Land, even he who is a soul like Re, who is praised, and like Osiris who is praised. May you guide [NAME], may you open the portals for him, may the earth open its caverns for him, may you make him triumphant over his enemies. So shall he give gifts to Him of the Duat; he shall make the head-cloth potent for its wearer within the hidden chamber of the image of Horakhty.
“May the soul of the potent spirit be led aright; how mighty is that which is in his hands!”, say the two great and mighty gods concerning [N]. They rejoice over him, they acclaim him with what is in their hands, they give him protection so that he may live. [N] has appeared as a living one who is in the sky, it has been commanded to him to assume his own shape, he is vindicated in the tribunal, and the gates of the sky, earth, and the Netherworld are opened for him as for Re.
[N] says: Open for me the gates of sky, earth, and the Duat, for I am the soul of Osiris, and I am at peace thereby. I pass by their courts and they give praise when they see me; I have gone in favored and I have come out beloved; I have journeyed, and no fault of any kind has been found in me.
