Epigraph

“Bargain-magic is not forbidden so much as ignored.

The Orders have never known what to do with a power born of love,

or desperation, or the simple unwillingness to let another fall.

A bargain bends the Weave not by force, but by devotion,

a truth the Archmages still refuse to acknowledge.

Such magics cannot be taught; they reveal themselves only to those who keep their promises.”

— LOVE AND OTHER UNRULY MAGICS, BY BERNADEA HAWTHORNE
