Grudgery Codex: History of Grudge Exchange & Emotional Commerce
Discover the hidden economy that drives the magical world-where emotions become currency and ancient grudges hold unimaginable power.Do you know the magic it takes to reveal a Grudgery? For over four centuries, these mystical establishments have operated in the shadows of our world-hidden behind aversion enchantments and perceptual folds, where magical practitioners exchange their most potent negative emotions, carefully preserved in enchanted vessels. Most never learn the incantations to even find their doors.
Now, Master Proprietor Grimmet J. Stonetooth breaks centuries of professional silence to reveal not only how to access these concealed establishments, but the secrets of the emotional commerce that drives the magical world.
Drawing from his century of experience at The Bitter Flask Grudgery and his extensive correspondence with magical nobility-including the remarkable case of Duchess Nyla of the Sisters lineage-Stonetooth presents the definitive account of emotional alchemy and magical economics.
