WHAT in person
WHERE Heavenly Grounds
WHEN 75!!

[So how do you feel about getting into the holiday spirit? Because with all that wine around from the Bingo victories someone's put a sign up outside Heavenly Grounds today advertising a ~holiday party~ There's festive decorations with mulled wine, hot toddies, spiked egg nog. You name it, it's there to get you plastered.

And I guess there's cookies and fruit cake and stuff too, but who needs food when there's drinking?]

Contracts are one way, but not one I would recommend. That ends in misery more often than not. Many work through prayer or other appeals... But prayer can also give power to divine beings. There's not really one single source of it.

I see...for those in my world, prayer and sacrament are simply another system of thaumaturgy, though a wide-spread and well-established one. The fuel of all such systems is mana.

There's a person at home who has probably studied the systems more thoroughly than I have, but we're not on speaking terms... Magic is a second nature to me, so I haven't made a study of it myself.

I had assumed so, given what you've told me thus far...I can understand why it wouldn't have seemed a pressing inquiry.
