Magic

Magic practitioners attempt to control the natural environment through spells, rituals, and ceremonies. Some magic rituals attempt to punish offenders using curses, such as the “evil eye” or malevolent spells. Other types of magic attempt to ensure successful crops or bring about good luck or fortune in business and social affairs. A grimoire is a book containing spells or charms which may be used to achieve their goals. Such volumes may also include instructions for creating protective talismans and amulets to protect the wearer from dark magic or harmful spells.
